Box JS SDK FilePicker Does Not Send Access Token In the API

I'm getting 401 and what I've stumbled on is that there is no authorization header with a token set in the header in the api call

I compared my pre-flight to the demo and it seems that in my pre-flight request there is no authorization header in the list in  Acces-Control-Allow-Header; therefore in the subsequent API call my browser does not send the bearer token.  Why is authorization missing from the list???

I'm using Box ContentPicker's latest vision via CDN following this guide https://developer.box.com/guides/embed/ui-elements/picker. Please advise!

    Can I get an update on this? Just to reiterate the issue, I'm not sure why there is no authorization header set in the preflight request. If I manually added the token myself the API works just fine. I'm not sure why the lib is skipping it in my case.

    HI Scott

    Can you share the actual HTML where you load the picker in your page? You always need to provide a token and a folder id for it to load
