Dataset settings

The Settings option for Datasets appears to have disappeared, I have a dataset with an expired username/password, but I've got no ability to Edit the dataset to correct it, even though I keep getting notified it's expired and can't refresh.

 

When I click on the dataset, the options are:

Rename

Remove

Schedule Refresh

Refresh Now

Analyze in Excel

Quick Insights

 

If you click "Schedule Refresh" you get to the Settings for the dataset and can edit it, but that's hardly intuitive. Why's the settings button missing?

The DATASET SETTINGS option is only available for DirectQuery connection. However, you can see the Settings option in the New Navigation as following screenshot.
