Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Failed to fetch and Cors error

Adding mode:'no-cors' to the request header guarantees that no response will be available in the response

Adding a “non standard” header, line 'access-control-allow-origin' will trigger a OPTIONS preflight request, which your server must handle correctly in order for the POST request to even be sent

You’re also doing fetch wrong … fetch returns a “promise” for a Response object which has promise creators for json, text, etc. depending on the content type…

In short, if your server side handles CORS correctly (which from your comment suggests it does) the following should work

function send(){
    var myVar = {"id" : 1};
    console.log("tuleb siia", document.getElementById('saada').value);
    fetch("http://localhost:3000", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
            "Content-Type": "text/plain"
        },
        body: JSON.stringify(myVar)
    }).then(function(response) {
        return response.json();
    }).then(function(muutuja){
        document.getElementById('väljund').innerHTML = JSON.stringify(muutuja);
    });
}

however, since your code isn’t really interested in JSON (it stringifies the object after all) – it’s simpler to do

function send(){
    var myVar = {"id" : 1};
    console.log("tuleb siia", document.getElementById('saada').value);
    fetch("http://localhost:3000", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
            "Content-Type": "text/plain"
        },
        body: JSON.stringify(myVar)
    }).then(function(response) {
        return response.text();
    }).then(function(muutuja){
        document.getElementById('väljund').innerHTML = muutuja;
    });
}
