Get a simple cell from another worksheet in OneDrive

Hello, I am struggling to make it work.

I have a sheet opened, as a summary of other sheets, and I need to get exactly one cell of each worksheet.

This data is in another location, but also in the same OneDrive directory, and I want to make it available for other people.
I've tried https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Connect-to-another-workbook-3a557ddb-70f3-400b-b48c-0c86ce62b4f5?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

But I see it is only importing a whole sheet into a new sheet in my opened sheet. I don't want that.

 

Before me, it was working via the formula ='https://d.docs.live.net/........./[othersheet.xlsx]001'!$E$23 because that is what I see in every formula. But now is complaining, and I don't know why. I've tried all the steps and modified the formula in order to connect, without success.

Thank you

    Sergio,

     

    I think that the better solution is what described in the support article!

    You aren't bound to upload data into a new worksheet, you can load them into an existing one as shown in the below screenshot.
