CORs error on forced download links
I am trying to request an obj file from a publicly shared link.
The link is "https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xh3vmyt9d74cl5cbhqgpm/Antigen.obj?rlkey=b4zcediso03wiuc96w3agm6rg&dl=1"
Which successfully downloads if you go directly to it, but when I try to load it in my site, I get this error:
`Access to fetch at 'https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xh3vmyt9d74cl5cbhqgpm/Antigen.obj?rlkey=b4zcediso03wiuc96w3agm6rg&dl=1' from origin 'https://simularium.allencell.org' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.`
I am using the THREE.js OBJLoader
This workflow used to work for us. Has something changed?
yes so what ended up working for me was:
with a url that has `dl=1` and a `rlkey` as parameters.thanks!
It's a very recently generated link, so I assume the "new style", I also put the link in my message so you should be able to see the format.

Could you try the suggestions in this thread to see if they help by changing the URL of the file?
