I have created an Elastic Beanstalk web app that uses Amazon Cognito and its user pool and Hosted UI for sign-in before the user can reach a page with the form. I currently have my own domain and SSL certificate for the app so the sign-in can be done via a secure connection. The issue is that the YAML file needed to use Amazon Cognito gives me this error:
Failed to bind properties under 'spring.security.oauth2.client.registration.clientsecret' to org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.oauth2.client.OAuth2ClientProperties$Registration:
Reason: No converter found capable of converting from type [java.lang.String] to type [org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.oauth2.client.OAuth2ClientProperties$Registration]
The YAML file structure looks like this:
spring:
security:
oauth2:
client:
registration:
cognito:
clientId: 47earg9gbo****
clientSecret: bbvgpirvegmnr4gp4sunmp****
scope: openid, email, aws.cognito.signin.user.admin, phone
redirectUriTemplate: https://authorise.student.co.uk
clientName: spring-boot
provider:
cognito:
issuerUri: https://cognito-idp.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/eu-west-2_BnR5***
What I have done to try to fix this issue was recreated the whole user pool for Amazon Cognito and update the configuration of the pom.xml (<--spring has proposed this in the error message) file that looks as such:
