I am searching for that option in our environment, but i can’t find it :  
[Allow external requests | Dynatrace Developer](https://developer.dynatrace.com/develop/app-functions/allow-outbound-connections/)

I don’t have “Environment” only “Preferences” with a subtitle “Environment Settings” and i can’t find anywhere Allow Outbound connections.

Can anybody guide me?

[@mferstl](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/38390)&nbsp;I think you might be looking at “Settings Classic” screen, the instructions in the doc are for the new “Settings” screen.

Here is where you would find it

In the “Settings Classic” you would find it under Preferences

Make sure you have the right policy in place:

```markup
ALLOW settings:objects:read, settings:objects:write, settings:schemas:read
WHERE settings:schemaId = "builtin:dt-javascript-runtime.allowed-outbound-connections";

```
