Sharepoint authentication error "We couldn't authenticate with the credentials provided"

 

HI Team 

I have several reports using files from Sharepoint as a data source. I used to have Organizational account setup for authentication.

but still not authenticate. please find below Screen shot for better understanding.

We used "Microsoft Account",sharepoint
The error translated: "We couldn't authenticate with the credentials provided. Please try again".
Does anyone have any idea has to why this is happening?
Thank you in advance
