Amplify-cli: Email added as required in userpool even when not selected in amplify add auth prompt

Created on 23 Oct 2020  ·  7Comments  ·  Source: aws-amplify/amplify-cli

Hi, email shows as required even though I didn't select it during the amplify add auth flow. More context: no MFA/no required attributes.

Got it. Yes, I was able to reproduce the issue. The following block always exists in the CloudFormation template by default which shouldn't be present if you unselect email in the sign-up attributes question. I'll take that back to me team. cc @edwardfoyle 

     Schema: 
        -
          Name: email
          Required: true
          Mutable: true

@kennandavison Which flow did you go through for amplify add auth - did you go with the default configurations from the CLI?

What was your selection for this response? The email attribute in Cognito was set based on your response for this question in the manual configuration flow.

What attributes are required for signing up? (Press to select, to toggle all, to invert selection)
❯◯ Address (This attribute is not supported by Facebook, Google, Login With Amazon.)
◯ Birthdate (This attribute is not supported by Login With Amazon.)
◉ Email
◯ Family Name (This attribute is not supported by Login With Amazon.)
◯ Middle Name (This attribute is not supported by Google, Login With Amazon.)
◯ Gender (This attribute is not supported by Login With Amazon.)
◯ Locale (This attribute is not supported by Facebook, Google.)
