# Error 403 when connecting

 * Installed and activated the plugin.
    However, even with Jetpack installed as 
   well, I get the following error when trying to connect WordPress in Zapier:
 * > 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](https://zapier.com/help/doc/common-problems-wordpress#403-forbidden-error).
 * The common problems page does not help at all unfortunately.
    Tried everything
   listed there, no luck so far.
 * Does anybody know a solution for this issue or a different working alternative?
 * Many thanks,
    Michael

 * Actually just found the solution for this. I added all of the IPs for AWS to 
   the WAF allowlist and it connected just fine.

 * I also have this error. What IPs have to be added to firewall?

 * The IP range list is massive, does anyone have an idea of how to most efficiently
   add the list to Cloudflare?
