First time poster. Have been working through "The Basics" Guide and getting caught up on the "Adding Auth to a React app" Section -- specifically https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/create-a-login-page.html Running into an “Authentication Failed” alert while attempting to actually log into the admin@example.com user we create earlier on in the tutorial. (see screenshot) Branch repo: https://github.com/rd-demos/demo-notes-app/tree/adding-auth-to-a-react-app Also created a discourse comment with some more verbose details: https://discourse.serverless-stack.com/t/login-with-aws-cognito/129/70?u=rdhrty Was curious to see if anyone else had run into this previously / had any thoughts on what I may have missed here / bungled up with my Frontend/Auth stack set up or Amplify set up. Thanks for any insight!

The configuration object is missing required auth properties

This part of the error implies an problem with this section - https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/configure-aws-amplify.html#add-aws-amplify - have you configured the

Auth

part of the config, and have the values resolved properly? If you

console.log

that

Auth

part, you should see your cognito values in there, like the user pool ID etc.

Ah... Yes, seems like all of those values are getting returned as

undefined

when I

console.log

that out via the catch clause in

Login.js

... I am however seeing those values populate in the output from

npx sst start

(

REACT_APP_API_URL

,

REACT_APP_USER_POOL_ID

) -- so I'm curious if I've done something wrong with the

config.js

file we create in that step, since it doesn't seem to be resolving those env values correctly for the React app.

Did you do this part 🙂 this is what takes the variables from SST (which you’re seeing in the console), and makes them available to the react development server - https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/create-a-new-reactjs-app.html#loading-sst-environment-variables

🙈 🙈 🙈 re-generated the frontend directory at some point while troubleshooting another issue and forgot to change the

package.json

to include

sst-env

Haha all good, easy to miss little things like that!
