Error: "You don't have permission to use a WebSocket server in this workspace."

I’ve been using Postman to test web socket connections with Elixir Phoenix. It was working previously, but today I’m getting this error and it does not make a network request to the server:

You don’t have permission to use a WebSocket server in this workspace.

I made sure that I’m doing New > WebSocket Request to get started, as the guide says, but that doesn’t help.

What does this error mean?

Hmmm. I signed out in the desktop app and signed back in (BTW, it’s really weird to sign out and in with a desktop app) and now it’s working.

@amightymustelid My guess there was an update that had started applying in the background and it needed a restart to be fully applied, but if that’s the case we should definitely surface it better. Good it’s working again though!
