I have created one API service using nodejs and it is working fine when I accessing through the browser. But when I'm try to call it from web application (MEAN app), getting the "Failed to load http://localhost:2020/api/posts: Request header field If-Modified-Since is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response" issue.
Following code is added in index.js of the API service.
// Add headers
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
// Website you wish to allow to connect
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*');
// Request methods you wish to allow
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE');
// Request headers you wish to allow
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'X-Requested-With,content-type');
// Set to true if you need the website to include cookies in the requests sent
// to the API (e.g. in case you use sessions)
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
// Pass to next layer of middleware
next();
});
and added following lines in controller of the web app,
app.config(["$routeProvider", "$httpProvider", function ($routeProvider, $httpProvider) {
$httpProvider.defaults.headers.common['Access-Control-Allow-Headers'] = '*';
}
]);
But no luck for added the above lines. How to resolve this issue ?
Thanks.
