Moesif Origin & CORS Changer Firefox

Moesif Origin & CORS Changer

By: Moesif
The most popular and feature rich CORS tool on Chrome (over 100K weekly active users) is rebuilt for Firefox with more features. This plugin allows you to send cross-domain requests. You can also override Request Origin and CORS headers.

Features & Capabilities

Moesif Origin & CORS Changer is the Firefox version of the highly popular Chrome extension used by more than 100,000 developers weekly. This tool allows you to send cross-domain requests by overriding the Request Origin and various CORS headers including Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Methods, Headers, Credentials, and Expose-Headers.

Designed for developer testing during development phases, it provides selective enabling based on white-listed domains to ensure security. Moesif's extension facilitates debugging and API development by safely bypassing built-in browser CORS restrictions temporarily. It is highly recommended to disable the plugin after debugging to avoid potential security risks.

Moesif helps API teams improve user-centric analytics, monitor API behaviors, detect threats, and ship better API products. This extension integrates powerful features aligned with Moesif's API monitoring services for seamless development and testing workflows.
