  title: 'Amazon Cognito Identity Provider #X Amz Target=AWSCognitoIdentityProviderService.ListGroups API'
  description: <p>With the Amazon Cognito user pools API, you can set up user pools and app clients, and authenticate users. To authenticate users from third-party identity providers (IdPs) in this API, you can <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-user-pools-identity-federation-consolidate-users.html">link IdP users to native user profiles</a>. Learn more about the authentication and authorization of federated users in the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-userpools-server-contract-reference.html">Using the Amazon Cognito user pools API and user pool endpoints</a>.</p> <p>This API reference provides detailed information about API operations and object types in Amazon Cognito. At the bottom of the page for each API operation and object, under <i>See Also</i>, you can learn how to use it in an Amazon Web Services SDK in the language of your choice.</p> <p>Along with resource management operations, the Amazon Cognito user pools API includes classes of operations and authorization models for client-side and server-side user operations.
