Data source from web page with drop-down slicers?
Hey guys,
I am trying out new things and wanted to find out, if it is possible to gather large amounts of data from a website.
The problem is that the list of data is sorted and can be accessed by using built in slicers.
Here is a similar source of the data that I am talking about: link
Basically, you can choose only 1 parameter from each drop-down.
Is there a way to access all of the data all at once?
I have looked for answers, but have found nothing that would help me!
Hope that there is an answer to my question.

Jaunkalns,
You can try to connect to NFL API in "Get data->web" entry of Power BI Desktop and check if you can get all data at once.
There are some examples for your reference.
