I know its not a big issue to resolve But i am facing problem to consume web api in asp.net MVC web api. I am getting below error: XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://192.168.1.71:800/api/IzoGlass/ToolLocationData. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:58469' is therefore not allowed access. I've searched and find solution but not working fine with my application. Description :-When i am consuming web api from same domain in my application its working fine. but whenever i am consuming webapi from other domain its throwing error. given above.

The error you are getting due to CORS. CORS stands for cross originrequest service restricts to get requests from other domain.
