Configuring access-control-allow-origin in Nginx is typically done to allow cross-origin requests. You can achieve this by adding the following code to the Nginx configuration file:

location / {
    add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
    add_header Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, POST, OPTIONS";
    add_header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Authorization, Content-Type";
}

The above configuration will add the Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * header to all requests, allowing requests from any origin. You can also modify the value of Access-Control-Allow-Origin as needed, for example, specifying a specific domain.

Please note that cross-origin requests may pose security risks, so it is advisable to configure them carefully according to the actual situation.
