You will have to create the url as a parameter first for it to be directly amended in the report in online version.

API key is for authentication and you can try avoiding it in the url and keep them as data source credentials which will work fine, if it's in the url then you will have to create url as a parameter so that you can update it directly.

Workspace->Datasets->Setting->DataSourceCredentials
