Error opening report in Desktop Version

Hi, I receive the following error when I try to open a published report on my desktop app. I have access to this report. Could you please advise what may be causing this error? 

 

"We couldn't connect to your Analysis Services database. Double-check that your server and database names are correct, and that you have permission to access them."
Status: Investigating

Hi,@hbaile29 .I am glad to help you.
Have you tried to edit the data source credentials for the report, please provide the correct data source credentials to validate your identity information, this may solve your problem.

Check that these configurations are correct:
Make sure your network connection is working and that you can access the database server. Sometimes network problems can cause the connection to fail.

Firewall and security settings: Check your firewall and security settings to make sure they are not blocking Power BI Desktop from accessing the database.

Try clearing the datasource cache and reconfiguring the correct datasource credentials.

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
Best Regards,
