I want to get data from a WebAPI with jquery
$("#btnSend").click(function () { $("#sending").show(); $.ajax({ type: 'GET', url: '/Report/SendEmail?quote=18', crossDomain: true, success: function (msg) { if (msg == 'True') { alert('Email sent to the client'); } $("#sending").hide(); }, error: function (request, status, error) { $("#sending").hide(); } }); });
and it produce
‘No Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource error.
The solution is to add in the result of the WebAPI the following code:
Response.Headers.Add("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET, POST"); Response.Headers.Add("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "accept, authority"); Response.Headers.Add("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials", "true");
Happy coding!
