Allow or prevent custom script

As a Global Administrator or SharePoint Administrator in Microsoft 365, you can allow custom script as a way of letting users change the look, feel, and behavior of sites and pages to meet organizational objectives or individual needs. If you allow custom script, all users who have "Add and Customize Pages" permission to a site or page can add any script they want. (By default, users who create sites are site owners and therefore have this permission.)

Demonstrates how to determine whether custom script on SharePoint site is enabled and enable it if disabled
