3768104 - "Request header field firefly-invalidate-caches is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response." in SAP Analytics Cloud

Symptom

When opening a SAC story based on a BW live data model, the following CORS error can be found in the console log tab (Chrome/Edge developer tools, please check KBA 2280022): 

-------------
"Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://<ABAP_HOTS><SESSION_ID>/bw/ina/GetResponse?sap-client=<CLIENT_ID&sap-language=EN&sap-sessionviaurl=X' from origin 'https://<SAC_HOST>' has been blocked by CORS policy: Request header field firefly-invalidate-caches is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response."
-------------

The error doesn't necessarily impacts the SAC story usage, however it's required more information about how to avoid this.
