Describe the bug

My production env cognito resource was created with 4 required attributes. I merged in changes from another env that had 1 required attribute and everything got messed up. On cognito it still shows 4 attributes required, on cloudFormation template it shows 4 "requiredAttributes" but only 1 attribute mentioned in the Schema field. When I try to push with the 4 attributes in my cli-inputs.json it fails throwing the following error:

Resource handler returned message: "Invalid AttributeDataType input, consider using the provided AttributeDataType enum.

but when i try to delete those attributes it gives me this error:

Cognito configuration in the cloud has drifted from local configuration. Present changes cannot be pushed until drift is fixed. requiredAttributes requested is ["given_name"], but ["birthdate","email","family_name","given_name"] is required by Cognito configuration. Update /Users/Julien/Documents/Flowly-Backend/amplify/backend/auth/tamadeIntegrationTest/cli-inputs.json to continue.

I got a successful push when I lowered the amplify version to 7.6.8, but now that i'm trying to go back up to 12.4.0, it fails.

Expected behavior

I would expect if I try to push with the correct required attributes that it would allow me

Reproduction steps

merge changes from another env with less required Attributes and push
