Configure CORS

CORS (Cross-origin resource sharing) is a browser mechanism that enables restricted access across domain boundaries that would otherwise be prohibited by default browser restrictions. The CORS header enables Labelbox to send a pre-flight request to your cloud storage and enables your cloud storage to explicitly allow requests from Labelbox. If the Labelbox domains are included in the CORS header, Labelbox will be able to request resources from your cloud storage.

When configuring CORS for your cloud storage bucket, you will need to include both of these Labelbox origins: https://app.labelbox.com and https://editor.labelbox.com.
