 * Hi @nchisley thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear you’re having this
   problem. We have seen this problem in the past caused by a [setting in the Brave browser](https://imgur.com/a/yOlAe6v)
   which is switched on by default causing this error and stopping you from setting
   up Site Kit.
 * If you are using the Brave browser then you will need to switch this setting 
   off to complete Site Kit setup. This will also stop you connecting any of the
   modules within Site Kit if this setting is switched back on.
 * Please could you confirm if this is the cause and if not then I will be happy
   to look further into this for you.

 * The same issue occurs after activating SiteKit plugin. I uploaded the plugin 
   and installed properly. When I tried to activate the plugin,
 * This is the message:
 * **invalid parameter: ‘client_id’**
 * Am using Firefox browser.
 * What can you tell me?
