Cloudflare Pages
Cloudflare Pages is a JAMstack platform for frontend developers to collaborate and deploy websites. When building static sites or single-page applications on Cloudflare Pages, you might encounter CORS errors when trying to access external APIs directly from your frontend code.
This happens because many APIs are designed to only accept requests from server environments, not directly from browser-based applications. Corsfix solves this problem by providing a secure proxy service that enables your Cloudflare Pages application to communicate with any API without CORS restrictions.
Getting Started
Section titled “Getting Started”1. Deploy Your Project to Cloudflare Pages
Section titled “1. Deploy Your Project to Cloudflare Pages”Begin by deploying your application to Cloudflare Pages through their standard deployment workflow. Once your deployment is complete, you can find your live application URL in the Cloudflare Pages dashboard.
Find your live application URL in the Cloudflare Pages project dashboard
Make note of this URL as you’ll need it to configure Corsfix in the next step.
2. Configure Your Application in Corsfix
Section titled “2. Configure Your Application in Corsfix”Head over to the Corsfix application dashboard and add your Cloudflare Pages deployment URL as an allowed origin for API requests.
Add your Cloudflare Pages application URL to the Corsfix dashboard
After adding your domain to the allowed origins, your API requests through Corsfix will function properly in your deployed application.
3. Verify Your API Integration
Section titled “3. Verify Your API Integration”Once the configuration is complete, open your live Cloudflare Pages application and test your API functionality. Your requests should now flow through the Corsfix proxy without any CORS-related issues.
API requests now work seamlessly without CORS errors
Check your browser’s developer console to confirm that CORS errors are eliminated and your API calls are executing successfully.
Custom Domains
Section titled “Custom Domains”If you’ve configured a custom domain for your Cloudflare Pages site, ensure you add your custom domain (e.g., https://yourdomain.com) to the allowed origins in the Corsfix dashboard rather than using the default Cloudflare Pages URL.
