Azure - call List Subscription Operations API

I am trying to call the REST API described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/gg715318.aspx

My code looks like:

WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create("https://management.core.windows.net/subid/operations?StartTime=2013-08-20&EndTime=2013-08-21");
req.Headers["x-ms-version"] = "2012-03-01";
req.Method = "GET";
HttpWebResponse resp = req.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;

When that code executes I get a WebException with the error "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden."

I am not that familiar with Azure but I have read that I "might" have to register a certificate or something in order to access? The REST API does not mention that though.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks, Andrew

All Service Management operations must be authenticated. From the docs:

The Windows Azure Service Management API use mutual authentication of management certificates over SSL to ensure that a request made to the service is secure. No anonymous requests are allowed.

The documentation for this is here.

You need to add authorization token to the request header that is to be set up in your AD.
