AWS Cognito: Methods to Get a List of users?

Question

I'm developing a web application using Angular 4 (with TypeScript language) front-end side, and using AWS services back-end size. This application can be only accessed by a group of users (each has its own mail and password). This group of users is defined in AWS Cognito - User Pool. How can I have the entire list of these users with their properties to see her in the frontend? And how do I change their properties only frontend side?

I saw the JavaScript methods for AWS Cognito (https://github.com/aws/amazon-cognito-identity-js), but I didn't find anything for what I want to do.

I would like to use some method to show the full list of users with their properties (as seen in the AWS mangement console of Cognito) and that always, thanks to another method, my application it's able to edit some information as a "group" of a user.

Can anyone tell me if this is possible?

Late response but for those who will probably need it :

1. Create a new IAM policy, with the Cognito Listusers allowed

2. the code in JS

   const cognitoidentityserviceprovider = new AWS.CognitoIdentityServiceProvider({
        apiVersion: '2016-04-18',
        region: "eu-central-1",
        credentials: Auth.essentialCredentials(credentials)
      });
      var params = {
        UserPoolId: environment.amplify.Auth.userPoolId, /* required */
        AttributesToGet: [
          "email",
        ],
        Limit: 0
      };
      cognitoidentityserviceprovider.listUsers(params, function (err, data) {
        if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
        else console.log(data);           // successful response
      });
    });
