System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. ---> System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

The code is

Your .NET application probably runs the wrong SecurityProtocol.

Try adding

System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;

To your code

Or possibly

System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
