    I am trying to connect AWS cognito with IBM API Connect as third party Oauth provider, as we need  three urls to add an OAuth in API Connect i.e Authorization url, Token and introspect url but however introspect url is not provided by aws cognito.
    If anyone has some steps to do so kindly share it.
    Even if there is any other method or documentation regarding the connection of APIC with cognito please provide it.

    Hi,

    possible workaround when the introspect url of the IDP is not compliant with RFC 7662 or not existing is to setup a local proxy api (and point to this one in your APIC setup) which e.g. proxies to the /userinfo endpoint and transforms that response to a compliant RFC 7662 response.
