Hey there @dan-auth0, tagging you for visbility!

Hello @heathernstorey, Welcome to the Auth0 Community.

This Flask/Python API code sample has CORS enabled and accepts requests from the origin defined through the CLIENT_ORIGIN_URL environment variable. We suggest setting this value to http://localhost:4040 since this is the origin of the Hello World client applications. However, if you’re pairing this API with a client application running on a different host or port, please update the CLIENT_ORIGIN_URL to match your application’s origin.

Let us know if that works for you or if you need further assistance. Please provide us with more details to reproduce your issue.

Thanks,

Byron

Thank you for your help. This is what I see when I type “flask run” and attempt to visit.
