title: Is LinkedIn OpenID Connect provider? How can it be used with AWS Cognito Federated Identity?
body: <p>The AWS Cognito documentation is very sketchy when it comes to explaining OpenID Connect providers or how to implement auth using say LinkedIn.
  The nearest example is of SalesForce </p>

  <p>These steps did not work for LinkedIn using it Javascript SDK.
  Not able to retrieve id_token similar to FB or Google JS SDK.
  AWS needs id_token to return the AWS credentials.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone has successfully implemented Linked with AWS Cognito?</p>
