importing spreadsheet into MySQL Workbench (no replies)

I have installed the following successfully in my computer form MySQL Installer:
MySQL Workbench 6.3, MySQL Shell, MySQL Command Line client, MySQL Server, Connector/OBDC, Connector/C++, Connector/J, Connector/NET, MySQL Utilities, MySQL Notifier.

I have an excel spreadsheet in Excel 2016. I have MySql Workbench open as well as the spreadsheet. After searching on the web, I came to this website https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-for-excel/en/mysql-for-excel-export.html. It says under the Data tab, there is 'MySQL for Excel' button which leads you to a 'Open a MySQL Connection'. I don't see either of these when I click Data tab in Excel. If I right click to Customize this Ribbon and search for this button, I still do not see it. What am I doing wrong and are there any other ways to import the excel file into MySQL Workbench? Please help!
