Getting 404 error on web.contents request

Hi,

 

I am looking at bringing the status of a sight back e.g. 200,404 etc.

 

However the following code works on some sites but not others :

 

let
Source = Web.Contents("https://www.google.com/shopping/ratings/account/metrics?q=hgdstye3.com&c=GB&v=2", [ManualStatusHandling={404}]),
GetMetadata = Value.Metadata(Source)[Response.Status]
in
GetMetadata

 

The above shows 200 but it should be 404

 

Any ideas ?

 

Thank you in advance

I have sorted the problem by adding IsRetry into the code so I do not get the cached value
