    Hi, Anonymous 

    Did you follow the suggestion in this case to set the timeout for the web data source?

    https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Query-Timeout-on-update/m-p/53459

    According to my research, it seems that the error occurs in your “Web.BrowserContents” function because the solution, in that case, uses the “Web.Page” and “Web.content” to link to the web data source, you can also change the M code in your advanced editor to follow the solution and check if it can work.

     

    More info about these three accessing web data function in M language:

    Web.BrowserContents

    Web.Contents

    Web.Page
