Explanation
The first thing an integration architect should validate if a callout from a Lightning Web Component to an external endpoint is failing is the endpoint domain has been added to Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS).
CORS is a mechanism that allows web browsers to make requests to servers on different origins, such as different domains, protocols, or ports. CORS requires the server to send back a special header that indicates whether the browser is allowed to access the resource or not. If the endpoint domain is not added to the CORS whitelist in Salesforce, the browser will block the callout and throw an error. Option B is not correct because Content Security Policies (CSP) are used to control what resources can be loaded on a Visualforce or Lightning page, such as scripts, stylesheets, images, etc. CSP does not affect the callout from a Lightning Web Component to an external endpoint. Option C is not correct because outbound firewall rules are used to restrict the network traffic from Salesforce to external systems. Firewall rules are configured at the network level, not at the Salesforce level. Option D is not correct because Remote Site Settings are used to specify the domains that are allowed for callouts from Apex code, not from Lightning Web Components. References:
