Got it working by adding this
# Simple requests
if ($request_method ~* "(GET|POST)") {
add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" *;
}
# Preflighted requests
if ($request_method = OPTIONS ) {
add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" *;
add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Methods" "GET, POST, OPTIONS, HEAD";
add_header "Access-Control-Allow-Headers" "Authorization, Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept";
return 200;
}
