Cause (Documented platform behavior): Documented: 403 with this text indicates an abuse-policy suspension, distinct from network-access 403s.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Misleading approaches:
- Rotating keys or changing RBAC/network rules (the suspension is policy-based).
Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
- https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-ai-docs/blob/main/articles/foundry/openai/how-to/troubleshoot-errors.md (official_docs, 2026-09, documented_behavior): HTTP 403 section distinguishes network-access denial from abuse-policy suspension (message contains "resource has been temporarily blocked"; all requests 403) and prescribes a support request.
