Inserting excel data into an INDESIGN table cell is not updated

I need help with the following query.

I have data from an Excel file (.xlsx) which I need to reflect in my INDESIGN file.

If I carry out the procedure of:

Drop (Ctrl+D) > select the Excel file by selecting “Show import options” > Open

And then I select the range of the cell, checking "unformatted tabbed text"

The same is reflected seamlessly in my indesign file, as are any of the changes that are updated in the excel file.

But my PROBLEM is that I need to embed only that value within a single field of a table in a cell.

When I do it with the same procedures mentioned above, the value is reflected, but not generating a link, then when updating Excel it is no longer updated, nor do I see the link in the link window.

Can someone give me feedback on how to solve this problem to be able to embed the value of an Excel cell inside a table cell already created in an INDESIGN file?

THANK YOU!
