Hello,
I tried to import tables from a web site and it doesn't work.
So i tried with another website but now i'm just able to see the tables from the first website (which doesn't work).
The tables never up date, i don't know why.
Can you help me please ?
I do the same things as the guide but it doesn't work.
I click on import data from web, copy/past the url.
I tried with a lot of web site but i always have the following tables :
I never have other table, so i can take new data.
I use the most recent version of power bi desktop.
I just install it, so i don't know where i can the the code as you send it.
The problem is not only for the web site.
No matter the web site that i try to import, i always have the same table in the navigator. There is no update.
May be there is a problem with my settings ?
you can try to follow up some of following guides

The source URL is the following : Démographie de la France — Wikipédia (wikipedia.org)
But i tried with many sources and it don't work too...
With this code it worked for me without any issues.
let
Source = Web.BrowserContents("https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9mographie_de_la_France"),
#"Extracted Table From Html" = Html.Table(Source, {{"Column1", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(1)"}, {"Column2", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(2)"}, {"Column3", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(3)"}, {"Column4", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(4)"}, {"Column5", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(5)"}, {"Column6", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(6)"}, {"Column7", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(7)"}, {"Column8", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(8)"}, {"Column9", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(9)"}, {"Column10", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(10)"}, {"Column11", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(11)"}, {"Column12", "TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR > :nth-child(12)"}}, [RowSelector="TABLE.wikitable:nth-child(31) > * > TR"]),
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Extracted Table From Html", [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"", Int64.Type}, {"Population (1er janvier)", type text}, {"Naissances", type text}, {"Décès", type text}, {"Accroissement naturel", type text}, {"Taux de natalité (pour 1000)", type text}, {"Taux de mortalité (pour 1000)", type text}, {"Accroissement naturel (pour 1000)", type text}, {"Taux de fécondité[Note 1]", type text}, {"Taux de mortalité infantile (pour 1000 naissances)", type text}, {"Espérance de vie (hommes)", type text}, {"Espérance de vie (femmes)", type text}}),
