Fulvio When you enable CORS, all domains * are whitelisted at the moment. Are you looking to whitelist only certain domains?

Im getting Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘https://ts.domain.com/multi_search?x-typesense-api-key=xxxxxxxx’ from origin ‘https://wv21.domain.com’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.

We don't support narrowing down the list at the moment. Could you open a Github issue about this?
