无法使用fetch api发送DELETE请求

Question

When I send a delete request to a certain endpoint, for example with httpie from terminal like

http delete http://localhost:8181/admin/applications/uspecs

I get a valid behavior, as in { success: true } as response body. But when I do

fetch (
  'http://localhost:8181/admin/applications/uspecs',
  { method: 'DELETE' }
)
.then(res => doSomethingWithResponse())
.catch(err => console.error(err))

In javascript code, then I get a

Fetch API cannot load http://localhost:8181/admin/applications/uspecs.
Method DELETE is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Methods in preflight response.

error on the console. What am I missing? I am getting a valid methods list on options request.

You need to send the Access-Control-Allow-Methods header containing the allowed methods. Currently your header is named methods .
