In the Shared Dataset tab you can see the source and destination locations for the shared datasets. Note the status is showing Missing Password as these datasets are linked to the AdventureWorks datasource. Entering the account details in the shared data source will fix the missing password in the screenshot below. The same applies to Report Data Sources and Report Data Sets.
