Issue with

Dear All,

I am following "https://github.com/SharePoint/sp-dev-docs/blob/master/docs/solution-guidance/provisioning-console-application-sample.md" for SharePoint site provisioning.

Unfortuantely I am getting the following error at ProvisioningTemplate template = ctx.Web.GetProvisioningTemplate(ptci);

Authentication seems to work correct as the following lines work:

Web web = ctx.Web;
ctx.Load(web, w => w.Title);
ctx.ExecuteQueryRetry();

Error

The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

Can you kindly help.

Start with the referenced provisioning-console-application-sample.md and the call at Provisioning\Program.cs line 47. Compare the successful ExecuteQueryRetry call with GetProvisioningTemplate and use the supplied stack trace to investigate the 403 response during form-digest retrieval. Done would require a confirmed cause and a documented or tested resolution, neither of which is specified here.
