Dear @MFelix,

thank you for your help. There are indeed some online guides, for example, I found this link much more helpful http://radacad.com/get-started-with-power-query-movies-data-mash-up

 

But all these guides are using the same link which is the 2op250. The link I am using is the top1000, and I just don't understand why I can not fetch the data the way they did in all this tutorials
