How to setup API credentials on Power BI Service to refresh a Dataset if there is no API option?

I just made a small dataset that uses an API call to populate a table. I provided the credentials on power bi desktop and it works fine. Now that I want to refresh it on Power BI Service, its asking for the API credentials again. The problem is that there is no such a option like "API Connection" on Power BI Service as we have on Power BI Desktop, so I don't know where to put the API NAME and the API KEY. How should I do that?

    Hi tfraletti 

     

    You should be able to go into the dataset settings, then data source credentials and put them in there?
