Gateway for Web data source?
- 6 years ago
OK I have found the problem.
This query produces the issues:
When I use:
= Web.BrowserContents("https://www.sozialministerium.at/Informationen-zum-Coronavirus/Neuartiges-Coronavirus-(2019-nCov).html")
It requires the gateway and I cannot refresh it unless I have it installed.
As soon as I change it to:
=Web.Contents("https://www.sozialministerium.at/Informationen-zum-Coronavirus/Neuartiges-Coronavirus-(2019-nCov).html")
It allows me to refresh from the service and the gateway is turned off - I do not need a gateway now
Very strange! But it appears that Web.BrowserContents functions like Web.Page
For some web connectors gateway is required, Try to configure it properly and see if it is working or not.
Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!

I am trying to do it without a gateway, I am refresing my dataset 8x per day and I don't want to rely on my computer all the time.
That is why I removed all on-prem sources and also do not use any Web.Page functions, but it is still not working...
First I have to somehow get rid of the gateway in the dataset and then I can see if it still produces an error...
Are there other web functions that are not allowed without a gateway?

I tried to use the one of your web source. It is working for me.
Below is the PQ.
let Source = Csv.Document(Web.Contents("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_time_series/time_series_covid19_confirmed_global.csv"),[Delimiter=",",

gbrunnerbi, You my friend are a legend! I changed my report from using "= Web.BrowserContents" to "= Web.Contents" and the issue I had for months is fixed.
Thanks so much!!!!!
This has to be a big right?
