    Hey Ratnesh,

    We implemented the change, and it looks to be working now. I get an alert that the response is received and an object is outputted to the screen.

Unfortunately I can't access the partner discussion topic you linked :(

Enabling troubleshooting mode now :)
What does your REST API call return?
What call are you issuing and what return do you expect?

Hi,

 I have coiped the 6 points that were put in the partner discussion. On this , I had a reply to raise the Support Ticket to enable the cross domain access.

 

 

  1. One of the challenges is the widget would be on their own website(other domain for example  - login.mydomain.com)
  2. Since this poses a cross domain limitation(Same Origin policy of browser) leading to I can not use JavaScript and Ajax to request data from lithium domain.
  3. During my discussion on the lithosphere developer forum, I could come across a point that Lithium does allow the cross domain requests for specific domains.
  4. So was curious to know if I provide the customer's domain and sub domain details, would you be able allow the requests from that domain ?
  5. Also was curiuos know how that would be done and how can I do a small POC(proof of concept) to let the customer know that this approach is going to work like it would be a CORS configuration etc ...
  6. Appreciate if you can share the details on it.

 

Now,

To answer your quesries,

 To test the access, I have just written an ajax call (GET) using REST API  to fetch the labels of the board and diaplying them on success. Please see the image below, the errorI receive

 

 

 

 

hope this clarifies my problem.... Please let me know if you need other details

 

 

Thanks,

Ratnesh

    This is not related, but I would recommend using the following to get a JSON response (instead of ?xslt=json.xsl):

     

    ?restapi.response_format=json

        Hey ratnesh,

         

        Can you tell me more about your use case? How are you making this call, are you trying to make it via a javascript call from a different domain? Do you have the ability to make the request from the server rather than the javascript? (Possibly using HttpClient in java)

         

        Did you try raising a support ticket, we do have a CrossOrigin configuration where we can add specific domains to a list from which cross origin requests will be allowed. Other than this, I don't think there is any workaround to make a request across domains.

         

        Hope this works for you,
