Introduction

Securely connect your web applications to Odoo with the API CORS Configuration module. This essential tool simplifies the management of Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS), a critical security feature for modern web development. By allowing you to define and manage your CORS policies directly within Odoo, this module ensures that your API can be safely accessed by authorized web applications from different domains. It is a must-have for any developer building headless Odoo applications, single-page applications (SPAs), or any web-based integration that requires cross-origin API requests.

Key Features

  • Centralized CORS Management: Configure and manage all your CORS policies from a single, user-friendly interface within Odoo.

  • Define Allowed Origins: Specify which domains are allowed to make cross-origin requests to your Odoo API.

  • Control Allowed Methods and Headers: Define the allowed HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, etc.) and headers for cross-origin requests.

  • Preflight Request Handling: The module handles preflight OPTIONS requests automatically, ensuring seamless communication between the browser and your Odoo server.

  • Enhanced Security: Protect your Odoo instance from unauthorized cross-origin requests and potential security vulnerabilities.

  • Easy Integration: Simple to install and configure, with no complex setup required.

Benefits

  • Secure API Integrations: Build secure and reliable integrations with external web applications and services.

  • Enable Modern Web Development: A fundamental requirement for building modern, decoupled web applications with Odoo as the backend.

  • Improved Security Posture: Strengthen the security of your Odoo instance by implementing a robust and well-defined CORS policy.

  • Simplified Development: Streamline the development process by providing a simple and effective way to manage CORS.

  • Greater Flexibility: Gain the flexibility to securely connect your Odoo API with a wide range of web applications and services.
