Hi Experts,
I am trying to pull data from Marklogic database in Power Bi desktop using REST API, but it is failing with below error:
"Web.content failed to get content, 500 internal server error"
I am trying same URL in browser and it is successfully returning result in 7 minutes.
Can anyone please advise what I am missing here?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hey @Anonymous ,
maybe using the Timeout can be helpful:
something =
Web.Contents(
URL,
[Timeout=#duration(0,0,5,0)]
)
The above snippet asks Power BI not to timeout before 5 minutes, you might consider to switch 5 to 10.
Sometimes it's also helpful to turn off "Parallel loading of tables" in the options dialog:
File --> Options and settings --> Options --> Current file --> Data loading
Hopefully, this provides some new ideas to tackle your challenge.
Regards,
Tom

Hi Tom,
I turned off the Parallel query processing and it worked like a charm. Thank you so much for your help 🙂
