The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

When I try to connect to SharePoint Online, I get the error: "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden. (System)”

Action:
I get the following error when connecting to SharePoint Online:

Error Message:
“The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden. (System)”

Solution:
This error typically occurs either due to Microsoft’s retirement of legacy authentication methods (NTLM/Basic) or the retirement of the passive SAML authentication method, related to the legacy WS-Fed and wsignin1.0.   SharePoint Online now requires Modern Authentication (OAuth 2.0 / Microsoft Identity). This change affects connections to SharePoint Online that previously worked with basic credentials.

To use SharePoint Online, you’ll need to switch to our Microsoft Graph Connection, which fully supports Modern Authentication.
