About the CORS Tester

Enter an endpoint and origin to run a bounded preflight-style check and inspect CORS headers. The report helps explain whether a browser is likely to allow the request.

Common uses

  • Check Access-Control-Allow-Origin.
  • Debug API preflight failures.
  • Review allowed methods and headers.

Tips for Using CORS Tester

CORS is a browser access-control mechanism, not authentication. Avoid using permissive wildcard rules for sensitive endpoints.
