Angular 2 doesn't save my Authentication Cookie with CORS

Question

I have an angular 2 app which should authenticate to a Node Express backend where it sends an login request to the backend and receives a cookie. It should send this cookie

Answer 1

By default angular is not sending cookies. Try pass { withCredentials: true } to your RequestOptions:

let options = new RequestOptions({ headers: headers, withCredentials: true });
this.http.post(this.connectUrl,  , options);
