403 Forbidden - Links in ASP.NET code behind

Question

I am building my website in ASP.NET Web Forms with User Accounts. I have just the example template that comes with the ASP.NET webforms and I'm going through trying to connect all the 2FA ans SendGrid peripherals. I would really like to read the documentation that the links are provided in each of the code sections but every link I click on to "Learn More" I am getting 403 forbidden.

Example in the IdentityModel.cs at the top

// You can add User data for the user by adding more properties to your User class, please visit https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=317594 to learn more.

Click that link and I'm 403 forbidden.

Im signed in here (obviously). So why can't I view the documentation for the template?

Hi @Jeremy Winslow,

I think it may be some policy adopted by Microsoft that makes it impossible to access aspx pages.

You can access it by just deleting the .aspx.

If you want to know the specific reason why you can't access, please ask for help in the Microsoft Developer Blog forum.
