How to logout from all providers in AWS Cognito?

I use AWS Cognito authentication in my web application. Users can authenticate using one of the three identity providers: cognito user pool (by username and password), facebook and google. Here is how I get credentials:

AWS.config.credentials = new AWS.CognitoIdentityCredentials({
    IdentityPoolId: identityPoolId,
    Logins: logins
});
AWS.config.credentials.get(err => {
    console.log("Amazon Cognito Identity", 
    AWS.config.credentials.identityId);
});

logins - Object, that can contain tokens from cognito, facebook and google.

What should web application does if user click logout button? I could do userPool.getCurrentUser().signOut() if current user is exists (current user is exists only in cognito username, password authentication) But what should I do if somebody signs in using facebook or google?

The JS SDK has a method called clearCachedId that should wipe the local state and help with this.

that is enough (the sign out), the session token will expire and that user won't be able to login again without using a new token. your cognito pool will still have the provider user.. but that is fine, if you remove it and the user signs in again, it will be a different user, so you need to keep the record in the cognito database
