You cannot do this, these only work with paginated reports.

Click on the ... menu for your report in the Report Server Portal, then go to Manage, then Data Sources and enter the username/password there.

Thanks for the reply.
I don't want to configure the username and password within the report's data source.

I would like the Report to use the Report Service data source.
