Ory CLI provides a convenient way to configure and manage projects. Additionally, the CLI contains Ory Proxy - a reverse proxy | ||
that rewrites cookies to match the domain your application is currently on. | ||
The Ory security model uses HTTP cookies to manage sessions, tokens, and cookies. Because of browser security measures like | ||
[CORS](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS), Ory APIs must be exposed on the same domain as your application. | ||
|
||
Ory Proxy is a reverse proxy deployed in front of your application. The Proxy mirrors Ory endpoints on the same domain as the | ||
application you're running and rewrites cookies to match the domain your application is currently on. | ||
In the case of this example the application runs on your local machine. The cookie domain is `localhost`. | ||
|
||
As a result, the origin of the cookies is set correctly to the domain you run the app on instead of <br /> | ||
:::info | ||
|
||
``` | ||
<your-project-slug>.projects.oryapis.com | ||
``` | ||
When developing locally, use either `localhost` or `127.0.0.1`, but not both. Although technically these mean the same thing, | ||
they're different cookie domains. | ||
|
||
Using both interchangeably in your code causes problems, as Ory APIs will not receive the cookies when they are set on a different | ||
domain. | ||
|
||
::: | ||
|
||
This behavior is necessary to avoid issues with the browser [CORS policy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS). | ||
<p> | ||
Ory CLI provides a convenient way to configure and manage projects. Additionally, the CLI provides Ory{" "} | ||
{props.isTunnel ? "Tunnel" : "Proxy"} - a reverse proxy that rewrites cookies to match the domain your application is currently | ||
on. | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
By using the Proxy, you can easily connect the application you're developing locally to Ory Network and consume the APIs without | ||
additional configuration or the self-hosting any Ory services. | ||
<p> | ||
To make Ory APIs and your application available on the same domain, Ory {props.isTunnel ? "Tunnel" : "Proxy"} mirrors Ory | ||
endpoints and rewrites cookies to match the domain correct domain. | ||
