CORS issue with AWS API Gateway

I am send post request from my web-page to AWS API Gateway which is invoking a lambda function. CORS is enabled in the API Gateway.

Error:

Failed to load api_gatewau_url: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'url' is therefore not allowed access.

The resource is having two methods:

  1. OPTIONS (integration MOCK)
  2. POST (integration Lambda)

How to solve CORS issue?

Below is the code for sending post request.

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    crossDomain: true,
    url: "api_gateway_url",
    data: JSON.stringify({
        "param1": value1,
        "param2": value2
    }),

I have also tried to add headers with allow origin true etc but no luck.
Strangest thing, same configuration and request I am trying with different api gateway then it is working fine without any errors.

If you're using lambda proxy you have to add the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header in your lambda

"Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*"

If not using lambda proxy you can go to API Gateway click on the actions drop down and select enable CORS to enable it.

If you are using proxy integration in API Gateway, then enabling CORS from API Gateway doesn't work. You have to set the Header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' from your Lambda code itself.

Its mentioned in the doc.

Python code sample:

    response = {
        'statusCode': 200,
        'headers': {
            'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'
        },
        'body': json.dumps({'message': 'CORS enabled')
    }
    return response

Based on your type of integration you need to return the COR's headers.

More detail can be found at,

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS#The_HTTP_response_headers

If you are using ANY integration, you can return the headers from your Lambda or other sources where you are integrating with.

For Lambda,

module.exports.hello = function(event, context, callback) {

    const response = {
      statusCode: 200,
      headers: {
        "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" : "https://domain:port", // Required for CORS support to work
        "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials" : true // Required for cookies, authorization headers with HTTPS
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ "message": "Hello World!" })
    };

    callback(null, response);
};

If you are using S3,

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/add-cors-configuration.html

API Gateway CORS Mapping:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/how-to-cors.html

Hope it helps.
