The gist of a convo with IT when I needed to work around some parameters:<p>&quot;Hey IT dept. I understand the reason for our network restrictions, but we have a lot of data that we need to get to [some endpoint] using [some method].&quot;<p>&quot;Sorry, we can&#x27;t relax the restrictions. You have to work within the parameters.&quot;<p>&quot;But the parameters do not allow me to complete my job.&quot;<p>&quot;Sorry.&quot;<p>I&#x27;d love to work within the parameters, but when IT won&#x27;t budge, you&#x27;re stuck with the least preferrable method.
