## You are seeing one of the following errors while sending requests

* CORS Error: The request is blocked because of the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing ( CORS ) policy.
* Error: Browser does not support cross-origin requests.

## How to unblock yourself

Install the Postman Desktop Agent for your OS on our [download page](https://www.postman.com/downloads/postman-agent/).

* **Note:** The CORS error generally happens due to browser limitations regarding resources shared between different internet domains. Please refer to this [blog post](https://blog.postman.com/introducing-the-postman-agent-send-api-requests-from-your-browser-without-limits/) for more information about CORS and how the Postman Desktop Agent works.
