This project is intended to run from AWS Amplify, using Cognito as the log in mechanism with users configured to have specialized groups representing their Call Center permissions for various AWS Connect instances. This works in concert with the Lambda defined for generating SAML Responses for Connect. Then, once a user logs in to Cognito, this site should help them (within zero to two clicks) get federated and logged in to their desired Connect instance.

This site relies on some environment variables:

• NEXT_PUBLIC_SAML_GENERATION_URL

  The URL for the APIGateway connection to the SAML Response generating Lambda mentioned above

• NEXT_PUBLIC_COGNITO_HOSTED_UI_URL

  The base URL for the Hosted UI Cognito sign-in page associated with this User Pool's application (the current working User Pool is "Cognito for Connect Call Centers" (ID: us-east-1_AZyvZQdFN) and the "App integration" client is "Amplify App")

• NEXT_PUBLIC_COGNITO_CLIENT_ID

  The Client ID of the App Integration - App Client (from the "Amplify App" client)

• NEXT_PUBLIC_COGNITO_REDIRECT_URI

  The URL of this web app

  Note: This must be configured here as well as inside Cognito, in the User Pool, in the App client, under "Hosted UI", under "Allowed callback URLs", and it should also be reflected in the Invitation Message under "Messaging"

• NEXT_PUBLIC_SSO_DEFAULT_DURATION

  The session duration to use for the SSO session requested by the generated SAML (in seconds)

• NEXT_PUBLIC_AWS_SAML_ENDPOINT

  The SAML endpoint for Connect SSO sessions (should be "https://signin.aws.amazon.com/saml")

This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.
