AWS Cognito User Pool will send verification code by email or sms and the user enters the code to get verified with the User Pool. User enters username and password and logs in with Cognito User Pool in which case a token will be provided by Cognito upon successful login.

  function getCurrentLoggedInSession(){

            $("#loader").show();
            userPool = new AmazonCognitoIdentity.CognitoUserPool(poolData);
            cognitoUser = userPool.getCurrentUser();

            if(cognitoUser != null){
                cognitoUser.getSession(function(err, session) {
                    if (err) {
                        logMessage(err.message);
                    }else{
                        logMessage('Session found! Logged in.');
                        switchToLoggedInView();
                        idToken = session.getIdToken().getJwtToken();
                        getCognitoIdentityCredentials();
                    }
                    $("#loader").hide();
                });
            }else{
                logMessage('Session expired. Please log in again.');
                $("#loader").hide();
            }

        }

        /*
        This is a logging method that will be used throught the application
        */
        function logMessage(message){
            $('#log').append(message + '</br>');
        }
    </script>
