I am trying to import data from the new UNESCO data platform: UIS Statistics (unesco.org)
I want an online connection, and for that they only offer SDMX:
I've tried several approaches and I get to see the data schema, but I haven't managed to get the data.
I found these two workarounds but I am not sure it's the same case because the OED also offers the Developer API export:

Any help would be much appreciated!

You have to expand the folder in order for being able to select the dataset:

Hi @Anonymous ,
It depends on your dataset, you need to expand the table to extract the corresponding data in power query.

Hello @Anonymous ,
yes, that's due to the format itself. It's basically a multidimensional format, so you have to parse it out manually.

Thanks @ImkeF, but I still get to a step where the data seems to be splitted in multiple tables:
