Web Scraping - Get dashboard from a website

Hi, We have a website which shows status of van available in the form of dashboard. Can we show the same dashboard in PowerBI using Web scraping or by any other method?

    You can only scrapy the raw data from the website(e.g.: the value data and data like html element). You can use the built-in web connector to achieve web data source. 

     

    In addtion, if the web page is multiple, I would suggest you refer to blog below:

    Hi v-yuta-msft 

     

    Thank you for your reply.

    I went through the post. It was really helpful.

     

    However, I was looking for showing the webpage as it is in the powerbi report.

    I was able to do this by using HTML Viewer from Custom Visual Marketplace.
