Yes, using a VPN can sometimes cause a 403 error. VPNs can alter your IP address, potentially making it appear as if you're accessing GA4 from a different location or network, which might trigger security measures. Try disabling your VPN and checking if the error disappears. If that doesn't work, try a different VPN server location.
