How to scrape data from a web page behind a login?

[paulwestgate]

Hi, I am new to Power BI and still learning. Could someone please help me, I am trying to scrape data from a web page that I need to be logged into  https://www.buzzsprout.com/391717/stats/downloads?days=all

Does Power BI support this, or is it only public URLs that the scraping can work on? I would have thought that this would be a common feature in Power BI, but can't seem to find any solution. Thanks in advance!

Hello @paulwestgate 

This functionality is not supported by PowerBI.

You should look for alternative ways... e.g. a connector, or an API

Thanks for the quick response @themistoklis !

I was hoping that was not the case. I have looked for connectors, but unfortunately, no one has built them. I also asked the website developer if they have an API, just waiting on a response from them.
