Additional notes

2. If an admin disables an extension or integration, the restriction is applied immediately across the organization.
   
   
   
   

1. If a user is actively using an extension when the admin changes the permission settings, the extension session will be interrupted and the user will see a notification indicating that access has been restricted by the administrator. The user will need to close the extension and contact the admin if access is required again.
   

Troubleshooting 

Error/Symptom: I see a message that extension permissions were modified by the admin as I am working on my document

Possible cause: This message appears when an administrator disables Marketplace extension access while the extension is already open in a document. The extension session is stopped immediately to enforce the updated organization policy.

Recommended solution: To resolve this, you should contact your organization administrator to allow access to the extension has been restricted.
