AWS Cognito - Resend Verification Link to an User - amazon-cognito

I'm building an application with AWS Cognito and AWS AppSync.
My Problem:
I want to an User, after signUp, for some reason (not important) he did not receive the Verification E-mail (which is a Link, not a Code).
The user goes back to the application and asks for another Verification E-mail.
Tried:
I tried the following solutions,
-> Using resendConfirmationCode function of AWS-SDK.
-> Using Auth Amplify API with the function resendSignUp[
-> Using the following npm package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/amazon-cognito-identity-js) Use Case #3
I Always end up on this message: "Cannot reset password for the user as there is no registered/verified email or phone_number"
I want that the function resends the verification Link to an User, so he does not have a E-mail verified yet.
What do I expect?
If the user does not receive an E-mail with the verification Link, he can use a function to call again for this e-mail.
As I'm working with Links, I would rather prefer a Link for this, but if is not possible, a Code will be fine, and I change it on Cognito Lambda-Triggers.
Hope you guys be able to help me :)

How do you send an HTML envelope to a user via email, from a headless API, that has not created an account on DOCUSIGN?

I'm sure I am missing something here but...
I have an angular application that allows users to fill out forms. The application calls a backend NODEJS service that has a responsibility of building the HTML envelope and document to sign. This back-end service does not have access to a browser.
I have 2 options for flow:
User fills out form -> clicks sign button -> back-end service called to gather the url for the user to redirect to in order to get a code back (consent) -> USER DOES NOT LOGIN TO DOCUSIGN -> redirect back to application -> get token with users code -> prepare envelope on BEHALF of the user -> send application the ceremony URL -> user redirects to ceremony -> signs document -> redirect back to application.
*User fills out form -> clicks sign button -> back-end service called to create envelope and tell DOCUSIGN to send an EMAIL to the user which I don't want to sign up for DOCUSIGN. (Effectively removing the need for them to create an account with DOCUSIGN because I am sending an email and they can authenticate him by knowing he is coming from his own email). -> user signs document through email -> (Would be nice for application to get redirected back to but not necessary)
All examples and chats I have seen discuss only having to login one time. Well in flow 1, I don't want the USER, signing the document, to login or have to make an account for this one signing. And in flow 2, I can't seem to grasp how to keep the back-end service authenticated if it is a BACK-END service. It's headless. No Browser.
These guys are so large that I figure it's something I'm not grasping here.
I understand to impersonate the user, I would need his consent. And possibly... because they don't KNOW the user without him signing up for an account to verify his email, they can't offer consent to a user they can't verify email with. So if that is the case, I would want to authenticate my BACK-END user to send emails so they can just click the email, it MIGHT verify in DOCUSIGN without having to sign up for account, and offer the contract to the user to sign on the spot from the email WITHOUT asking for credentials or NEW account.
If you are going to answer this with a link back to DOCUSIGN authentication examples. Or suggest use a JWT to authenticate from BACK-END services... please explain in detail the steps to authenticate my BACK-END user and keep him authenticated without using a web-browser or how to use the users consent from a redirect from DOCUSIGN without the user having to EVER create an account.
I have tried sending the user to the redirect URL with success if they already have their credentials cached in browser or already have a DOCUSIGN user. The flow works fine there. I get the users code, exchange it for token, create envelope, redirect user to ceremony, redirect back to application after signing complete.
I have read a bunch of articles that all point back to DOCUSIGN help with authenticating 1 of 3 ways with a browser. I need no browser login, or a better understanding of how to avoid the user creating a DOCUSIGN account.
Thank you so much!
Signer, user that signs, does NOT need to have a DocuSign account. They do not need to log in to DocuSign in order to sign. They can sign via email or embedded in your app, but they do NOT need to have an account or log in.
Your app's back end needs an access token to make API calls. This doesn't change the headless nature or the fact that it's back end. A token is a long string that your app uses to authenticate. This authentication is tied to a user in DocuSign that has an account. That is NOT the user that signs, but the user that make the API call. You have to have a user that makes an API call.
You can get a token using JWT authentication and your back end can generate it using the Node.js SDK (npm package) without the need for UI or for anyone to log in.

