[Question] How to resolve CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing in Unity WebGL build
alexandlazaris opened this issue · 5 comments
Hi there, I'm using this api for a Unity3D experiment and am having difficulty with this error:
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://dog-api.kinduff.com/api/facts. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing).
Now it's something that occurs only when building a WebGL build in Unity, as if I build a standalone Mac app the error does not occur.
After many tabs and reading through, the consensus seems is for server to hold a response header containing:
Access-Control-Allow-Origin : http://www.my-domain.com. Now this is problematic as I am using the live server you are hosting and not my own.
Is suggestions to resolve this with my current setup?
Hello @alexandlazaris this happens when trying to do a request from the browser instead from a server. I will push a fix to allow CORS for this API.
Excellent @kinduff , thanks for that!
@kinduff Greetings! We're still having the CORS issue. Have you been able to resolve it?
The issue doesn't seem to be fixed yet. Expecting access-control-allow-origin: * in header of api response.
Until I release the new version of the API, I will not provide a fix for this.
Consider using a middleware like CORS Anywhere or any other kind of proxy if you need or want to fetch the information from a browser. The recommended usage is to do it in a server, or even a lambda function.
