Hi Phil,
Thanks for your reply. However I can not seem to attach the pbix file here. Actually if you start a new report and paste my code into the Advance Editor, you will get exactly what I have here.
The website I am wanting to get data is www.realestate.co.nz . At our workplace, we want to get an idea on the housing supply by taking snapshot on the property listings on a daily basis. Once we build up our data history, then we could look into the average asking price or property type on the supply side.
Really new to Power BI, but it's really powerful and I really want to dive into it.
Thanks for the help.
Hi inzaghi1230,
If you upload to a One Drive, or Drop Box you can probably generate a link to share.
