Anonymous I have worked on your issue and it's solved. I have tested the solution on Power BI Service and the code works perfectly fine. The data is getting refreshed in Power BI Service.
Here is my M-Code solution:let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://insyncsolutions.atlassian.net",
[RelativePath="/rest/api/3/search",Query=[q="jql=project in('BI')"],
Headers=[Authorization="Basic " & Credentials]])),
totrecords = Source[total],
CurrentstartAtList = List.Generate(()=>0, each _ < totrecords, each _ +100),
//a= List.Transform(CurrentstartAtList, each """" & Text.From(_) & """"),
data = List.Transform(CurrentstartAtList, each Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://insyncsolutions.atlassian.net",
[RelativePath="/rest/api/3/search",
Query=[maxResults="100",startAt=Text.From(_),jql="project in('BI')"],
Headers=[Authorization="Basic " & Credentials]]))),
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(data, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
#"Expanded Column1" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Converted to Table", "Column1", {"expand", "startAt", "maxResults", "total", "issues"}, {"Column1.expand", "Column1.startAt", "Column1.maxResults", "Column1.total", "Column1.issues"}),
#"Expanded Column1.issues" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Expanded Column1", "Column1.issues"),
#"Expanded Column1.issues1" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded Column1.issues", "Column1.issues", {"id", "key", "fields"}, {"id", "key", "fields"}),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Expanded Column1.issues1",{"Column1.expand", "Column1.startAt", "Column1.maxResults", "Column1.total"}),
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Columns", each ([id] <> null))
in
#"Filtered Rows"Power BI Service Data Refresh Success:

ghoshabhijeet - Huh, that's interesting. I know that ImkeF has done similar things looping through websites and I don't remember that error coming up. You could check the Issues forum here:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
And if it is not there, then you could post it.
If you have Pro account you could try to open a support ticket. If you have a Pro account it is free. Go to https://support.powerbi.com. Scroll down and click "CREATE SUPPORT TICKET".

ImkeF Thanks for sharing the links. The blogpost did help, though the way to put it in Power Query was a bit tricky.
