Hi All,

Periodically, I receive this error message. I am not sure, if this a Power Query error or a VBA error?

I do suspect that it is PQ error when downloading Json data from a server because it generally happens when I am refreshing a table a PQ table.

To solve the issue, I generally wait 15 minutes, reboot the PC and off we go.

Rather than haulting the operation of the model, is there a way I can trap this error, have the model wait 10 minutes and the try the refresh again, with out my intervention?

Thanks in advance.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Thanks mate. I haven't checke din for a while. Sorry about the late reply.
