Hi ,
I am trying to "get data", by connecting to the web - the below URL,
https://www.google.com/finance/historical?q=NASDAQ%3AGOOG&ei=pDEQWImbBIm4U5zLj8gO
I am receiving the error: unable to connect, details: the server or proxy wasn't found
Any ideas how to resolve this?
I got this message while using formula: Web.Page( Web.Contents( "www.someURL.com" ) ) .
Solution was to use this combo, that is, to add "Text.FromBinary" wrapper:
Web.Page( Text.FromBinary( Web.Contents( "www.someURL.com") ) )
Hi @vrossouw,
I am also able to connect to your web URL using Anonymous authentication in Power BI Desktop. In addition to other post, you can determine if you have a proxy on your network according to the discussion in this similar thread :How do I know what proxy server I'm using?
Also make sure that you disable antivirus software on your machine.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
Hi
Thank you, will have a look.
I can connect to that URL from PBI Desktop just fine per below screenshot. Maybe you have a network proxy or filtering issue - talk to your network team? Can you access it in your browser?
