I'd like to get bond data from the Frankfurt Exchange web. Here is a link to the table and pic from the data I'm interested in: https://www.boerse-frankfurt.de/bond/xs2502401552-plusplus-capital-financial-s-a-r-l-11-22-26/price-...
If I open this link in power query I see the attached view:
If I expand the data column to the end, I can't reach the data in the table present in the web (like closing prices of the bond):
Suggestions how to get the data?

Hi @maasool - It appears that you are using Excel Power Query instead of Power BI Power Query. Unfortunately, there is difference in the capability of the Web.Contents function.

After pasting the URL into the Power BI Web wziard, you are prompted with the following panel.
This is the Excel version:
