Q:

Azure CDN with HTTPS not working

I want to have all my static files (css,js,images) on Azure CDN, I followed this tutorial:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/cdn-serve-content-from-cdn-in-your-web-application/
I had in my app the following lines pointing to files in azure storage blob container:
<link href="https://stact1.blob.core.windows.net/cdn/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="https://stact1.blob.core.windows.net/cdn/Content/animate.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="https://stact1.blob.core.windows.net/cdn/Content/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

and my website renders perfectly fine

However according to the tutorial I should change the url to use the CDN.
So I changed above to:
<link href="https://az780954.vo.msecnd.net/cdn/Content/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <link href="https://az780954.vo.msecnd.net/cdn/Content/animate.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <link href="https://az780954.vo.msecnd.net/cdn/Content/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

then everything is screwed up:

If I remove the https, I see no connections done on the network tab on developer tools, If I put https, I see 403 Errors.
The problem is HTTPS is enabled on the CDN

A:

Given that your https links are all now working the issue you saw would have been just due to delay for the SSL configuration to propagate. All configuration changes for Azure CDN can take up to 60 minutes to propagate to all CDN POP's (i.e. CDN data centers). CDN configuration is the only item that has a delay associated with it. Content is automatically cached to individual POP's when clients makes a request for the content. If clients don't make any requests for your content no content is cached on the CDN POP's.
