    Hi mariag_murddu,

    I test this in my environment, I find that when I connect to web, it will show like below

    When I download the Excel and connect this in powerbi, it will have error in it. I think this is caused by the pivot table in your Excel, when I delete this in Excel, it will work. So I sugges you could delete it in your  google sheet , and test again to see whether it work or not.

    Best Regards,
    Zoe Zhi

    Hi mariag_mureddu,

    You need to check whether you have permission to access the sheet. In addition, when you need to google sheet, you need to change URL as below

    change

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/google-sheet-guid/edit?usp=sharing

    to 

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/google-sheet-guid/export?format=xlsx&id=google-sheet-guid

    You could refer to How to connect google sheet with power bi?  for details.