"Send With DocuSign" URL Button Works In Sandbox But Not Production

An APEX email error is received when trying to utilize the "Send With DocuSign" URL button on the contract object in Salesforce. This button was just created to meet the requirements to move from a JavaScript button. The button does not trigger an error in Sandbox, works as expected. But I can not replicate in production without getting the error shown below. Any idea on how to get this resolved?
Developer script exception from Franklin Madison Group : DocuSignAPICredentials : Please verify that you have been granted access to DocuSign, your account settings are correct and that you have responded to all activation emails.
Apex script unhandled exception by user/organization: 0053n000007GFbq/00D70000000Je65

Class.dsfs.AccountFeatures.getInstance: line 139, column 1
Class.dsfs.EnvelopeController.loadEnvelope: line 164, column 1
Cause
Common causes for the issue are listed below,
The DocuSign user associated with the Salesforce user sending the envelope is not active
The Salesforce user has not been added to the DocuSign users list in DocuSign Setup settings (in Salesforce)
You are attempting to use Salesforce Login Access on behalf of a user "not yet Authorized DocuSign eSignature for Salesforce (DAL)"
Note: If the user hasn't authorized already, please refer to Step 4 in this article
Solution
Before continuing, ensure that you are on the most recent version of DocuSign eSignature for Salesforce (DAL). If you are on an outdated version, some of these steps will be unavailable.
To resolve this error, you’ll need to verify both issues that cause this error has been addressed.
First, you’ll need to verify that this Salesforce user has been added to DocuSign.
To verify if a Salesforce user has been added properly:
Navigate to DocuSign Setup.
Select User Management, then select Add User.
Enter the name of the user in the Value box. When they appear in the search results, select the checkbox next to their name and select Continue.
Assign the appropriate permissions to the user and select Apply. If your package is up to date and a DocuSign user already exists for this user, the Salesforce user will be mapped to their existing DocuSign user.
Click Done to finish.
Second, verify that the DocuSign user associated with this Salesforce account is active.
To check if a user is active in DocuSign:
Navigate to the DocuSign web app and select Settings.
Navigate to Users and search for the user in question.
If the user is not active, select Actions > Resend Invitation to send the invite to the user again.
To activate a user:
The User will need to navigate to their email client and open the invitation email.
Click the link in the email to activate.
Create a password and security question.
Once the user is active, have the user attempt to send an envelope from Salesforce to confirm the issue is resolved.
Additional Troubleshooting
If the DAL Admin and all users are noticing the same error, try to disconnect and reconnect.
Steps to Disconnect [Note: Disconnecting accounts will remove the DocuSign Gen and DocuSign Negotiate permissions for the Salesforce users that were given access under the old connection. You have to re-add DocuSign users and permissions in your organization.]
Steps to Reconnect
If the Salesforce Administrator attempting to make this change is unable to access the DocuSign Setup object, ensure that they have the correct permission set assignment to access the object.
To view permission set assignments in Salesforce:
Navigate to Setup, select Users.
Navigate to the user in question and open their profile.
Navigate to Permission Set Assignments, if the DocuSign permissions are missing, edit the section and add DocuSign Administrator.
Note: If you are running both DocuSign Apps Launcher and legacy DocuSign eSignature for Salesforce, you will see duplicate permission sets with similar names. Add both to ensure correct permissions are applied to the user.
Retest to see if the user can access DocuSign Setup. If it’s still failing, follow the steps in this article to navigate to the DocuSign Troubleshooting page and select Delete DocuSign Credentials. You should then be able to navigate to DocuSign Setup and reestablish the connection between DocuSign and Salesforce.

AWS Amplify: How to resend code when Auth 'signIn' API returns 'UserNotConfirmedException'

I have an unconfirmed aws cognito user which did not verify his email during registration process. When he tries to login with following code:
Auth.signIn({
username:email,
password:password,
})
the API returns
'UserNotConfirmedException'
Now at this point the user is unauthenticated, there is no current session or current user. How will this user be able to verify himself and get himself logged in?
'verifyCurrentUserAttribute' and 'resendSignUp' APIs do not work for unauthenticated user.
Please help.
Late response but just saw this: The Auth.resendSignUp(<username>) does not need an authenticated user and is suited for this purpose. It accepts a username parameter as a string and when called will send a new code to the method configured in Cognito.
The right API endpoint for confirming a signup is confirmsignup
see : https://aws-amplify.github.io/amplify-js/api/classes/authclass.html#confirmsignup
This entpoint requires an email address and the code. The user can thereby confirm his signup later with the code he has received.

