Enabling Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) allows a server to indicate any origins (domain, scheme, or port) other than its own from which a browser should permit loading resources. For security purposes, the server usually only permits connections from the same origin.

Procedure	Example
