Description
### How did you install the Amplify CLI?
npm
### If applicable, what version of Node.js are you using?
v16.20.2
### Amplify CLI Version
12.12.6
### What operating system are you using?
macOS
### Did you make any manual changes to the cloud resources managed by Amplify? Please describe the changes made.
N/A
### Describe the bug
When setting OAuth values in `amplify/backend/auth//override.ts`, for example:
```
...
resources.userPoolClient.allowedOAuthFlows = ["code"];
resources.userPoolClient.allowedOAuthScopes = ["openid", "email", "profile"];
...
```
These values are not added to the `aws-exports.js` file.
If the values are added to `cli-inputs.json`, for example:
```
"oAuthMetadata": "{\"AllowedOAuthFlows\":[\"code\"],\"AllowedOAuthScopes\":[\"email\",\"openid\",\"profile\"],
```
The values do appear in `aws-exports.js`:
```
"oauth": {
...
"scope": [
"email",
"openid",
"profile"
],
"responseType": "code"
...
},
```
My understanding is these should be equivalent and `override.ts` is the more modern way of adding these settings.
### Expected behavior
aws-exports.js contains OAuth values when set from `override.ts` file
### Reproduction steps
1. Use `amplify/backend/auth//override.ts` to add OAuth properties
a. e.g.
```
resources.userPoolClient.allowedOAuthFlows = ["code"];
resources.userPoolClient.allowedOAuthScopes = ["openid", "email", "profile"];
```
2. Perform an `amplify push`
3. Notice `aws-exports.js` does not update
### Project Identifier
_No response_
### Log output
_No response_
### Additional information
I may be misunderstanding this, and if using `override.ts`, there's another way of acccessing the values that are set, instead of using `aws-exports.js`, but I'm not sure what this process is if it exists.
Thanks!

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with amplify/backend/auth//override.ts and compare how its OAuth values are handled with the cli-inputs.json path during amplify push. Inspect the generated aws-exports.js and verify whether allowedOAuthFlows and allowedOAuthScopes are carried through. Done means the documented override.ts reproduction produces the expected oauth responseType and scope values.
