Bring in new table using existing Direct Query Connection?

Live Connection to Dataset A, that I switched to Direct Query, so that I could do a Composite Model. 

Now I've added a new table to Dataset A, and want to bring that new table into my report. 

I don't see how to include the new table in my existing Direct Query Connection to Dataset A - am I missing a place in the UI?
