Extracting Data from a protected website
Hi Harpreet1405_12 ,
First, for the connection type, are you using Web? I am assuming so, but just confirming.
Second, based on your screenshot, I don't think that a URL will do the trick unless you have the full URL. This appears to be an embedded app and the output is based on the options that are selected. So, I don't think the url that we see in the screenshot will be the right URL. I am thinking that you would have to review the embedded bit and find the documentation for that program to determine if you can recreate the option selections in a URL. In my experience, it is easier to recreate the report in Power BI from the original data source than to try and get dynamic output from that report. Or, if you want a specific report that this is producing - can you have it automatically export it to a folder location or an email and then use that output?
