Copy guidelines

Explain likely causes: wrong origin, expired token, or blocked preflight—users cannot see HTTP bodies blocked by CORS.

Offer a short checklist matching your support runbooks to reduce duplicate tickets.

Internationalization

Localize error titles and actions; mirror the locale of the SPA route the user is on.

Test with VoiceOver and NVDA when RTL languages change reading order.
