Add and Customize pages Error

[Tim Miller]

When attempting to setup DFFS on our SharePoint Online environment I keep getting an error that says I do not have permission to Add or Customize pages.

I have tried using the CEWP, V1, V2 and App installer all getting the same error. I have enabled customer scripting, have SharePoint Admin credentials, Site owner, modified the site permissions to add the “add or customize pages” permission. when I do the check permission it shows a deny on the add and customize.

From the error message it seems you might not have successfully enabled custom scripting. Try creating a classic web part page by going to this address:

https://your_tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/your_site/_layouts/15/spcf.aspx

Create the web part page in for example SitePages and then edit the page, click Add a Web Part and see if you find the Content Editor Web Part under Media and Content.

Custom scripting is enabled and I did create the web part page using the URL provided, still received the same error.

I was able connect to the tenant via PowerShell and run the commands

Connect-SPOService -Url “https://<tenant>-admin.sharepoint.com&#8221;
Set-SPOSite -Identity <url> -DenyAddAndCustomizePages $false

I was then able to get the installer to function and load into DFFS successfully.
