# Return Login and Redirect Views by Hardcoding Social Account Provider in django-allauth (When Using AWS Cognito, etc.)

How to Create a Login View in Django Allauth Without Specifying the Social Account Backend in the URL

This can be useful if you're using only one backend like AWS Cognito.

# Login View

To display a login button:

```python
from allauth.socialaccount.providers.amazon_cognito.views import oauth2_login

async def login_view(request):
    return oauth2_login(request)
```

# View to Redirect to the Login URL

To redirect to the managed login URL of Cognito:

### Settings
```python
SOCIALACCOUNT_LOGIN_ON_GET = True
```

```python
from allauth.socialaccount.providers.amazon_cognito.views import oauth2_login

async def login_view(request):
    return oauth2_login(request)
```

Alternatively:

```python
from allauth.socialaccount.providers.amazon_cognito.views import oauth2_login, AmazonCognitoOAuth2Adapter

def login_redirect_view(request):
    adapter = AmazonCognitoOAuth2Adapter(request)
    provider = adapter.get_provider()
    return provider.redirect_from_request(request)
```

# Other Recommended Settings for Allauth

### Settings

```python
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/'
LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = 'https://<your-cognito-managed-url>/logout?client_id=<cognito-client-id>>&logout_uri=https%3A%2F%2F<your-webapp>'  # NOQA
ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION = 'none'
SOCIALACCOUNT_ONLY = True
```
