Web.Contents error : Access to the resource is forbidden

Hi Anonymous ,

I've done some testing and found that there may be a setting on the site itself that prevents you from connecting to the site directly via the Web connection method or an M code such as Web.Contents to access the content therein.
I'm trying to connect directly to the Home page of the site using the Web Connector directly:

But still the same error:

If you can't even connect to the Home page, chances are that the site has disabled certain connectivity features.
If you need Power Query to connect to some of these files, you may need to download the file from the site first, and then use File.Contents to connect to the file you downloaded locally:

Best Regards,
Dino Tao
