DataFlow - Add Data Source MySQL Issue

I have tried creating a new data flow and our MySQL database, but I keep getting an invalid credentials error.  We have verified the credentials multiple times and testing the same method via Power BI desktop with success.  Is this a known issue with MySQL for the DataFlows system?  What may be a possible remedy?

Could you please make sure that you have configured gateway for your database and you could check if the credential is correct in your gateway and be same withe the credentials in your dataflow:
