Web.Contents() API call

Hi Team,

 

when refreshing a query from Power BI Desktop using a Web.Contents() API call, we see this call executing multiple times on the HTTP server side. how to fix this?

Bit hard to tell without seeing more information.

I would first check this function:

Is this function being referenced? Check this video:

Otherwise, please can you provide more info on how the API is used, or possible share some code example.

 

Thanks,

Appreciate your Kudos

We tried checking the function, it didnt helped the issue situation.

Trying something within the java function itself and see if that is fixing it.

 

Thanks,
