Easier than ever to get data from the web into Power BI - PW518
The Power BI team has done it again and a new Power BI Desktop Update is here, to be precise, the May 2018 Power BI Desktop Update is here, yey!!!
It is Power Week 518!!!
In today's video, I will go through my second favourite functionality of all: The new web connector
With this month’s release, we’re dramatically enhancing this connector by allowing any HTML data, not just tables, to be extracted. To do so, you can provide a few samples for the data that you want to extract, and Power Query will apply smart detection algorithms on top of the HTML page content to identify the entire set of rows to generate.
To try out this feature you need to enable it under the Preview Features tab in the Options dialog.
