Hi all!
I think the following task should be solved with some kind of loop:
All three Webadresses are stored in Table and the entire example file is here
The "programming" above works fine but, is there a better way in M to solve this problem then my simple approach above? Some kind of Loop, Recursion or stuff like that?
Thanks a lot! Michael

Hello, @Rygar put your names and values into table and ⬇️
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45W8snMS0lV0lHKKCkpKLbS1y8vL9dLyk8tKk7VS0nVT8wuyUzN0wcr0g3wcdZ1BAnoe7oaGBgEW0YGm5sZKcXqRCs5ZhYp+GQWlmYSNguoVBeqFGqaWxDQNANDIwMDc2OIabmpJanZBA0Cq4KaERpsYGxoCDTFwMBEKTYWAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Name = _t, Value = _t]),
content = Table.TransformColumns(Source, {"Value", each Web.Page(Web.Contents(_)){1}[Data]{0}[Column2]})

Thank you AlienSX, this solution is so elegant and shows its better not to stuck in "loop-thinking"!
For everyone interested, my final solution with an additional column with share-names looks like this:
let
Source = URL,
#"Duplizierte Spalte" = Table.DuplicateColumn(Source, "URL", "URL_Value"),
Values=Table.TransformColumns(#"Duplizierte Spalte", {"URL", each Web.Page(Web.Contents(_)){2}[Caption]}),
Names=Table.TransformColumns(Values, {"URL_Value", each Web.Page(Web.Contents(_)){1}[Data]{0}[Column2]})
in
Names
Result as Table
