Data source xml does not load data ?

Hi there,

 

I want to get the data from the below xml address in PBI. 

https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-hist.xml?

 

What ever I do the import is unsuccessful. 

 

The only thing I get is the following.

What I expect, copy from excel were it works when a connexion is created.

HI @TheBaz_57,

I think you need to find out the underlying data API that is used to get data.
Power bi did not suitable to get data from the URL with redirect or website pages that were pre-processed by scripts or other functions. (these scripts or functions will be blocked by the data connector when getting data due to security reasons)
