To workaround the CORS issue with Apollo you have to pass the no-cors option to the underlying fetch.

import ApolloClient from "apollo-boost";

const client = new ApolloClient({
  uri: "your client uri goes here",
  fetchOptions: {
    mode: 'no-cors',
  },
});

This is not a specific Apollo problem, rather a configuration that is meant to be tackled on the fetch side, see this for more information: https://developers.google.com/web/ilt/pwa/working-with-the-fetch-api#cross-origin_requests

I wonder why it does works with Axios for you, I'd expect you to have the no-cors mode set somewhere.
