  20 +## Connecting to Noosfero
  21 +
  22 +One way to connect with Noosfero API is to set the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header on the Noosfero side and thus allow connections.
  23 +
  24 +Another way is to set a reverse proxy on a webserver in front of Noosfero. For example, let's assume there is
  25 +a host called `confjuv`. If you have the following Apache configuration for this site, you can access the front-end
  26 +by going to http://confjuv/www and any other request path will be forwarded to Noosfero running on `localhost:3000`:
  27 +
  28 +```apache
  29 +<VirtualHost *:80>
  30 + ServerName confjuv
  31 + DocumentRoot /var/www/confjuvapp # This is the ConfJuvApp directory inside this repository
  32 + ProxyPass /www !
  33 + ProxyPass / http://localhost:3000/
  34 + ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3000/
