    Enable this option if the API server sends back the origin header, such as Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://app.swaggerhub.com.

    Disable this option if the API server sends the Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * response header. Note: If this option is disabled, CORS requests will not include browser cookies or the Authorization header.
