❗ If you're using a VPN or a network protected by a firewall, this may interfere with and/or block the virtual platform and individual features. For the best performance, we recommend disabling the VPN and whitelisting the URL of the virtual platform (if you are on a network protected by a firewall). If you can't add the URL to the whitelist, we recommend switching to a different network.
