Blocking Jetpack and Google Site Kit

I’ve configured the plugin to block access to XML-RPC server as well as Block access to users’ data via REST API; Block access to WordPress REST API except any of the following; Allow access to REST API for logged-in users.

I’ve added jetpack and google-site-kit to the allowed namespaces.

I continue to get an error from Site Kit that the response is not a valid JSON and in WP Cerber all the REST-API traffic for both Jetpack and Site Kit show a 404 error in the traffic inspector.

Aside from allowing all REST-API traffic are there other settings that will allow these two plugins to work properly?

I also noticed that when I save the page with REST-API exception I get an error message at the top: ERROR: Unable to get access to the file /code/.htaccess My site is on an nginx server so there is no htaccess file.
