Ajax call with withCredentials: true is not sending cookie in request

问题

My scenario: example.com is a django page which is being visited by user. session is set by server. Now, I have frontend app on another domain called xyz.com, Now, I need to call APIs on example.com, so I am trying to make ajax call with withCredentials: true. but it does not seems to sending cookie 'sessionId' in request.

I have already seen some stack overflow answers, but suggested answers are not working. link1 link2 link3

What I have been trying : My backend is written in Django, so I tried setting

CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True
    # Cross Origin Request Settings (CROS)
CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True
CORS_ALLOW_METHODS = (
    'GET',
    'POST',
    'PUT',
    'PATCH',
    'DELETE',
    'OPTIONS'
)
CORS_ALLOW_HEADERS = (
    'x-requested-with',
    'content-type',
    'accept',
    'origin',
    'authorization',
    'x-csrftoken',
    'cache',
    'cookie',
)

CORS_ORIGIN_WHITELIST = [
    '*'
]

SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY = False

SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN = 'example.com'

I am using ajax to make api calls on example.com

jQuery.ajax({
 url: "http://example.com/api/v1/admin/settings/",
 dataType: 'json',
 xhrFields: { withCredentials: true },
 success: function(data) {
 console.log(data);
 }
});

I am answering to my question so that it can help in case if someone is stuck at same situation.

I found out that in django SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE is by default Lax.

'Lax' (default): provides a balance between security and usability for websites that want to maintain user’s logged-in session after the user arrives from an external link.

In the GitHub scenario, the session cookie would be allowed when following a regular link from an external website and be blocked in CSRF-prone request methods (e.g. POST).

So I had to set it to None in settings to allow browser sending cookie.

SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE = None
