apihelp-main-param-maxlag (Talk) (Translate) Maximum lag can be used when MediaWiki is installed on a database replicated cluster. To save actions causing any more site replication lag, this parameter can make the client wait until the replication lag is less than the specified value. In case of excessive lag, error code <samp>maxlag</samp> is returned with a message like <samp>Waiting for $host: $lag seconds lagged</samp>.<br />See [[mw:Manual:Maxlag_parameter|Manual: Maxlag parameter]] for more information.
apihelp-main-param-origin (Talk) (Translate) When accessing the API using a cross-domain AJAX request (CORS), set this to the originating domain. This must be included in any pre-flight request, and therefore must be part of the request URI (not the POST body).

If this parameter does not match the <code>Origin</code> header, a 403 response will be returned. If this parameter matches the <code>Origin</code> header and the origin is whitelisted, an <code>Access-Control-Allow-Origin</code> header will be set.
