**Description**  
I’m creating a app where the user uses internal gateway to get token access and in the front-end I want to fetch the user data, but i’m getting an error

Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me)’ from origin …

const user = await axios.get(‘[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me)’, {  
headers: {  
Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,  
},  
});

what I’m doing wrong here?

Hey @youry.stancatte,

It sounds like you are making request to our API from the frontend (client side). You need to make the API requests from the backend (server side) or you will receive a CORS error.

Thanks,  
Tommy
