When needing to change SQL server details and you are connecting to the SQL database via an On-premises Data Gateway, the best way I have found to do this is:

1. Download the dataset from Power BI online as a .pbix file.
2. Open the file in Power BI desktop.
3. Go to File > Options and settings > Data source settings.
4. Ensure that 'Data sources in current file' is selected, choose the data source the needs to be changed, then click Change Source.
5. Update the server and database name as required and click OK.
6. Click Edit Permissions and enter the relevant credentials. Click Save and OK.
7. Close the Data source settings window.
8. You will be prompted that there are pending changes. Click Apply changes.
9. Click Publish. You will be prompted to save. Click Save.
10. Choose the Power BI workspace that your data source is in.
11. You will be prompted to replace the dataset. Click Replace.

The changes will be published to Power BI online. You may need to re-map the data source in Gateway connections.
