Question: How do I confirm a user account in Amazon Cognito?

I want to confirm a user account in Amazon Cognito.

ResolutionThere are two ways to confirm a user account in Amazon Cognito:Through email or phone number verificationThrough the administratorBoth of these options set the user status to CONFIRMED.Email or phone number verificationConfigure your Amazon Cognito user pool to require that users provide an email address or phone number when they sign up. Amazon Cognito then sends a verification code to that email address or phone number to confirm the user account.By providing the verification code, the user proves that they have access to the mailbox or phone that received the code. After the user provides the code, Amazon Cognito does the following:Sets the user status to CONFIRMED.Updates the user attributes to indicate that the email address or phone number is verified.For information on how to choose the user contact attribute that Amazon Cognito sends a verification message to, see Verifying contact information at sign-up.Note: If you receive errors when running AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands, make sure that you’re using the most recent AWS CLI version.AWS CLI commands:Signupaws cognito-idp sign-up --client-id 3n4b5urk1ft4fl3mg5e62d9ado --username testuser --password PASSWORD --user-attributes Name="email",Value="jane@example.com" Name="name",Value="Jane"Output{  "UserConfirmed": false,  "UserSub": "e04d60a6-45dc-441c-a40b-e25a787d4862"}Confirm signupaws cognito-idp confirm-sign-up --client-id 3n4b5urk1ft4fl3mg5e62d9ado --username testuser --confirmation-code CONF_CODENote: You must pass --secret-hash in the CLI command if you meet both of the following requirements:Your AWS CLI commands have --client-id as a parameter.The app client is configured with a secret.To calculate the secret hash of an app client, see [How do I troubleshoot "Unable to verify secret hash for client" errors from my Amazon Cognito user pools API?](https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/cognito-unable-to-verify-secret-hash)Administrator verificationTo confirm a user account through administrator verification, use the Amazon Cognito console, or use the AWS CLI API command.Use the Amazon Cognito console:Open the Amazon Cognito console.From the navigation pane, choose User Pools, and then select your user pool.Choose the Users tab, and then select the user that you want to confirm.In the user information page, choose Actions, and then select Confirm Account.Use the AWS CLI command:aws cognito-idp admin-confirm-sign-up --user-pool-id us-west-2_aaaaaaaaa --username testuser
Question: How can I find the IP address ranges that Amazon S3 uses?

I don't know how to find the IP address ranges that Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) uses.

ResolutionFirst, download the JSON file that contains all AWS IP address ranges. Then, search the file for the string "service": "S3".On Linux or macOS machines, you can use a tool, such as the jq tool (on the GitHub website), to parse the JSON response. For example, the following command parses the JSON file for all IPv4 addresses that Amazon S3 uses:curl https://ip-ranges.amazonaws.com/ip-ranges.json | jq -r '.prefixes[] | select(.service=="S3") | .ip_prefix'52.95.154.0/2352.219.64.0/2252.92.72.0/2252.92.64.0/2252.95.156.0/24....As another example, the following command parses the JSON response for all IPv4 addresses that Amazon S3 uses in a specific AWS Region (us-east-1):curl https://ip-ranges.amazonaws.com/ip-ranges.json | jq -r '.prefixes[] | select(.region=="us-east-1") | select(.service=="S3") | .ip_prefix'54.231.0.0/1752.92.16.0/2052.216.0.0/15On Windows operating systems, you can use AWS Tools for PowerShell. The following Get-AWSPublicIpAddressRange command filters for all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses that Amazon S3 uses:Get-AWSPublicIpAddressRange -ServiceKey S3 | select IpPrefixIpPrefix--------52.47.73.72/2913.55.255.216/2952.15.247.208/29......2a05:d07c:2000::/402a05:d000:8000::/402406:dafe:2000::/40...For more examples, see Filtering the JSON file.

Question: How do I CC another email address on account-related correspondence from AWS?

I'd like a copy of my account-related emails to be sent to another email address, as well as the root email address associated with my account.

ResolutionYou can designate a specific email address to receive account-related correspondence by adding that email address as an alternate contact in your AWS account. For instructions, see Adding, changing, or removing alternate contacts.The available alternate contact types are Billing, Operations, and Security. Each email address added to the account receives correspondence only related to their contact type. For example, a Billing alternate contact receives notifications of finalized AWS bills.

Question: How do I resolve the AWS CloudFormation error "Cannot update a stack when a custom-named resource requires replacing"?

When I try to update an AWS CloudFormation stack, I get an error message similar to the following: "CloudFormation cannot update a stack when a custom-named resource requires replacing. Rename 'MYResourceXXX' and update the stack again." How can I resolve this error?Short descriptionThis error typically occurs when a stack update tries to replace resources that have properties with custom names. AWS CloudFormation doesn't replace a resource that has a custom name unless that custom name is changed to a different name. To prevent a stack failure and avoid the error message, change any resources with custom names to use different names before you update a stack.The resolution for this error assumes the following:You're updating an existing stack and not creating a new stack.You're changing the names of existing custom-named resources and not creating new custom-named resources.Resolution1.    In a code editor, open the AWS CloudFormation template for the stack that you want to update.2.    Replace the names, or values, of any resource properties that have custom names with different names.Note: In the following example, the DBInstanceIdentifier property of the MyRDS resource is set to the custom name PRODdb. The AWS CloudFormation stack can't be successfully updated until the name PRODdb is changed to a different name, such as PRODdb1. Or, you can omit the DBInstanceIdentifier property from your template. That way, AWS CloudFormation generates a unique physical ID to use for the DB instance."MyRDS": {    "Type": "AWS::RDS::DBInstance",    "Properties": {        "DBInstanceClass": "db.m3.medium",        "Engine": "MySQL",        "DBInstanceIdentifier": "PRODdb",        "AllocatedStorage": "10",        "AutoMinorVersionUpgrade": "true",        "BackupRetentionPeriod": "0",    …    …    }}Important: When you rename a custom-named resource, AWS CloudFormation replaces that resource. For more information, see Name type. Replacement of certain resources can cause data loss without proper backup. For more information, see Replacement.3.    Save the changes to your AWS CloudFormation template, and then use the template to update your stack.

Question: How do I turn on Multi-AZ with automatic failover in my ElastiCache for Redis cluster?

I want to improve fault tolerance for my ElastiCache for Redis cluster. What are the benefits of Multi-AZ and automatic failover and how do I turn them on?ResolutionBenefits of Multi-AZ with automatic failoverThe main benefits of using Multi-AZ set up with automatic failover are the minimization of administrative needs and enhancing the availability of your cluster. When Multi-AZ and automatic failover are turned on, Amazon ElastiCache automatically detects failure. ElastiCache then promotes one of the replica nodes as a new primary without your involvement.Having both the primary and replica nodes in the same Availability Zone doesn't make your Redis replication group resilient to Availability Zone disruption. Redis clusters with Multi-AZ turned on can have nodes in different Availability Zones. In the event of Availability Zone failure, your primary node fails over to another Availability Zone if automatic failover is turned on.You're covered by the Amazon ElastiCache Service Level Agreement that's provided to clusters with the Multi-AZ feature turned on.Turn on Multi-AZ with automatic failoverYou can turn on Multi-AZ when creating a cluster. Or, you can modify an existing cluster with an existing replication group. For instructions, see Minimizing down time in ElastiCache for Redis with Multi-AZ.Note: You can create your Redis cluster without turning on Multi-AZ, but this reduces fault tolerance. And, in the unlikely event of an Availability Zone failure or loss of network connectivity, the node becomes unavailable. Using ElastiCache for Redis replication together with Multi-AZ and automatic failover provides increased availability and fault tolerance. If automatic failover is turned off, you can manually failover from one Availability Zone to another. For more information, see Testing automatic failover.

