Power BI Refresh Failure : Invalid Snowflake Credentials

Hi All
I am facing a weird issue in Power BI Service, 

The backend source is Snowflake . I am getting the below error: 
Data source error: The credentials provided for the Snowflake source are invalid. . The exception was raised by the IDataReader interface. Please review the error message and provider documentation for further information and corrective action.

Can I get some help on this??
 I am able to connect in desktop ans I also i checked in snowflake as well. Everything seems fine.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Can you please check with your snowflake administrator if it is allowed external connections from IP addresses as it appears it possibly might be blocked on the snowflake instance?

Nothing issue at snowflake side. Looks like something is failing in Power BI side

Do you have any more details on the error message. Can you see the query getting to your Snowflake instance?
