    A 403 error when connecting to a Microsoft List in C# typically indicates a permissions issue. Ensure that your application has the correct Wind permissions and that the user has access to the list. Verify that your authentication tokens or credentials are valid and properly configured. Check the API or resource permissions in Azure AD or SharePoint settings.

    A 403 error typically indicates a forbidden access issue. It could be due to insufficient permissions or authentication problems when connecting to the Microsoft List in C#. Double-check your credentials and ensure you have proper authorization to access the Lotus365 list. Also, review any firewall or security settings that might be blocking the connection. Hope this helps.

    A 403 error typically indicates a "Forbidden" status code, suggesting that the server understood the request, but it refuses to authorize it. This could be due to various reasons such as Ensure NSFAS insufficient permissions, authentication issues, or server-side restrictions. Double-check your credentials and permissions to ensure proper access, and review any server-side configurations that might be restricting access to the Microsoft List.

      Hey mate Also, make sure there are no IP restrictions or blocked access policies on the Repay balance server side. Sometimes, clearing cookies or trying a different browser can also help.

      jhonsmertin841  Hi, Verifying credentials and permissions is a crucial first step, and it’s also worth checking if any recent Gazette server-side changes could be affecting access rights.

      Good explanation! A 403 error often points to permission or access issues. Double-checking both user permissions and server Shading settings is a solid first step, as is verifying any recent changes that might affect access rights.