Question: How do I transfer ownership of Amazon RDS resources to a different AWS account?

I want to transfer ownership of Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) resources from one Amazon Web Services (AWS) account to a different AWS account. How can I do this?Short descriptionYou can't transfer resources between accounts. However, you can migrate Amazon RDS resources to another account.By sharing cross-account snapshots, you can share snapshots of an unencrypted DB instance with a specific account, or you can make snapshots public. There are some limitations for sharing snapshots of an encrypted DB instance. For more information, see Sharing a DB snapshot.Note: AWS Support doesn't have access to copy Amazon RDS resources or modify any configurations in AWS accounts.

ResolutionTo migrate Amazon RDS resources to another account, follow these instructions:Create a DB snapshot.Share the snapshot with the target account.In the target account, create a new DB instance by restoring the DB snapshot.To share only one database (not a whole DB instance), or to share an encrypted snapshot with a persistent option, such as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), you must export all the data from the source database instance. Then, you must import the data into the target database instance.

Question: Why is some EC2 instance capacity missing on my Outpost?

I'm using AWS Outposts to run multiple Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances. Why is the number of EC2 instances running on my Outpost less than the actual capacity?Short descriptionThe following Amazon CloudWatch metrics report the number of specific EC2 instance types available and used on your Outpost:AvailableInstanceType_CountUsedInstanceType_CountIn some cases, the AvailableInstanceType_Count metric is zero. But, the number of EC2 instances running on your Outposts doesn't equal the actual capacity shown by the UsedInstanceType_Count metric.

ResolutionThis discrepancy happens when using AWS-managed services on your Outpost. Examples of AWS-managed services are Application Load Balancers or Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS). When used on Outposts, these types of services consume EC2 capacity but their associated instances aren't visible in your EC2 Dashboard. The UsedInstanceType_Count metric is the sum of your instances and any AWS-managed services instances running on your Outpost.View the RDS Management console to confirm the number of RDS instances running on your Outpost.

Question: How do I delete an AWS Directory Service directory?

I want to delete my AWS Directory Service directory.

ResolutionFor instructions on how to delete a directory, see Delete your directory. Before you get started, note the following:If you delete a Microsoft Active Directory (AD) directory or a Simple AD, all the directory data and snapshots are deleted and can't be recovered. Any instances that are joined to the directory aren't affected, but you can't log in to them using your directory credentials.You might need to perform additional steps to delete your directory based on the AWS applications connected to the directory (if any). This includes disabling AWS Management Console access, if you previously enabled it.

Question: How do I resolve the AccessDeniedException error when I use the create-group AWS CLI command to create QuickSight groups?

I get the following error message when I try to create Amazon QuickSight groups using the create-group AWS CLI command:"An error occurred (AccessDeniedExeption) when calling the CreateGroup operation: Group operations are not enabled for this account"Short descriptionThe CreateGroup operation error occurs when you use Active Directory Connector (AD Connector) to sign in to Amazon QuickSight. QuickSight manages only the identities that are created and maintained in QuickSight. If AD Connector is set up, then AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory (AWS Managed Microsoft AD) groups are used to map users to admin, author, and reader roles. You can't use the create-group AWS Command Line Interface command to create QuickSight managed groups when managing users through AWS Managed Microsoft AD.

ResolutionUse AWS Managed Microsoft AD to create groupsYou can create at least three groups after you establish your Active Directory:Amazon QuickSight adminsAmazon QuickSight authorsAmazon QuickSight readersNote: Only the Enterprise edition of QuickSight supports AD Connector and AWS Managed Microsoft AD. To learn more about using AWS Managed Microsoft AD users and groups, see Best practices for AWS Managed Microsoft AD.Use AWS CLI Command to create groupsTo create and manage QuickSight groups using the AWS CLI, you must unsubscribe from QuickSight. Then re-subscribe, and change the tool you use to identify and access QuickSight.Note: Unsubscribing deletes all QuickSight users, data, and assets.

