How to allow CORS in react.js?

I'm using Reactjs and using API through AJAX in javascript. How can we resolve this issue? Previously I used CORS tools, but now I need to enable CORS.

there are 6 ways to do this in React,

number 1 and 2 and 3 are the best:

1-config CORS in the Server-Side

2-set headers manually like this:

resonse_object.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
resonse_object.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");

3-config NGINX for proxy_pass which is explained here.

4-bypass the Cross-Origin-Policy with chrom extension(only for development and not recommended !)

5-bypass the cross-origin-policy with URL bellow(only for development)

"https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/{type_your_url_here}"

6-use proxy in your package.json file:(only for development)

if this is your API: http://45.456.200.5:7000/api/profile/

add this part in your package.json file: "proxy": "http://45.456.200.5:7000/",

and then make your request with the next parts of the api:

React.useEffect(() => {
    axios
        .get('api/profile/')
        .then(function (response) {
            console.log(response);
        })
        .catch(function (error) {
            console.log(error);
        });
});

It is better to add CORS enabling code on Server Side. To enable CORS in NodeJS and ExpressJs based application following code should be included-

var app = express();

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
  res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
  res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
  next();
});

Possible repeated question from How to overcome the CORS issue in ReactJS

CORS works by adding new HTTP headers that allow servers to describe the set of origins that are permitted to read that information using a web browser. This must be configured in the server to allow cross domain.

You can temporary solve this issue by a chrome plugin called CORS.
