I also got around it by doing it in Desktop.
Then in Service creating a blank query and pasting the M Code into this query. Then it worked
my credentials are fine.
When I log in Via Desktop with the Sharepoint Folder I get no issues.
When I do the same thing in Service I get the error

Hello Debbie E,
I think i'm having the same issue of remote server returning an error.
I was already pasting the advanced editor in my dataflow advanced editor and over there it works i can see and transform the data in the Query of the dataFlow, then when i close de dataflow and set the refresh, the refresh last something like 40min and fail for this message: remote server returning error
