Use Case Guide

Debug CORS Errors

Identify and fix CORS issues in seconds. Gain full visibility into preflight requests and response headers that block your app.

The Problem

CORS errors are notoriously opaque, often showing up as generic 'Network Error' in the console without explaining which header is missing.

The DevConsole Solution

DevConsole highlights failed preflight (OPTIONS) requests and explicitly shows the mismatch between requested and allowed headers.

Step-by-Step Implementation

Identify the Request

Requests blocked by CORS are highlighted in red in the DevConsole Network Log.

Inspect Headers

Check the 'Preflight' tab to see exactly what the server returned vs what the browser expected.

Test Fixes

Use the request replayer to try different headers and see what would satisfy your server's CORS policy.

Related Questions

Why does it work in DevConsole but fail in the app?

This is often due to the browser's strict CORS enforcement. DevConsole helps you see the raw headers to find the discrepancy.

Can DevConsole bypass CORS?

No, it's a debugger for your app's actual network traffic. It helps you see the 'why' so you can fix the 'what' on your server.
