How to access SharePoint data from add-in domains?
When you use the cross-domain library, the webpages in your add-in can access data in your add-in domain and the SharePoint domain. The cross-domain library is a client-side alternative in the form of a JavaScript file (SP.RequestExecutor.js) that is hosted on the SharePoint website that you can reference in your remote add-in.
SharePoint only supports cross-site calls (CORS) for SharePoint add-ins. Since SharePoint doesn’t return the headers and responses needed, Chrome blocks the cross-site request. While this is not supported, if you want to make a cross-site call to SharePoint, you can enable it by following the steps below.

This can be the domain of a remote web application in a provider-hosted add-in, but add-in pages can also be on SharePoint in the add-in web and make calls to the host web domain. In the latter scenario, the add-in domain is the domain of the add-in web.
Your add-in can issue client-side calls from the page only to other resources in the same domain. However, add-ins usually require resources from other domains, such as the SharePoint domain, to fulfill their scenarios. In the code on your page, you may try to issue a request to the SharePoint domain, which is blocked by the browser.
Can a user request a page from an add-in?
