In relation to the other errors, specific to the different modules please open a [new support topic](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/google-site-kit/#new-post) and we’d be happy to assist. * In relation to the “you haven’t granted all permissions requested during setup…” notice this is most likely as a result of not granting permission when setting up the individual modules.
