 * Hello,
 * REST API is DISABLED is a message we occasionally see. The person tried to edit
   a woocommerce product and they have the role of administrator.
 * The role and their i/p address are whitelisted and granted access to REST APIs.
 * Is there a log file that I can check or view the next time this person is blocked
   from an administrative task.. I’m trying to figure out the cause of this.
 * Thanks,
    K.

 * If a REST API request was blocked by WP Cerber, it was logged and can be found
   on the Activity tab. Use filter “Request to REST API denied”.
