Hi,
This is happening due to the locale.
When I click the link - Excel Services REST API Examples , it takes me to below URL:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/microsoft-365/blog/2009/11/04/simple-access-to-spreadsheet-data-using-the-excel-services-2010-rest-api/

Notice en-in in the URL.
However, it works with en-US. In short, for non-US locale it seems to be breaking.
