 * Hi! Good evening,
 * Trying to link my site with Google Site Kit, but keep on getting Site Kit: Error:
   Bad Request (missing parameter:’code’.) I have been searching and immersing myself
   in blogs, videos and forums but there is no way to solve this problem. Can you
   help me to solve this problem?
 * Thanks. Marcel.

 * I ran into this issue recently. I had a few factors I removed from the equation
   and it worked.
 * I had a network adblocker enabled, due to the analytics and ads relationship,
   I thought this might have been interfering. — I disabled it. — Issue was not 
   resolved.
 * I use multiple signed-on google accounts. — I logged out of all but the one with
   GA. — Issue was not resolved.
 * I use Brave browser, and even though I had “shields down” I switched to Chrome
   for this. — Worked on the first try.
 * If you’re running into this issue, I’d suggest you try using an alternative browser
   to your regular browser, Opera, Firefox, Vivaldi, Chrome, whatever, just to test
   it.

 * You can solve this problem by changing the browser.

 * [@jamesosborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) you’re welcome.
   I just kept running into it and the error is not descriptive enough to be helpful
   so this might help others troubleshoot. Just basic stuff, start from scratch 
   with minimal interference and add chaos slowly to identify the problem. 🤣

 * [Oscar Gonzalez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rakxzo/) (@rakxzo)’s advice
   to switch from Brave browser to another browser allowed me to use Site Kit. I
   used Safari to get the job done.
 * I was getting “Error: Bad Request (missing parameter: ‘code’)” after installing
   Site Kit > clicking the Set up button > which takes me to Google to sign in >
   which takes me to the error page. All solved now thanks to [Oscar Gonzalez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rakxzo/)(
   @rakxzo)’s advice.

 * The error is pretty bad and leaves you clueless as to how to set things up, and
   had to resort to checking this forum for an answer. Unfortunately, going incognito
   in Brave did not solve this for me, but using Safari worked and let me continue
   on with the rest of the setup.

 * FYI for others. I can confirm that this is just a Brave Browser problem (even
   with shields turned off)
 * Use a different browser and it should work just fine.
