TikTok Auth with AWS Cognito & Amplify Gen 2 | TikTok Auth Kit — AWS Cognito + Amplify + Lambda

Over the years, working on countless freelance projects, I’ve seen one problem pop up again and again: TikTok login integration.

While clients were eager to let users sign in with TikTok, the platform kept turning into a nightmare—from poor documentation to limited support, and zero control over email, phone, or even password-based login.

The Pain Points...

TikTok gives no user email or phone – just a limited token that’s barely usable.

No password auth support, meaning no custom login experience.

And if you're thinking of OpenID Connect or OAuth standards—TikTok just doesn't play well with that world.

🧠 The Problem (Before State)

"I need to add TikTok auth to my app, but I don't know where to start."

"I’m digging through vague documentation from AWS, Amplify, and TikTok, trying to piece together a working solution."

"I’m stuck connecting TikTok OAuth to Cognito correctly."

" I'm worried about getting the Cognito User Pool and Identity Pool settings wrong, leading to security vulnerabilities or a broken user experience."

"I’m not sure what goes where — User Pool? Identity Pool? Environment variables?"

🚀 The Solution (After State)

With this kit, you’ll go from “Where do I even start?” to “Done and live!” in under an hour.

A complete, working authentication flow in minutes, not days.

A step-by-step guide that walks you through every single configuration, with screenshots for every key click.

A copy-and-paste codebase that just works, saving you hours of debugging and frustration.

🔥 Why This Kit Is Better Than DIY

I tried doing it myself and struggled — I know the pain.

That’s why I built this kit to save you from:

Hours of digging through AWS and TikTok docs

Silent errors in Cognito config that are hard to debug

OAuth flows that break for no obvious reason

TikTok tokens getting rejected or failing to refresh

Confusing scopes, redirect URIs, and token exchange steps

I’ve covered everything so you don’t have to.

🎯 What You’ll Achieve

TikTok OAuth 2.0 flow fully working

User created or updated in Cognito

Admin-auth tokens returned (access, refresh, ID)

Frontend-ready auth flow to drop into your app
