Cognito logout does not work as documented

I have a Cognito user pool configured with a SAML identity provider (ADFS) and I'm able to sign it as a federated user (AD) but sign out does not work.

Following the documentation, I make a GET request to https://my-domain.auth.us-west-2.amazoncognito.com/logout?client_id=63...ng&logout_uri=http:%2F%2Fyahoo.com (using some public logout uri), from my client (an AngularJS 1.x app), and I get back a 302 with a Location header like

https://my-domain.auth.us-west-2.amazoncognito.com/login?client_id=63...ng&logout_uri=http:%2F%2Fyahoo.com  

(In fact there I see 2 requests like the above).

When I log back in (thru ADFS) it does not prompt for my AD credentials, i.e. seems that I'm not logged out.

My user pool is configured as described here (see step 7), where the Enable IdP sign out flow is checked, which is supposed to log the user out from ADFS as well.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

This redirect happens whenever logout_uri parameter doesn't match exactly what's listed among Sign out URL(s) in AWS Cognito User Pools App client settings configuration.

Cognito allows logout with either logout_uri or with the same arguments as login (i.e. redirect_uri and response_type) to log out and take the user back to the login screen. It seems that whenever logout_uri is invalid, it assume the re-login flow, does this redirect, and then reports an error about missing login arguments.

As for SAML, I don't know, but guessing that it doesn't work because there was actually an error, just not properly reported.

The /logout endpoint signs the user out.It only supports HTTPS GET. It is working

Sample Requests - Logout and Redirect Back to Client

It clears out the existing session and redirects back to the client. Both parameters are required.

GET https://<YOUR DOMAIN NAME>/logout?
client_id=xxxxxxxxxxxx&
logout_uri=com.myclientapp://myclient/logout

Also make sure that Logout URL is same as SIGNOUT URL in AWS Cognito APP too.

for more information, refer AWS LOGOUT Endpoint

From documentation here

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/logout-endpoint.html

If you want

enter image description here

And your login url is like

"https://xxxx.auth.eu-west-1.amazoncognito.com/login?client_id=1234&response_type=token&scope=aws.cognito.signin.user.admin+email+openid+phone+profile&redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000/"

Then your logout url is like

"https://xxxx.auth.eu-west-1.amazoncognito.com/logout?client_id=1234&logout_uri=http://localhost:3000/";

Note the difference

  • login > login? and redirect_uri
  • logout > logout? and logout_uri

Those redirect / logout uri must match what you have configured inside Cognito.

enter image description here

If you don't do it right, you may get strange errors like

error=unauthorized_client

or

Required String parameter 'response_type' is not present

and who knows what else. :o)
