    @ram niwas
    Was the previous connection to this URL successful?

    It's recommended to clear existing permissions to have a check via going to Data > Get Data > Data Source Settings > Global permissions > click “Clear all permissions to remove all permissions”.
    Then try to connect to this web content again.

    I would also suggest you go to File > Options > Data, then tick the box of "From Web (Legacy)" to enable legacy data wizard.
    Then please go to Data > Get Data > Leagcy Wizard > From (Web Leacy), contect to this URL.
    More detailed information, please refer to "Data import and analysis options".

    Any updates, please let me know.
