web.browsercontents and html.table not working and not loading entire table

[reynaldo_malave]

Hi Devs, 

I am trying to get a httml table out of the following address "https://e.infogram.com/81277d3a-5813-46f7-a270-79d1768a70b2" at first i got a table which powerquery returned using html.table with 100 rows out of 346 but now it just returns the html code. 

I can see the table in the code near the end under "data": but i just dont know how to extract it.

Thanks in advance,

Reynaldo

you are right, the format of the HTML has changed.  The data is now in <table class="igc-table __fixed __dynamic"> and it looks like the entire HTML page is generated on the fly. Use a web traffic monitor to see if you can intercept or emulate the download button.

Or - ask the data source owner if they can provide a user friendly API.

@lbendlin Thanks for your time! i will be asking

@lbendlin  Thanks this one was far beyond my skillset. Any documentation I can read to get a hold of what you just did with variable j.

Once again thank you

The data is actually embedded in a javascript script, so you need to extract that part and then interpret as rows.

let
Source = Web.BrowserContents("https://e.infogram.com/81277d3a-5813-46f7-a270-79d1768a70b2"),
d = Text.PositionOf(Source,"data"":[[["),
e = Text.PositionOf(Source,"]]]"),
j = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Text.Range(Source,d+7,e-d-5))),
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(j, [PromoteAllScalars=true])
in
#"Promoted Headers"

@lbendlin sorry to write you again. But now I  cant find the table within the source. I mean data[[[]]] is empty. It worked fine when I first load it but then it asked me for a security check up (public, anonimous, etc..) for connecting to the website and now source is just plain empty. Any ideas?
