Once the dataset has been deployed to the service go to 'Settings' then got to 'Data Source Settings' click on 'Edit Credentials'   Then click on the 'Sign In' button that will open a new window and you will be prompted to sign into your AAD account, which should prompted to sign in using two-factor authentication. The credentails will be stored in service if successfully logged in.
