Part of the error text is a \"reason\" message that provides added insight into what went wrong. The reason messages are listed below; click the message to open an article explaining the error in more detail and offering possible solutions.\n\nReason: CORS disabled Reason: CORS request did not succeed Reason: CORS header 'Origin' cannot be added Reason: CORS request external redirect not allowed Reason: CORS request not http Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' does not match 'xyz' Reason: Credential is not supported if the CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' is '\\' Reason: Did not find method in CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' Reason: expected 'true' in CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' Reason: CORS preflight channel did not succeed Reason: invalid token 'xyz' in CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' Reason: invalid token 'xyz' in CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' Reason: missing token 'xyz' in CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' from CORS preflight channel Reason: Multiple CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' not allowed\n\nMost CORS errors can only be resolved on the server, because the server controls whether cross-origin access is allowed. However, there are some things you can do on the client side\n\nAttribution: Adapted from MDN Web Docs under CC-BY-SA-2.5.
