 * Hi there [@wrwl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wrwl/),
 * Thanks for reaching out. As we’re currently investigating reports of this it 
   would be great if you could share the following:
    1. Your [Site Health information](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lhjns2K7c0Ny7ME4gxTcsnYtNUtcMr8BvFpPQi23Y1E/edit).
       Within the form please include your current hosting provider.
    2. When checking the Site Kit dashboards from a Chrome browser [incognito window](https://i.imgur.com/ALzgiHp.png)
       do you see any browser [console errors](https://imgur.com/KyLAzgH.png) on the
       same screen where this notice appears? If so please share any such errors.
    3. Have you been able to set up Site Kit successfully on this site previously, 
       or on any other sites on the same hosting platform?
 * Let me know if you have any questions with the above. Once we have this information
   we can investigate this further or provide you with some troubleshooting suggestions,
   which may include attempting setup from another site on the same hosting platform
   or using another Google account to attempt setup.
 * [@dropoutcode](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dropoutcode/) Would it be 
   possible for you to also share the above information [within an individual support topic](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/google-site-kit/#new-post)
   we can investigate this further?

   Out of curiosity are you using a specific browser to attempt setup? If so please
   check does the same occur from a Chrome browser.

 * [@sumiglez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumiglez/) Many thanks for the
   update, great to know. It does seem there is a “_[Auto-redirect AMP pages](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/41326532/167390358-9cf7515b-c7b9-4472-b481-12176cc6028c.png)_”
   configuration within the Brave browser, enabled by default, which may result 
   in this error.
 * [@wrwl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wrwl/) Feel free to attempt Site 
   Kit setup once more with this setting within Brave temporarily disabled, or from
   another browser.
 * Let me know how you get on after performing one of the above.

   a [new support topic](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/google-site-kit/#new-post)
   if you continue to encounter issues, or reopen this topic and we’d be happy to
   assist.
