dynamic data sources aren't refreshed in the Power BI service

I am using this in a query

 

= let
ParameterDate = Date.ToText(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()), "yyyyMMdd"),
UrlTemplate = "https://www.abcd.com/content/cdr/html/{date}_dam_spp.html",
Url = Text.Replace(apiUrlTemplate, "{date}", ParameterDate),
response = Web.Contents(apiUrl),
source = Text.FromBinary(response)
in
source

 

But power Bi service gives this error
