Was this external site already published? I am with besadmin and BigFix license Overview updated but even so the external site doesn’t show up to be enabled.

This may be related to a recent gather server certificate change. Take a look at this: Important note on LicenseUpdater or Airgap Errors due to certificate

I also needed to follow the hint provided above.
