Tutorial | Open edX Nutmeg with Tutor 14 on Ubuntu 20 and disabling rate limiting step by step

Hi,

I am new to Open edX and wanted to disable CORS (i.e. set CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL to true) on my server to have smooth API access. I was not being able to access the APIs from Postman. Below are the logs for a request from postman which was getting errors :

I looked around but solutions didn’t seem to work out, one of them did work out and then I wrote a post about it and published it with screenshots on my blog at

This post is focused on how to setup Open edX Nutmeg with Tutor 14 on Ubuntu 20. Hope it helps the community.