Login to Sharepoint Online failure

We have a code that logins to Sharepoint Online using :
https://login.microsoftonline.com/extSTS.srf or https://login.microsoftonline.com/RST2.srf, but recently we starting to get authentication failed saying that "Incorrect Username or Password" and after some retries it returns:
"0x80048823 message : AADSTS70002: Error validating credentials. AADSTS50053: You've tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect user ID or password."
While using same username and password to login in the browser works fine, and neither password or username were changed, also code didn't changed. As same code works fine for another Sharepoint tenants. Seems that something changed in the Microsoft login servers, where it's started to not accept user credentials, while web browser login works fine.
Please advise.
Thanks
Microsoft Rep has helped me get this far.
They had us create a "Cloud Only" user. This user was setup as "#" so if your name is bill and your corporate sharepoint site is name is FakeCompany.sharepoint.com then you would have the person as "bill#FakeCompany.onmicrosoft.com"
This user was able to login to https://login.microsoftonline.com/extSTS.srf by just passing username and password.
Our on prem AD users are still having issues, i mentioned this and got the following response.
There is no issue with sync as you are able to login to portal using the same account and password.
The solution you need is documented in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/configure-authentication-for-federated-users-portal#enable-direct-authentication-for-legacy-applications
You need to create a home realm discovery (HRD) policy where "AllowCloudPasswordValidation":true.
We have not yet implemented the last solution but the creating of a cloud account may help some of you.
So I think I understand what they are trying to say. There are 2 paths that you are able to authenticate with according to the node-sp-auth example.
"Managed" and "Federated"
"Managed" was the easier version and allowed for you to be able to just provide username and credentials in a soap assertion to login.
Federated is a lot more complicated. You need to first perform a post to Microsoft to validate the user hitting your adfs server. https://adfs.XXXXXXX.com/adfs/services/trust/13/usernamemixed
Then you take the saml:Assertion from that response and put it into the "Token" section of the call you make to https://login.microsoftonline.com/extSTS.srf utilizing the templates from the node-sp-auth.
I have C# code that performs all these steps but I am getting an error
AADSTS70002: Error validating credentials. AADSTS50008: SAML token is invalid. AADSTS50006: Invalid signature. Signature verification failed.
Even though the signature is being generated by Microsoft in their SAML.
node-sp-auth code refrence is OnlineUserCredential.ts file.
If someone can figure out the last mile I can post a comprehensive C# solution.

How to authenticate user with just a Google account on Actions on Google?

