Power BI Access Error when connecting Share Point?
Hello,
I am getting an error when I connect to Share point. I am getting "Details: "Access to the resource is forbidden."". Then I researched online and found that you have to clear some permissions. When I go there, nothing. I can access my folder online. Can anyone please let me know to connect to my folder in Sharepoint? This is my first time using Sharepoint so I don't know if there is a setting on my or admin site to change or something wrong with my link.
My link - https://h********b.sharepoint.com/sites/H*******B
Error
Nothing to clear on permission
Any help on how to connect will be really appreciated.
Thank you

If you try to get an excel. Please make sure remove ?web=1 , very similar what has been done in one drive https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-use-onedrive-business-links
