Hello is there an easy way to solve a Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)" error? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. ---

i’m also trying to work through a cors issue. what exactly are you trying to do, and what action in particular is triggering the error? ---

I’m simply trying to get a simple form to interface with the API. I’m using JavaScript. I am looking for information on how to configure the server or another method completely to interface with the API that doesn’t have to deal with the CORs issue. ---

The only way I know of to get around the COR issue right now is to use a rely or proxy server to make the final request. So your code refers to a local host on a different port (5000 seems a common choice) and the service running on that port makes the request with the API key for you. I know that you can turn off COR at the server end, but OpenAI will probably not do that. Here is some info on why you get the error > **[Fetch: Cross-Origin Requests](https://javascript.info/fetch-crossorigin)** And here is a potential fix > **[How to Make a Fetch Proxy in Javascript to Avoid CORS Errors with APIs](https://kennethscoggins.medium.com/how-to-make-a-fetch-proxy-in-javascript-to-avoid-cors-errors-with-apis-2b93c4ed0e78)** > > How many times have you gotten all excited about a new API only to discover that when you try to get the data all you seem to end up with… and another example > **[A Simple Cors Proxy for Javascript applications](https://medium.com/nodejsmadeeasy/a-simple-cors-proxy-for-javascript-applications-9b36a8d39c51)** > > Sometimes there are use cases when we have to call third party services (APIs) where cors are not allowed or be enabled only for… ---

In case anybody else comes to this thread on Google to see if OpenAI supports CORS, the answer is that **yes, OpenAI does seem to support CORS now.** Or at least the [https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions](https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions) endpoint does. ---
