Befor any Ajax call, make sure to add ‘Bearer’ token in header. If using JQuery use below code snippet.
$.ajax({
type: reqType,
beforeSend: function (xhr)
{
xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", 'Bearer {!$API.Session_ID}');},
headers : {'Content-Type' : 'application/json; charset=utf-8'},
url: postUrl,
data: postData,
dataType: 'text'
})
.done(function( data ) {
//Code if success
})
.fail(function(xhr,textstatus,error){
//Code if fail
}); - [adinserter block='9']

I was able to call a REST API from the javascript on a VF page.
function CallRestAPI()
{
var weblink = "http://URL";
$.ajax({
url : weblink,
type : 'GET',
dataType: 'json',
beforeSend: function (request){
request.setRequestHeader("HeaderName", "HeaderValue");
},
crossDomain: true,
success : function(result)
{
//process the result
},
error : function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert('Error: '+jqXHR.status);
alert('ErrorThrown: '+errorThrown)
}
});
}
