Hi.
I am trying to make some tables out of a web page in Power Query using dynamic URL as a source of the table.
The URL i want to get info from is:
https://www.proff.no/regnskap/akademika/bergen/bokhandlere/IFK8BWR006K/
The source is designed like this:
https://www.proff.no/
TypeParameter: regnskap
URLparameter: /akademika/bergen/bokhandlere/IFK8BWR006K/
The TypeParameter defines if I want to see roles, accounting data and so on and will be hard coded into the source.
This works fine until I change the URLparameter. (Paste in a URL for another company).
For example:
URLparameter: /experis-as/oslo/rekruttering/IG92BSJ046Z/
Then it seems like Power Query does not get the same HTML-table from the new company, and I get a empty table.
The source is correct but it does not seem to get any data from the web page. When I change back to the orgininal URLparameter, everything is fine.
I there anyone who knows why this is happening?
Is there a M, code who lets me take inn all HTML tables in the source?
Best regards,
Amalie
