DataSource.Error

Hi Kossi,
You can find the query data by selecting "transform data" from the tool bar, and then advanced editor on the data from web query you have implemented.
However given you are new to it all I suggest you run through the microsoft learn intro courses just to familiarise yourself with the software.

Hi Kossi,
I think you can open the query editor and use the advanced editor to see the M code behind the query. From there you can edit the timeout interval to be longer to give the query time to load.
There is a similar answer here which explains it.

Let me know if not clear enough and I can try and assist further.
Cheers
