     3  // Package cognitoidentity provides the client and types for making API
     4  // requests to Amazon Cognito Identity.
     5  //
     6  // Amazon Cognito Federated Identities is a web service that delivers scoped
     7  // temporary credentials to mobile devices and other untrusted environments.
     8  // It uniquely identifies a device and supplies the user with a consistent identity
     9  // over the lifetime of an application.
    10  //
    11  // Using Amazon Cognito Federated Identities, you can enable authentication
    12  // with one or more third-party identity providers (Facebook, Google, or Login
    13  // with Amazon) or an Amazon Cognito user pool, and you can also choose to support
    14  // unauthenticated access from your app. Cognito delivers a unique identifier
    15  // for each user and acts as an OpenID token provider trusted by AWS Security
    16  // Token Service (STS) to access temporary, limited-privilege AWS credentials.
    17  //
    18  // For a description of the authentication flow from the Amazon Cognito Developer
    19  // Guide see Authentication Flow (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/authentication-flow.html).

    28  // Using the Client
    29  //
    30  // To contact Amazon Cognito Identity with the SDK use the New function to create
    31  // a new service client. With that client you can make API requests to the service.
    32  // These clients are safe to use concurrently.
    33  //
    34  // See the SDK's documentation for more information on how to use the SDK.
