Hi,  @Shinebayar 

If you can access the M code in Advanced Editor, you can try follow steps:

  1. Create a new query that points to your current SharePoint excel file (web connector) in Power BI Desktop.If you still couldn't authenticate with the credentials provided", please recheck  your credentials and Authentication method

  2. Copy the source code(Source line ,Table line ,Change type ) of the new query in Advanced Editor.
  3. Go to your existing query of Excel and replace the part of source code in the Advanced Editor with copied code in Step 2.
