How do I retrieve data from a wix website via a widget embedded in another website?

@chidiejike If it worked and suddenly stopped, I doubt I’ll be able tell what the problem is. It may need some deeper investigation that only Wix Team can do. Anyway, what do you get? Any error? Anything strange in the browser dev tools > network tab?

@jonatandor35 Same CORS problem “Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘ https://mysite.com/_functions/myFunction/countries ’ from origin ‘null’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.”

@chidiejike if you still have the “Access-Control-Allow-Origin”:""* then I don’t know. Maybe something is wrong with your function (you didn’t post the function for the function with the countries.

@jonatandor35 It stopped all of a sudden not because I added any new code to the existing one. The country is a request parameter that also Allowed access in the code If (request.path[0]===“countries”){ let options = { “headers”:{ “Content-Type”:“application/json”, “Access-Control-Allow-Origin…

@jonatandor35 I think it is a bug in wix, maybe you can do quick test.

@jonatandor35 What exactly is wrong with Wix?? Code that worked before stopped working because of CORS error. I decided to disable the browser security now it is given me 404 error, what really is going on with wix?

@chidiejike I really can’t say based on this description. Maybe try contacting Wix support.

@jonatandor35 Wix Support doesn’t handle code related

@chidiejike I can’t tell. Maybe it’s in another part of your code, maybe it’s a bug on wix side. I don’t have enough info here.
