    Hi Anonymous ,

    The 403 error typically indicates a permissions issue or a problem with the authentication process.

    Please check:
    1. Ensure that the user account you're using to connect Power BI to Snowflake has the necessary permissions. You might need the role or a custom role with sufficient privileges to access the required data.
    2. If you're using OAuth for authentication, make sure that the setup is correctly configured in both Snowflake and Power BI.

    3. If you are using basic authentication, try removing and refilling your credentials in Power BI.
    4. Ensure that there are no network issues or configurations (such as firewalls or proxy settings) that might be blocking the connection from Power BI to Snowflake.
