I’ve been seeing some inconsistent cors issues when fetching https://assets.ion.cesium.com/us-east-1/asset_depot/1/CesiumWorldTerrain/v1.2/layer.json Preflight works fine but actual fetching fails with a CORS error.
I’m also seeing it in sandcastle’s as well ex. Cesium Sandcastle
This alert pops up while loading
I disabled all extensions to verify and I sometimes see the layer.json file being fetched correctly and when it gets cached, it works fine afterwards.
