Attempting to Connect to Snowflake without a Desktop Instance

I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how to connect to Snowflake through PowerBI Service.

I do NOT have an option to use the PowerBI Desktop.

 

I have followed the instructions to connect to Snowflake. 

Under the section titled 'To turn on SSO for a dataset, follow these steps:', I can get through Step 2, but in step 3, where the instructions say to 'Select Data source credentials and sign in' - I do not have an option for this from the website.

 

How do I enable the option for setting Data Source credentials?

Hi @Anonymous 

Is your dataset based on a report using Snowflake connector?

 @v-xiaotang , as stated in my OP, I do not have the option of selecting Data Source credentials when trying to connect.

What settings need to be enabled in order to see Data Source credentials options ?
