 * Hi [@ferbato](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ferbato/),
 * 403 is an HTTP response coming from your server saying that your server -pardon
   the redundancy- rejected WPP’s request to update the views count of your posts/
   pages.
 * Generally speaking this is caused by third party plugins that block access to
   the REST API (see [Is WordPress Popular Posts compatible with security / firewall plugins?](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/5.-FAQ#is-wordpress-popular-posts-compatible-with-security--firewall-plugins))
   or by some rules in your .htaccess file.
 * You’ll need to allow WPP access to the REST API so it can do its job.
