I've completed the authentication flow for Users using both UserPool and Federated identities of amazon cognito. I can successfully login using my facebook credentials but i'm not able to get the users public profile information.

I have tried to get the user details by calling the function

// Implement callback handler for getting details
    final GetDetailsHandler getDetailsHandler = new GetDetailsHandler() {
        @Override
        public void onSuccess(CognitoUserDetails cognitoUserDetails) {
            // The user detail are in cognitoUserDetails
        }

        @Override
        public void onFailure(Exception exception) {
            // Fetch user details failed, check exception for the cause
        }
    };

cognitoUser.getDetailsInBackground(getDetailsHandler);

But its throwing an exception 

User is not authenticated

Any help is appreciated.

You mentioned "I can successfully login using my facebook credentials". Did you also login using the Cognito User Pools with username/password? Or did you federate the Facebook user into Cognito User Pool?

Without these two, trying to retrieve user details from Cognito User Pools will fail with this error.
