Cannot copy gradient from Illustrator 27.5 version to InDesign 18.2.1 version

Hi

I made a logo that contains a gradient and when I import it to indesign it changes the color to a different
gradient, I already tried the solutions through:
community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/cannot-copy-gradient-from-illustrator-to-indesign/td-p/10204522
but without success changing even the color profiles. I realized that this is not just happening with my
logo and it happens with others that I tested (not made by me) and the same thing happens.
In addition to changing the color of the gradient when resizing, parts are lost with the exception
of the type font.

Tanks, Cheers

Correct answer Steve Werner

With all files that have gradient.


In that case, I'll send you instructions for restoring InDesign preferences and caches because I strongly suspect that they might help:

Your title says "copy," but then you say "import". Please clarify as to which you are doing.

Hello
Sorry but due to the volume of work I was only able to respond today. I did the first action on the link you sent me and it solved my problem (see attached image) regarding the gradient. Thank you very much for the help
