how do you return to the panel where a model's security is set with a userid?

Hi, whenever i plumb a model to a connection for the first time, i have no problem getting and setting info in the panel where the impersonated userid is set along with skip etc.  But afterward i find it impossible to return there to set a different id.  I'll try all the confusing paths once more and post proof here either way.

@db042190 My bad. Go to the gear icon and then Manage connections and gateways. Find the connection and edit the settings.

@db042190 If I understand correctly, you need to go to File | Options and settings | Data source settings. Find your connection and click Edit Permissions. Then for Credentials, click Edit.
