Hi Agustina,

If you are sure it's not a CORS policy error, then I'd recommend checking 
the backend logs.  That "500 (Internal Server Error)" might also be logged 
in dspace.log or tomcat logs. If so, there may be more information there to 
help out.   If it's reproducible semi-easily, you could also turn on "Debug 
mode for the REST API" per our troubleshooting 
guide: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove)
  
 (I wouldn't recommend leaving that on for a long time though, as allows 
full error stacktraces to be seen in every REST API response, which is 
really useful to debug issues...but also can be useful to hackers trying to 
find vulnerabilities in your system.)
