How do I use AWS cognito response to authenticate API requests

I am building a web app that authenticates via AWS Cognito, and uses an existing API gateway configuration to talk to Lambda functions.

In my app, when I authenticate, I get the following data back from Cognito:

The sample headers I've been given to authenticate to the Amazon API gateway look like this (x's added for obfuscation):

Content-type: application/json
Host: <API Gateway host>
X-Amz-DateL <Date>
Authorization:
AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=XXXXXXXXXXXX/20170222/ap-southeast-2/execute-api/aws4_request, SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-amz-date, Signature=f25e2a18d8c81fe9e7XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXb7d586d24a3e39
Access_key:XXXXXXXX (this is a large string)

My question is what information do I need from my cognito result to craft the headers that I need to connect to the api?

I'm using Vue.js as a Javascript front end, and I've looked at the AWS SDK for Javascript but not sure if that helps me - for the moment I feel crafting the headers manually may be easier?


I believe what you're trying to do is authorize your already authenticated users. Explanation of the difference between authorization and authentication can be found here

In the case of authorization , you can create a Custom Authorizer. However, since you're using Amazon Cognito, be sure to create a Cognito User Pool Authorizer

Essentially, you'll use the IdToken from Cognito and pass it as the Authorization header to your authorizer function.
