hi there, im a bit new to deploying on services like railway, and im trying to deploy a springboot backend on railway, and it does work, but the issue is with cross-origins. my frontend is a https site, whereas the public link we get with railway is an http link. is there any way to remedy this, or am i SOL?

The public link should not be an HTTP link. What button are you pressing to generate it?

If you own a domain you should use that for both the frontend and backend, with the backend having a subdomain. (For example backend.example.com)

If not then you can press the generate domain button and that will give you a usable HTTPS link
i do have a domain i own, and i'm currently hosting my frontend on netlify

Perfect
i bought the domain from namecheap, and i'm using their nameservers instead of namecheaps

Vercel's nameservers?

I would just use Cloudflare here

I didn't even know Netlify had nameservers

The domain? Yes.

Go into the backend's service settings and use backend.example.com

It'll instruct you

Then on your frontend you can call backend.x

It should be yes 😁

The name servers might take a few hours to update but over all it'll work!

Yerp! Should be basically instant with Cloudflare as well.
