restbridgeclient doesn't do 'GET'

rca:
I am working with example restbridgeclient (pasjs demo) and restserver (Lazarus demo) from sqldbrest.

When using jsonclient (Lazarus demo) it works OK and the server shows:

--- Code: Bash [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---[Resource] (User: ?) Resource: metadata; Operation: GET[Connection] (User: ?) Using connection to Host: localhost; Database: expensetracker[Authentication] (User: me) Authenticated user: me[Result] (User: me) Resource: metadata; Operation: GET; Status: 200; Text: OK
However, when using restbridgeclient example (pasjs demo), it doesn't work and the server shows:

--- Code: Bash [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---[Result] (User: ?) Resource: metadata; Operation: OPTIONS; Status: 403; Text: FORBIDDEN
The difference is in the Operation, it should be 'GET', but it sends 'OPTIONS'.

In the unit sqldbrestdataset, there is the "constructor TServiceRequest.Create", if I comment the following line of code
--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---FXHR.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Basic '+window.btoa(aUserName+':'+aPassword));it sends the 'GET' method, but obviously it would not be authenticated and still does not work.

Please can you help me solve it?

Thank you

After finding and reading some information:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63752007/axios-request-method-changes-to-options-instead-of-get
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21783079/ajax-in-chrome-sending-options-instead-of-get-post-put-delete
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29954037/why-is-an-options-request-sent-and-can-i-disable-it

In short, it not only happens with the 'GET' method, it will also happen with 'POST', 'PUT' or 'DELETE'.

"OPTIONS request is part of the so-called preflight request which is needed to figure out the CORS headers to know what needs/is allowed to be sent to the server with the actual request."

More details about "Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)"
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS
"CORS preflight"
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Preflight_request

So the solution is on the server side (restserver Lazarus demo), within Dispatcher options, enable "rdoHandleCORS" (Handle CORS requests) and that's it!

Enjoy!
