    My guess is, there are some DLP policies in the Default Environment blocking you.
     
    Companies/Users should not really use Default at all. Its not good to do all your development etc there as it is a free for all. What companies do is block that through DLP policies and Roles.
     
    So you'd have to find out what roles you have and if any dlp policies exist, or change into your dev/other environment and work there.

    If these suggestions help resolve your issue, Please consider Marking the answer as such and also maybe a like.

    Thank you!
    Sincerely, Michael Gernaey
