HttpRequestException: Response status code does not indicate success: 403 (Forbidden)

Bugs

Hi,

I am using Infura API to connect to Ropsten testnet, have deployed a smart contract in Ropsten and able to Query the smart contract function that returns a view, but was not able to send a transaction through Infura API, Here is my Infura Project link
ropsten.infura.io/v3/57af8d0cb2024556b2e7af1a925ca074
Error is: Inner Exception 1:
HttpRequestException: Response status code does not indicate success: 403 (Forbidden).

At the beginning I though it is a Nethereum C# library issue, later confirmed from Library owner that it is a issue in Infura since same smart contract can be accessed through other infura project tokens.
Please help me in resolving the issue

Best regards
Puru

Surprisingly I was able to resolve this issue by removing the smart contract from White List in the Project.
Don’t know why I have to use Smart contracts white listing.
