Getting this error when trying to connect my WordPress.

 

We hit an error adding your new account

authentication failed: 403 Forbidden: Access Denied. Please see common causes and fixes for 403 errors at https://zapier.com/help/doc/common-problems-wordpress#403-forbidden-error.

  1. Make sure you click "Allow" or "Accept" on the permission popup
  2. Double check your Account has the correct permissions
  3. Check out our help docs for more information

 

NO i am not using Jetpack or any other plugin that would block.

I am using PLESK for my server.

What permission popup is it referring to? I didn't see any popup.

Thanks for following up here, @Credence!

Really pleased you were able to fix this by adjusting the MOD Security rules on your server. Great work! :relaxed:
