Resolution

If you are not the website owner, provide the website owner with a screenshot of the 1020 error message you received.

If you are the website owner:

1. Retrieve a screenshot of the 1020 error from your customer.
2. Search the Security Events log (available at Security > Events) for the RayID or client IP Address from the visitor's 1020 error message.

Note

Convert the UTC timestamp of the 1020 error to your local timezone when searching in the Security Events log.

3. Assess the cause of the block and either update the Firewall Rule or allow the visitor's IP address in IP Access Rules.
