How to understand the Socrata FORBIDDEN 403 ERROR

It appears to be a new issue because these requests have been working for months.

The Catalog API request now suddenly shows 403 Forbidden errors. But if we run it locally it works. This may be an IP Rate limiting issue but the documentation says 429 should be returned.

To see a live example go to https://open.tidalforce.org/opendata/all/us/

BUT the exact same request works from the EU version of the API see https://open.tidalforce.org/opendata/all/eu/

This request even has an X-App-Token header and/or the Basic Authentication API KEY and still it receives a 403 Forbidden.

Is there anyone at Socrata or out there that can help? The caller ip address is 35.203.245.121

Socrata Status page shows no relevant errors https://status.socrata.com/

Socrata Query is https://api.us.socrata.com/api/catalog/v1?q=&limit=100

The caller's Public IP address is: 35.203.245.121

The HTTP GET returns:

<html>
<head><title>403 Forbidden</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>403 Forbidden</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>
</body>
</html>
