# Create a Shared Dataset or Embedded Dataset (Report Builder and SSRS)
2222
Embedded datasets are for use in a single [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion_md](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] report. Shared datasets on a report server can be used by multiple reports, both mobile and paginated. To create a dataset, you need an embedded or shared data source.

To include data in [!INCLUDE[ssRBnoversion](../../includes/ssrbnoversion.md)] and [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] paginated reports, you must first create *data sources* and *datasets*. This topic explains the type of data sources, how to create data sources, and important information related to data source credentials. A data source includes the data source type, connection information, and the type of credentials to use. There are two types of data sources: embedded and shared. An embedded data source is defined in the report and used only by that report. A shared data source is defined independently from a report and can be used by multiple reports. For more information, see [Embedded and Shared Datasets (Report Builder and SSRS)](../../reporting-services/report-data/embedded-and-shared-datasets-report-builder-and-ssrs.md).

Shared data sources are useful when you have data sources that you use often. It is recommended that you use shared data sources as much as possible. They make reports and report access easier to manage, and help to keep reports and the data sources they access more secure. If you need a shared data source, ask your system administrator to create one for you.

These credentials are used to make a data connection from Report Builder to the external data source, or to preview a report that is configured to prompt for credentials. Credentials that you enter in this dialog box are not stored on the report server and are not available for use by other users. Report Builder caches the credentials during the report editing session so that you do not need to enter them every time you run the query or preview the report.
