CORS-Cross Origin Resource Sharing in Jaspersoft

Introduction:

CORS is a mechanism that allows restricted resource on a web page to be requested from another domain outside the domain from which the first resource was served.

Enable CORS in jasper:

1. Add the CORS properties in web.xml file in Jasper Server

	...\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF

Reference Link: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/filter.html#CORS_Filter

2. Add Remote Domain Header in cors.allowed.headers in cors filter properties
3. Add withCredentials property and Remote Domain property in Ajax call

	
To pass credentials to cross-domain
		Reference: http://api.jquery.com/jquery.ajax/
				xhrFields: {
					withCredentials: true
				}
				
	To allow CSRF protection
Reference:https://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-security-guide/v630/configuring-csrf-protection
				headers: {
					"X-Remote-Domain": "1"
				}
