My aim is to visualize the windmill locations at QGIS from Vindbrukskollen's map. To achieve this, right click on the map, select Inspect. I find this link (highlighted in blue, cursor over it):

enter image description here

Copying it here:

https://ext-geodata-applikationer.lansstyrelsen.se/arcgis/rest/services/VBK/lst_vbk_read/MapServer/export?dynamicLayers=%5B%5D&dpi=96&transparent=true&format=png32&bbox=266751.24243930646%2C6410467.740252377%2C551121.8258585681%2C6538509.733104119&bboxSR=3006&imageSR=3006&size=1890%2C851&layers=show%3A-1%2C-1%2C-1&f=image

From the ...arcgis/rest... part, I think I should add this layer to QGIS as an ArcGIS REST Server.

In QGIS, I do Layer -> Add Layer -> Add ArcGIS REST Server Layer -> New and paste the above link into the URL field, with a name Sweden1:

Click OK, then Connect, and I get:

Connection failed: Parsing error

enter image description here

The little windmill symbol did make it into QGIS, just left to Sweden1 text, indicating that I am probably on the right track.

How to solve this parsing error to add Vindbrukskollen's windmill layer to QGIS?

You can access the individual layers if you shorten the URL to:

https://ext-geodata-applikationer.lansstyrelsen.se/arcgis/rest/services/VBK/lst_vbk_read/MapServer/
