Firewalls or network proxies are blocking access

Note
If you have an Enterprise plan and your organization uses firewalls or network proxies, they might block access to Adobe Express services preventing the editor from loading or saving changes. Contact your IT admin and provide information on troubleshooting WebSocket issues related to missing upgrade headers and how domains must be allowed for Adobe apps and services to work properly.
