Use the OData connector with the report server API.
Add your report server URL to this in the two places marked:
let
Source = OData.Feed("https://<YOUR URL>/pbireports/api/v2.0/PowerBIReports", null, [Implementation="2.0"]),
#"Expanded DataSources" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Source, "DataSources", {"Id", "ModifiedBy", "ModifiedDate", "ConnectionString", "DataModelDataSource"}, {"DataSources.Id", "DataSources.ModifiedBy", "DataSources.ModifiedDate", "DataSources.ConnectionString", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource"}),
#"Expanded DataSources.DataModelDataSource" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded DataSources", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource", {"Type", "Kind", "AuthType", "Username", "ModelConnectionName"}, {"DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Type", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Kind", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource.AuthType", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Username", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource.ModelConnectionName"}),
#"Added Conditional Column" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded DataSources.DataModelDataSource", "DS.Connection_String", each if [DataSources.ConnectionString] = null then "No Data Source" else [DataSources.ConnectionString]),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Conditional Column",{"CacheRefreshPlans", "AccessToken", "Roles", "ContentType", "Content", "ParentFolder", "Properties", "Comments", "AlertSubscriptions", "AllowedActions", "Policies", "DependentItems","Id", "ParentFolderId", "DataSources.Id", "DataSources.DataModelDataSource.ModelConnectionName"}),
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"DataSources.ConnectionString", "DS.ConnectionString"}, {"DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Type", "DS.Type"}, {"DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Kind", "DS.Kind"}, {"DataSources.DataModelDataSource.AuthType", "DS.AuthType"}, {"DataSources.DataModelDataSource.Username", "DS.Username"}, {"DataSources.ModifiedBy", "DS.ModifiedBy"}, {"DataSources.ModifiedDate", "DS.ModifiedDate"}, {"Name", "Report"}, {"Path", "Report Path"}}),
#"Add Report URL" = Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns", "Report URL", each "https://<YOUR URL>/PBIReports/powerbi" & [Report Path] & "?rs:embed=true")
in
#"Add Report URL"

Have a look at those links
List connection strings of all SSRS Shared Datasources
decipher ReportServer.DataSource.ConnectionString
Show connection string in the report?
