# CORS Configuration

**Introduction to CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing)**

CORS, or Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, is a fundamental web security mechanism, it defines the rules for when and how a web page hosted on one domain can make requests to access resources, such as data or services, on another domain. CORS is a crucial aspect of web security, as it helps prevent malicious websites from making unauthorized requests to sensitive data.

**Understanding Allowed CORS hosts**

In Limio the Allowed CORS hosts list serves as a whitelist, permitting specific domains to make cross-origin requests to the Limio API and access its resources.

The list allows "headless" access to APIs. This means that services or scripts running on servers or in environments without a traditional web browser (i.e., headless) can still make secure requests to the Limio API.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.limio.com/product/settings/security/cors-configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
