CORS Origin Errors
How to diagnose and resolve CORS errors when distributing Nomad Media content.
CORS Origin Errors
CORS errors typically occur when content is being served from a new domain that has not yet been added to the CORS allowlist. When this happens, contact the Nomad Media support team at [email protected] with the following information:
-
What are the CORS origins? The origin is the domain of the site that is experiencing the issue. You can find it in:
- The Origin header of the failing HTTP request
- The error message in the browser's JavaScript console
-
What does this origin need access to?
- Video, image, or audio content? (Y/N)
- API access? (Y/N)
- Bitmovin player? (Y/N)
-
A screenshot of the CORS error or license error from the browser's JavaScript console.
-
A public-facing URL where Nomad Media can reproduce the error (if available).
-
Does the content URL open correctly when pasted directly into a new browser tab?
-
If video: does the link open in a standard player (for playback) or download with a normal href link (for download)?
-
Are you making an API call to retrieve or use the video? If so, which API?
Diagnostics
- Verify that your player configuration has crossorigin properly set. See the HTML video crossorigin attribute reference for details.
