Google Sheets

[Anonymous]

Hi, when I connect to power bi to google sheets I get "We didn't find any tables on this web page". Do you know how to fix this error?

Hi mariag_mureddu,

You need to check whether you have permission to access the sheet. In addition, when you need to google sheet, you need to change URL as below

change

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/google-sheet-guid/edit?usp=sharing

to 

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/google-sheet-guid/export?format=xlsx&id=google-sheet-guid

You could refer to How to connect google sheet with power bi?  for details.

Hi mariag_mureddu,

You need to make sure you could view the table data when use the shared Gollgle sheet link in browser or you need to make sure you have permission to read it. In addition, you could create a new google sheet to test this problem to see whether it work or not. By the way, if there is no sensitive data in google sheet, you also could try to share this with me to test it.

Please do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Thanks for your understanding and support.

Hi,

I created a test file published on the web that doesn't work either. You can try with it:

Hi mariag_mureddu,

I can't open your link beacuse I don't have permission to access this. You could view my above link, this is a shared link. You need to click share button in google sheet, give permission to users, and copy the shared link , use this in PowerBI and change link as my previous reply.

Hi mariag_murddu,

I test this in my environment, I find that when I connect to web, it will show like below

When I download the Excel and connect this in powerbi, it will have error in it. I think this is caused by the pivot table in your Excel, when I delete this in Excel, it will work. So I sugges you could delete it in your  google sheet , and test again to see whether it work or not.
