I have an auto export option that runs in the panel `update()` method. This works fine until I created a new artboard. Then I get the following error:

> Plugin Error: Plugin abc123 is not permitted to make changes from the background. Return a Promise to continue execution asynchronously.

**Steps**

1. Have panel open
2. Have method with await call in the `update()` method. Make sure it works.
3. Create a new artboard with panel open.

did you use the `editDocument` method? Any changes to the document requires to be wrapped in this function in the panel world. Docs coming out soon for the general release soon