Currently Google Assitant includes an easy way to request non-identifiable information about the user and a detailed flow to authenticate the user on a third party service through OAuth2. What about if all I need is have the user authenticate on Google itself? I tried filling in the account linking flow using Google OAuth2 information, but that seems not to work. If that last thing is supposed to work fluently than that would be enough of an answer.
Context: Users already authenticate only with Google on a related webpage. All I need is to link this already authenticated account with the less-authenticated account on Google Assistant.
Update, 25 Oct 2018:
As of 13 September 2018, there is now a much simpler way to access the user's account if your project uses Google Sign-In. Google Sign-In for Assistant will give you an ID Token with information about the user, including their Google ID, with their permission. This permission can be granted just using voice and is fairly streamlined.
You can combine this with a web- or app-based Google Sign-In to get their permission to access OAuth scopes if you need to access Google's APIs.
Update, 25 Oct 2017:
As of around 4 Oct or 7 Oct, Google has updated their policy (again) to restore language restricting OAuth endpoints that are valid. The terms now include
When implementing account linking using OAuth, you must own your OAuth endpoint
and it appears (from the comments below) that they now check for the Google endpoints to prevent this method from working.
At this point, the only thing you can do is setup your own OAuth2 server.
Original Post:
Broadly speaking, the auth tasks you need to do are in four parts:
Configure your project (in the cloud console) so that the Calendar API is enabled and that the OAuth2 client is correctly configured.
Configure the Action for account linking in the action console.
Configure the Actions on Google Integration for your API.AI Agent to indicate that sign-in is required.
When API.AI calls your webhook to fulfill an Intent, it will include an auth token as part of the JSON. You can use this token to make calls to the Google APIs you need.
Configure Cloud Project
You need to configure your cloud project so that it has access to the Google APIs you need and setup the OAuth2 Client ID, Secret, and Redirect URI.
Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/dashboard and make sure you have the project you're working with selected. Then make sure you have the APIs you need enabled.
Select the "Credentials" menu on the left. You should see something like this:
Select "Create credentials" and then "OAuth client ID"
Select that this is for a "Web application" (it is... kinda...)
Enter a name. In the screen shot below, I used "Action client" so I remember that this is actually for Actions on Google.
In the "Authorized Redirect URIs" section, you need to include a URI of the form https://oauth-redirect.googleusercontent.com/r/your-project-id replacing the "your-project-id" part with... your project ID in the Cloud Console. At this point, the screen should look something like this:
Click the "Create" button and you'll get a screen with your Client ID and Secret. You can get a copy of these now, but you can also get them later.
Click on "Ok" and you'll be taken back to the "Credentials" screen with the new Client ID added. You can click the pencil icon if you ever need to get the ID and Secret again (or reset the secret if it has been compromised).
Configure the Action Console
Once we have OAuth setup for the project, we need to tell Actions that this is what we'll be using to authenticate and authorize the user.
Go to https://console.actions.google.com/ and select the project you'll be working with.
In the Overview, make your way through any configuration necessary until you can get to Step 4, "Account Linking". This may require you to set names and icons - you can go back later if needed to correct these.
Select the Grant Type of "Authorization Code" and click Next.
In the Client Information section, enter the Client ID and Client Secret from when you created the credentials in the Cloud Console. (If you forget, go to the Cloud Console API Credentials section and click on the pencil.)
For the Authorization URL, enter https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth
For the Token URL, enter https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token
Click Next
You now configure your client for the scopes that you're requesting. Unlike most other places you enter scopes - you need to have one per line. Then click Next.
You need to enter testing instructions. Before you submit your Action, these instructions should contain a test account and password that the review team can use to evaluate it. But you can just put something there while you're testing and then hit the Save button.
Configure API.AI
Over in API.AI, you need to indicate that the user needs to sign-in to use the Action.
Go to https://console.api.ai/ and select the project you're working with.
Select "Integrations" and then "Actions on Google". Turn it on if you haven't already.
Click the "Sign in required for welcome intent" checkbox.
Handle things in your webhook
After all that setup, handling things in your webhook is fairly straightforward! You can get an OAuth Access Token in one of two ways:
If you're using the JavaScript library, calling app.getUser().authToken
If you're looking at the JSON body, it is in originalRequest.data.user.accessToken
You'll use this Access Token to make calls against Google's API endpoints using methods defined elsewhere.
You don't need a Refresh Token - the Assistant should hand you a valid Access Token unless the user has revoked access.
After contacting Google the current situation seems to be that you should set up your own OAuth2 server, and then on the login screen of your OAuth2 server you should start the Google OAuth2 flow.
you have to have your own endpoint with Google Oauth2 - it is correct that you can't use Google Oauth itself as a provider. To use the Google OAuth service, you can use a "sign in with Google" button in your own endpoint instead.
Source: Contacting Google Actions on Google Support
Kind of speechless right now... as this seems to be a huge oversight on Google's part.
I am able to make it work after a long time.
We have to enable the webhook first and we can see how to enable the webhook in the dialog flow fulfillment docs
If we are going to use Google Assistant, then we have to enable the Google Assistant Integration in the integrations first.
Then follow the steps mentioned below for the Account Linking in actions on google:-
Go to google cloud console -> APIsand Services -> Credentials -> OAuth 2.0 client IDs -> Web client -> Note the client ID, client secret from there
-> Download JSON - from json note down the project id, auth_uri, token_uri
-> Authorised Redirect URIs -> White list our app's URL -> in this URL fixed part is https://oauth-redirect.googleusercontent.com/r/ and append the project id in the URL
-> Save the changes
Actions on Google -> Account linking setup
1. Grant type = Authorisation code
2. Client info
1. Fill up client id,client secrtet, auth_uri, token_uri
2. Enter the auth uri as https://www.googleapis.com/auth and token_uri as https://www.googleapis.com/token
3. Save and run
4. It will show an error while running on the google assistant, but dont worry
5. Come back to the account linking section in the assistant settings and enter auth_uri as https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth
and token_uri as https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token
6. Put the scopes as https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile and https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email
and weare good to go.
7. Save the changes.
In the hosting server logs, we can see the access token value and through access token, we can get the details regarding the email address.
Append the access token to this link "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo?access_token=" and we can get the required details in the resulting json page.
accessToken = req.get("originalRequest").get("data").get("user").get("accessToken")
r = requests.get(link)
print("Email Id= " + r.json()["email"])
print("Name= " + r.json()["name"])
You need to implement the Oauth protocol with whatever Google Assistant app you are developing. Let me be a bit more clear:
The user is on the assistant, you need to link him to any data
you have on your App side
The access to the data you have about
your user is protected by an access token
Google then needs to
ask you for this token to have access to this resource
When
google has the token it can send it to the app so it validates every
requests to get the resource.
This is why you need to implement your own oauth server (Honestly it is just two more endpoints in your application): the identity is checked on google's side, but the link between the user and the resource to access can only be known by you.
The process above is valid, you just need to specify your own token endpoint and your own auth endpoint.
Note that if you only want to check that the user is logged in into google and get his email, you just need to implement the streamlined identity flow that does not require the /auth endpoint (Automatically Sign Up Users with Streamlined Identity Flows)
That beeing said I implemented the flow but get the same error :
expected_inputs[0].possible_intents[0]: Transactions/Identity API must be enabled before using.
