Error when refreshing Power BI Desktop

ODBC: ERROR [HY000] HTTP status code: 403 Received error: Code: 516. DB::Exception: reem: Authentication failed: password is incorrect or there is no user with such name. (AUTHENTICATION_FAILED) (version 22.1.3.7 (official build))

 

This error appears to me when I try to refresh data on Power BI desktop.

I'm connecting my Power BI to clickhouse through port forwarding in Visual Studio. 

My collegue connecting to the same connection with same user name and password; she doesn't have the same error I have; everything is working fine with her.

In the desktop, there are Permission settings. In the desktop, try going to the permission and Clear permission for this pbix file. close and save, then re-open and try the credentials.

It worked for me thank you !
