Hi Everyone,
I am in need of some help connecting to a web source that I can have updated every quarter.
I can establish a web query to the following link: https://data.bls.gov/cew/apps/table_maker/v4/table_maker.htm#type=3&year=2022&qtr=2&own=5&ind=1011&s...
, and it is able to analyze the chart in HTML. My issue is that it only displays 75 rows and I need it to display the full table. There is no pagination in the link. See the screenshot below:
Is there any htlm I can write so that Power Query understands to retrieve the FULL table and not the first 75 rows of data?
Thank you!
Happy Holidays!

Hi @Anonymous ,
I tried to find a way to change the row display settings in URL itself, but did not manage to do so...
Other people tried to use an API:

And here they used the URL in combination with a function:

I saw, however, if you press the Download Source Data button, you can get the underlaying source data in the csv format. This one you can call directly from the URL, too. Could this be something for you?
