Angular cross origin issue in API call Backend PHP? - php

Question

Facing CORS in angular, when i was trying to make a API call between my localhost to another domain.I am getting 404 issue .
1.Front End : Angualr 7
Front end request part:
const httpOptions = {
headers: new HttpHeaders({
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials': 'true',
'Access-Control-Allow-Methods':'POST',
'Access-Control-Allow-Headers': 'Content-Type'
})
}
login(username: string, password: string) {
return this.http.post<any>('http://remote/djaxtesting/enter_uiupgrade/index.php/api/v1/user/validate',
{acc_type: "ADMIN", uemail: "djax_admin#dreamajax.com", upw: "123456"},httpOptions)
.pipe(map(user => {}))
}
Back end coding :
<?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
header ("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");
header ("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true");
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type');
header('Content-Type: application/json');
public function validate_post()
{
$role = array('ADVERTISER','TRAFFICKER','ADMIN','MANAGER');
if($this->post('acc_type') !='' and in_array($this->post('acc_type'),$role))
{
switch(strtoupper($this->post('acc_type')))
{
case "ADMIN":
$adminObj = $this->do_networks->validate_user($this->post('uemail'),$this->post('upw'),$this->post('acc_type'));
//$this->response($adminObj, 200);
}
}
}

We using php for api. Helping handing needs to solve this issue ?

The problem with the option method. Option request should be a 200 returning an empty response. Then the browser will send the real POST request.
for that replace with the headers in your PHP File in the constructor. It will work.
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-API-KEY, Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept, Access-Control-Request-Method, Authorization");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE");
$method = $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'];
if ($method == "OPTIONS") {
die();
}
