It’s every developer’s frustration once in a while to see that big red Access to fetched has been blocked by CORS policy error in your console! 😁 Although there are some ways to quickly get rid of this error, let’s not take anything for granted toda...

Very nice blog Sumanth S, Loved the way you explained it in simple manner and using some images. Thanks.

Great Article...Loved the explanation...👍👍

I faced one issue related to cors some days back. When hitting an api with axios, I was getting <No Access-Control-Allow-Origin> header present on the server but I was able to make a successful call when hitting it with anchor tag. Any idea why??

Update: Access-Control-Allow-Origin is a response header - so in order to enable CORS - you need to add this header to the response from your server.

headers: {"Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*"}

kindly add the above line, check it once

Sumanth S Yes I know tthe point that this header is required to enable CORS. But, It is a third party api and they have not added this header I guess. But how am I able to access it with anchor tag then??
