Brad Rhoads commented on COUCHDB-2027:
--------------------------------------

My problem was solved by:

1. adding headers= accept, authorization, content-type, origin into [cors] 
section of local.ini // the docs were not clear to me about this
2. Adding an Authorization header in my AJAX request :

 $.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            contentType: "application/json",
            dataType: "json",
        url: myUrl
        beforeSend: setHeader,
        error: function (error) {
                   console.log(error);
        },
        success: function (remoteAppInfo) {
          ...
        }
    });

    function setHeader(xhr) {
                console.log("setHeader");
                xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization',"Basic " + 
btoa("estanteuser:Dnbatfydnkwadm6f"));
    }


> CORS should not require authentication on preflight OPTIONS request
