I'm using RESTful API for my Appery project everything works fine through the preview. However, when I export it and try running it on localhost through ISS express, I am not able to see the data, which is held in collapsible boxes. But creating items updates the data on the API so I am very confused. I also tried the .apk version and that worked fine.
Hello! Looks like there is some problem with allow-cross-origin. Please check console (Network tab).
Hi, thanks for the reply. That does seem to be the problem. Do you have any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks.
Hi Alvaro,
What do you see in browser console?
Here's what I see: "XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://www.ndwebserver.com/PHPAPI/sim.... Origin http://localhost:8080 is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. "
I tried searching on Google but I can't seem to make any of the solutions work.
Thank your for the link. I'm just confused about whether the fix should be done in the API, browser, Appery, or server level. I apologize, I don't have much experience on this topic.
Hello! On server add in response the following headers:
Access-Control-Allow-Methods - lists all the allowed methods
Access-Control-Allow-Origin - site address
So that headers will look like this for example
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://localhost:8080
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST, GET, OPTIONS
or like this
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST, GET, OPTIONS
or (assuming you're just testing) start chrome with the --disable-web-security flag
