"SignUp is not permitted for this user pool", How to modify cognito?

[dariushazimi]

When I try the sign-up button, it says "SignUp is not permitted for this user pool".
I have looked at Cognito but I can't find where I need to make a change to allow user sign up, or what to change on the template.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks

I believe the setting should be changed to " AllowAdminCreateUserOnly: false".
Is that the right solution?

Apologies for the delayed response. Yes, you are correct. If you want to make the change after the solution has been deployed, follow these steps:

1. Go to Cognito console
2. Select Manage User Pools
3. Chose the user pool created by the solution
4. Under General settings change User sign ups allowed? to Allow users to sign themselves up
5. Save the setting and this should allow your users to sign up.

Please resolve the issue.
