How to get data from box/one drive website

Hi all

 

I have an excel file with one tab stored in a box. I need to get the data from the URL of that box that contains the excel file.

 

When I do the get data from the Web option I get the following:

The steps I follow are then:

As seen, the table that contains the columns of the excel never appears.

 

How can I make the table appear using the link? The reason I need to use the link and not get it straight from the folder excel route is because I need other people to refresh the query.

 

Using the excel route would not work since it would be created with my user, therefore I would be the only one able to make updates.

 

I tried the same with one drive and didnt work either, here is a sample.

Thanks for the help, do you know how to make it work with Box?

Thanks!
