Office Script keeps erroring with"You cannot perform the requested operation."

Question

I have been using this automation for a while now and all of a sudden it has quit. I tried recreating it, changing some of the code myself, uninstalling Excel and reinstalling. I am assuming it must be a permissions issue somewhere, but I can't find it.

"You cannot perform the requested operation." This is what keeps popping up. I have tried other functions as well and keeps popping up with the same error.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Dear ItsDak,

Currently we receive some users reporting the issue with the error message when running Office Script in their environments. I just do a test today and it seems that there are some incidents in the feature service currently. I also encounter an error message when I use the feature in our environment.

I'm afraid that the issue is a service related issue and may involve our related team to be fixed. I kindly suggest you contact the administrator if you aren't the administrator and let him follow the steps in Get support - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn to open a support ticket to our related team as soon as possible so that they can help you fix the issue in your environment directly.

The administrator is always the first person who subscribes the Microsoft 365 business subscription or the IT administrator in your organization.

Thank you for your understanding and sorry for that we may have limited resources on helping you fix the issue at our side.
