yes, you need to clear the permissions for that connection and choose anonymous. Power Query has a bad habit of caching credentials, including the wrong ones you chose.

    Hi AshishChadda18 ,
    
    I reviewed posts in forums and I found that you don't seem to have accepted any reply yet, is your problem solved? As lbendlin said, you could change your credential to see if it works.
    
    Steps to
    
    Go to File/Options and Settings/Data source settings
    
    Select your datasource and click Edit Permissions then Edit Credentials
    
    Select Anonymous and try again