Question: Why are the forecasted costs in my Billing and Cost Management console unexpectedly high?

The forecasted costs in my AWS Billing and Cost Management console predict an unexpectedly high bill for me.

ResolutionMost AWS services bill on demand, meaning that your overall bill steadily increases over the course of a month. However, some services or features bill a larger amount at one time, usually on or near the first of the month.Your forecasted usage for the rest of the month might appear to be higher than you expect. This is because your average daily cost is higher at the beginning of the month. As the month progresses, the forecast shows a more accurate prediction of your final monthly bill.

Question: "When does AWS release new SOC reports, and how can I download the latest report using AWS Artifact?"

I want access to the latest AWS System and Organization Controls (SOC) reports. The SOC reporting period isn't current. When are new SOC reports going to be available?Short descriptionSOC reports are audits performed over a time period and don't expire. AWS auditors perform SOC audits twice a year over a period of 6 months: Oct 1–Mar 31 and Apr 1–Sept 30. When the audit period is over, AWS auditors prepare the audit report and release the report in May and November. You can also download the SOC Continued Operations Letter, which states that AWS continues to maintain the security controls and system environment audited and described in the latest SOC reports.Note: AWS publishes a Continued Operations Letter SOC report instead of a bridge or gap letter. For more information, see Compliance reports.

ResolutionTo access SOC 1 and 2 reports and the Continued Operations Letter, see Downloading reports in AWS Artifact. If you can't download the SOC reports or Continued Operations Letter, then see Tips to troubleshoot common issues.Note: The SOC 3 report is publicly available as a whitepaper. For more information and to download, see the AWS SOC 3 section in AWS System and Organization Controls (SOC) reports FAQs.Important: Share AWS Artifact documents only with those you trust. AWS Artifact reports have a unique, traceable watermark that's specific to you. Don't email reports or share them online. Instead, use a secure authenticated sharing service with auditing capabilities, such as Amazon WorkDocs.

Question: How do I monitor the usage of my AWS API calls using Amazon CloudWatch?

I receive a "Rate exceeded" error message when I try to create, update, or access an AWS service. How can I monitor the number of AWS API calls I make using Amazon CloudWatch metrics to prevent "Rate exceeded" errors?Short descriptionThere is a limit on the number of AWS API calls that you can make per second. After you exceed this limit, you receive a Rate exceeded error, and further API calls are throttled. For more information on determining the API call that is causing a Rate exceeded error, see How can I find which AWS API call is causing a "Rate Exceeded" error?If you are using API calls in automation, it's a best practice to monitor your usage to avoid Rate exceeded errors. Amazon CloudWatch collects metrics that track the usage of some AWS services. These metrics correspond to AWS service quotas. Follow the steps in this article to graph these metrics and visualize your usage.

ResolutionUse this method to check and monitor your usage for all AWS resources that publish usage metrics. This example uses the PutMetricData.Check the default limits of the PutMetricData API call in the CloudWatch service quotas documentation. You can also check your account applied limit using the Service Quotas console.Open the CloudWatch console.In the navigation pane, choose Metrics, and then choose All metrics.Usage metrics are published under the Namespace AWS/Usage. Choose this namespace, and then filter for the API call you want to graph. In this case, choose PutMetricData.Choose the metric CallCount. This metric gives a count of the number of times that an API operation is made.Choose Graphed metrics, and then choose the time range that you want to check your usage for. In this case, choose the range where you received a Rate exceeded error.For Period, choose 1 minute, and for Statistic choose SUM. This gives the total number of API calls made every minute. Note: Most API calls have a limit on the number of API calls made per second. This is measured as Transactions per Second (TPS). For PutMetricData, the limit is 150 TPS.To view your current usage, choose Add math, and then choose Start with empty expression.In a new row, enter the following:SERVICE_QUOTA(m1)
