Web Connection with Credentials

Hello guys,

I´m trying to connect to a web page with credentials, the only thing is that to access the web page I need 3 values, and Power BI Desktop (Get data from a Web) only gives you two values.

How can I connect Power BI Desktop to this web page using the three values?


Website Characters:
Username:

Account:

Password:

 

Power BI Web Connector:
Username:

Password:


Thanks for your help!

Power bi cannot just get data from any secured website. The web connector do not pass the username and password to the web to fetch data. As the workaround, if the website expose the REST API, you could use the api method.

If you access the web page through a browser by inserting all three fields, what does the resulting url look like? Is the account name written in the url?
