I am trying to Pull Data in Excel file saved on my Desktop, from another file saved on Team/SharePoint site.
It creates an error message Details: "Access to the resource is forbidden."

I can connect to any other Excel file and get Data from another Excel file, saved on any other shared Hard Drives, but can not connect to file saved on SharePoint site

Microsoft 365 and Office Excel For business Windows

    How did you get Data from SharePoint?
    If you're using Power Query to create the connection, go to Data- Get Data- Data source Settings:

    Select Edit Permissions...- Change Type to Organization Account and sign in:
