Hello, I want to access the user data (summary.json) located at https://www.chiefdelphi.com/u/ereeen1208/summary.json using Nextjs typescript for a project. (chiefdelphi is a discourse forum for FRC) I’ve tried using multiple methods but each method results in an error or is unsuccessfull: (In all examples, url = “https://www.chiefdelphi.com/u/ereeen1208/summary.json”) Code that returns empty response: const response = await fetch(url, { mode: "no-cors", method: "GET" }) Code that returns cors errors: const response = await fetch(url, { mode: "cors", method: "GET" }) const { data } = await axios.get(url); Error for fetch(): Access to fetch at ‘https://www.chiefdelphi.com/u/ereeen1208/summary.json’ from origin ‘http://localhost:3000’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request’s mode to ‘no-cors’ to fetch the resource with CORS disabled. Error for axios.get(): Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘https://www.chiefdelphi.com/u/unpicasso/summary.json’ from origin ‘http://localhost:3000’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource. What can I do to get the data from this url? Would I need to try a different web scraping method or add more parameters? Thanks.

hi @EReeeN1208 perhaps this might help? [image] CORS issue with javascript frontend Self-hosting I figured it out myself. I was in bad belief, that CORS policy is turned ON by default. I edited app.yml and added DISCOURSE_ENABLE_CORS=true, rebooted app and all works fine.
