Is LinkedIn OpenID Connect provider? How can it be used with AWS Cognito Federated Identity?

Question

The AWS Cognito documentation is very sketchy when it comes to explaining OpenID Connect providers or how to implement auth using LinkedIn.

I'm not able to retrieve id_token similar to FB or Google JS SDK. AWS needs id_token to return the AWS credentials.

Anyone has successfully implemented Linked with AWS Cognito?

Answer 1

No, it seems that LinkedIn does not offer full OpenID Connect. Also, a possible solution would be to use Cognito with Auth0 which can log you in via LinkedIn.
