Hi @Anonymous, 

 

Which web page did you want to get data from? Was it public or private? 

 

Please take a look at this sample to see if it helps: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-connect-to-web-by-example

 

Also please run the latest Power BI desktop version 2.79.5768.1082 if possible. 

 

Best Regards,
