  - `cognito_config`**Type**: `STRUCT`**Provider name**: `cognitoConfig`**Description**: Describes an Amazon Cognito user pool configuration.
    - `app_id_client_regex`**Type**: `STRING`**Provider name**: `appIdClientRegex`**Description**: A regular expression for validating the incoming Amazon Cognito user pool app client ID. If this value isn't set, no filtering is applied.
    - `aws_region`**Type**: `STRING`**Provider name**: `awsRegion`**Description**: The Amazon Web Services Region in which the user pool was created.

  - `lambda_authorizer_config`**Type**: `STRUCT`**Provider name**: `lambdaAuthorizerConfig`
    - `authorizer_result_ttl_in_seconds`**Type**: `INT32`**Provider name**: `authorizerResultTtlInSeconds`**Description**: The number of seconds a response should be cached for. The default is 0 seconds, which disables caching. If you don't specify a value for `authorizerResultTtlInSeconds`, the default value is used. The maximum value is one hour (3600 seconds). The Lambda function can override this by returning a `ttlOverride` key in its response.
    - `authorizer_uri`**Type**: `STRING`**Provider name**: `authorizerUri`**Description**: The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Lambda function to be called for authorization. This can be a standard Lambda ARN, a version ARN (`…/v3`), or an alias ARN. Note: This Lambda function must have the following resource-based policy assigned to it. When configuring Lambda authorizers in the console, this is done for you. To use the Command Line Interface (CLI), run the following: `aws lambda add-permission –function-name "arn:aws:lambda:us-east-2:111122223333:function:my-function" –statement-id "appsync" –principal appsync.amazonaws.com –action lambda:InvokeFunction`
