iPad PowerPoint presentation with linked Excel data

I have a PowerPoint presentation with linked Excel data. It updates perfectly when opening the PowerPoint on my desktop. I transferred the files to my iPad and relinked the data by pasting link....the same way as I had done on the desktop. But the iPad app will not update data automatically and I cannot find a way to force the update. Any ideas? Can it be done in the iPad PowerPoint App?

    Excel linking uses OLE, a Windows-only technology. Microsoft does done a lite version to macOS, but not for any other platform.
