I am trying to get data from a sharepoint folder. Every time I try, I get an error message that says "access to the resource is forbidden". I saw that I should try deleting the permissions under data source settings, but I am still getting the error message. Does anyone have any solutions?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @Anonymous
Do you use the correct authentication method and do you have actual access to that folder?
The correct authentication method should be Microsoft Account.
Hai @Anonymous
please assure that you have the access for a particular table
I am the owner of the Team and folder that the Sharepoint link is referring to and I did try Microsoft as the authentication. Is it possible that I would have limited access because of my organization's controls?
@Anonymous
Make sure you put just the root address for that folder and then navigate through Trasnform Data to access your desired data.
