The curated Cognito construct (@aws-cdk/aws-cognito) should support using SES for email in addition to the default setting where Cognito sends email.

Use Case

In the AWS Console, there is a prominent warning that having Cognito send emails goes against best practice, and suggests switching to SES.

Warning message shown in the AWS Console
User pool created using @aws-cdk/aws-cognito

Proposed Solution

The cognito.UserPoolProps should support the emailSendingAccount and sourceArn properties from CloudFormation.

Other

Workaround: The workaround is to use CfnUserPool (the “Level 1 AWS CloudFormation-only construct”).

This is a 🚀 Feature Request
