Very Nice 😄 Because of this I was able to call REST API from Angular.
@niket123 please could you share an example to call REST API from Angular?

Hi Richard,
I'm finding that to get it to work on a MyDomain enabled org, you need to strip the MyDomain name from the SERVER_URL.
I created a forked version that does it, but I'm sure there's a cleaner way to do it.
