csv on web not resolving to csv

I am attempting to load the following csv into a PBI report:

https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/blob/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_time_series/...

I am expecting the csv itself to load. Instead, all of the HTML code is loading in. How can I resolve this?

This an attachment in current web page, not the table data in current web page, so you could not get it by current web page url.

for this case, you need hit F12 to open the Developer Tools, then get correct url as below:

I think I just answered my own question. I changed the path to:

https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/raw/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_time_series/t...

This path loads correctly. But, I still don't know why my first path didn't load.
