No Options for Creating a Dataset

I have set up a gateway to allow PowerBI to communicate with my on-premise Analysis Services data source.  The gateway status indicates it is online and the data source accessed through the gateway also appears to be online.  However, when I go to Settings => Datasets, there are no options available.  As far as I can tell, it appears that everything up to this point is configured correctly, but there are no options to select for creating the dataset.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You create datasets in workspaces, not where you are showing above. The best way to create a dataset is to use Power BI Desktop to connect do the same datasource in the gateway, then publish it to a workspace.

 

Then in the dataset settings, you connect it to the gateway so it can refresh.
