Visio: import an excel table stored in an external website
I would like to use a feature which is available in Excel. In Excel, you can import data from another excel workbook stored on a website. Excel manages credentials and everything needed for connecting to the website.
I was wondering if a similar feature exists in Visio. So far when I try to import an excel file located on a website in a classical way, it just returns an error.
Does someone know if such feature exists (or not)?

Which version of Excel? For those who don't know about it (including me), which menu gets you to this feature?

Latest version of excel (2016 I think). You go to Data -> From Web, you enter the URL and if the website requires credential, you can enter them and even choose the authentication type (Organization, Anonymous) etc...

Now I see it, Excel 2010 has this as well. Visio cannot do this.
