 * [@yatmatch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yatmatch/) thanks for reaching
   out!
 * 1) Could you attempt to connect to Adsense in an [incognito browser window](https://i.imgur.com/ALzgiHp.png)
   and let us know if you are able to proceed?
 * 2) If not, please provide your [Site Health Information](https://i.imgur.com/Rtkmsba.png)
   through [this form](https://forms.gle/3nkArPu3ZCf4ELFG6) so we can check Site
   Kit’s status on your site.

   in wp-config the issue went away. WordPress was behind nginx on Linux instance
