Hello,
I've created a function from a query that fetches the weather forecast from darksy.net API.
Basically, I pass the latitude and longitude as a single parameter to the query and I get a weather forecat.
The parameter is entered as text in the form of "lat,long". Eg: Lisbon is 38.736946,-9.142685
Everything works fine, the data is loaded into Power Query. However, when hitting "Close and Apply" button I get the error:
It seems the URL is adding E2%80%8E before the parameter.
I tried 2 differente APIs (darksy.net and http://api.openweathermap.org) and the problem happens in both.
Why is this? Can anyone help?
Hi @webportal,
I'm not familiar with your local language, could you please provide the error message in English so that we can help further investigate on it?
Best Regards,
Cherry
Hi @webportal,
Please follow the guide in the similar thread to change the code to connect to your data source.
However, if the error still occurs, please use fiddler to monitor what happened during the connection process, and post fiddler trace log here.
Best Regards,
Cherry
