I get the following message in the Chrome dev tools console when submitting a contact form (making a POST request) on the /about.html section my portfolio web site:
Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://123abc.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prod/contact' from origin 'https://example.net' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: The 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header has a value 'https://example.net/' that is not equal to the supplied origin.
I don't know how to troubleshoot this properly, any help is appreciated.Essentially, this is happening (
CodePudding user response:
The problem was that the response in the lambda function had "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" set to "*".
This should have been set to the exact origin (no trailing slash), so if the origin is 'https://example.net', then the response in the lamda function should have "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" set to 'https://example.net' as shown below:
var response = {
"statusCode": 200,
"headers": {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "https://example.net"
},
"isBase64Encoded": false,
"body": "{ \"result\": \"Success\"\n}"
}```
