25.1 About the CORS Properties in the Satellite Server JSON File
The CORS properties in the Satellite Server wcs_properties.json
file correlate to the CORS properties in the WebCenter Sites wcs_properties.json
file.
The properties that configure the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) mechanism for Satellite Server are categorized under the CORS category. These properties allow resources to be requested from domains outside of the WebCenter Sites domain.
When a request from a domain outside of WebCenter Sites is made for a WebCenter Sites resource, the browser "preflights" the request by soliciting supported domain methods from WebCenter Sites with an HTTP OPTIONS
request header. Upon approval from WebCenter Sites, CORS sends the request with the HTTP
request method. WebCenter Sites can also notify clients whether "credentials" (including Cookies and HTTP Authentication data) should be sent with requests.
