Gateway Setup Error for Data Source Settings - Credentials not being recognized

Hi,

 

I am running into an error that isn't allowing me to setup a gateway connection and data source settings. Password, username, path all are the same to my work on my Power BI Desktop.

 

This is the Error... Not sure what I am doing wrong to setup automated refreshes. Thanks!

in the connection definition specify that yes, you want to use an unencrypted connection, and yes , you are aware that that is a bad idea.
