Getting CORS Error when using fetch to get data-CodePudding

I am trying to access the API to get some data however i keep getting this CORS error. I have checked my code for any syntax errors but i can't find any. I have attached a picture of the error and my function which is supposed to get the data.

async function getData(){
  const request = await fetch('https://api.igdb.com/v4/games', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
    'Client-ID': 'jglmao8u28qo1p9wltqne325i7xh3u',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer 4xau27m6liukizor4z2l8mlb7vbpjk',
  }
  })
  const response = await request.json();
  console.log(response);
}

CodePudding user response：

There is a great proxy out there used just for this - bypassing a CORS block. The source code is here: https://github.com/Rob--W/cors-anywhere, and you would use it like this:

https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/https://api.igdb.com/v4/games basically just adding the CORS-Anywhere URL before your actual image URL.

In your situation, it would be

async function getData(){
  const request = await fetch('https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/https://api.igdb.com/v4/games', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
    'Client-ID': 'jglmao8u28qo1p9wltqne325i7xh3u',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer 4xau27m6liukizor4z2l8mlb7vbpjk',
  }
  })
  const response = await request.json();
  console.log(response);
}

If you get rate limited by that website, try https://circumvent-cors.herokuapp.com/, this is one that I have deployed from the GitHub source code, no modifications and I do not think it should rate limit you.

Cheers, and let me know if this works.
