CognitoUser TypeScript definition missing challengeName

[kevinwolfcr]

Describe the bug
The CognitoUser TS definition exported from @aws-amplify/auth is missing challengeName on its interface, so whenever I try to check user.challengeName, I receive an error

Expected behavior
challengeName should be included in type definition for CognitoUser

Error

Property 'challengeName' does not exist on type 'CognitoUser'.

Dependencies:

• @aws-amplify/auth: 1.2.28

Sample code
Sandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/cognitouser-issue-hd7y1 (check src/index.ts file)

@iamkevinwolf I can confirm this is still an ongoing issue as I've only just come across it. Its probably been abit too long for this reply to be of any good to you but for the interim as a quick fix i've resorted to the following:

export type AuthChallengeName =
  | "NEW_PASSWORD_REQUIRED"
  | "SMS_MFA"
  | "SOFTWARE_TOKEN_MFA"
  | "MFA_SETUP";

export type AuthUser =  CognitoUser & {
  challengeName: AuthChallengeName
}

furthermore, challengeParam is also not yet defined.....

Still missing? Re-open?

why is this closed? both packages @aws-amplify/auth and aws-amplify { Auth } are missing the cognito:groups types on IDToken, too. shouldn't AWS have first-class support for typescript?
