**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**  
We need to enable a setting for our app users (`custom_live_streaming_service`), but we get a 204 response when attempting to enable it even if the setting is locked to `false` at the account level.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
An error response stating that the setting cannot be changed because an admin has locked it.

**Describe alternatives you’ve considered**  
For now we will always have to call PATCH then GET and assume if it failed that the admin has locked the setting.
