    “There was an error accessing the WP REST API. Instant
   Images requires access to the WP REST API via POST request to fetch and upload
   images to your media library.”

 * [@marcorroma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcorroma/) Do you have a 
   security plugin running on your website? If so, which one are you using? It may
   be a config setting blocking the REST API.
