Schedule refresh for web content report

Hi,

 

I was building a report on Power BI desktop which I got the data source as Web -> fill in the URL of the website I want to extract data from -> "Add table using example" -> fill in the data values I want to extract into a table. I was able to create a report from this and pulished to Power BI Service. However, when I looked at the dataset to schedule refresh, I got the following error:

I am not sure how to fix this because I am still able to refresh in Power BI Desktop but only encounter the error in Power BI Service. Please help! Thank you!

Hi @evienguyen ,

 

According to the information you provided, the issue should be caused by the function Web.BrowserContents. On my side, the official document says that this function is unavailable because it requires .NET 4.5.

Please replace it and try again. Maybe this post could help you:
