Using the __PowerAppsId__ via the ExcelOnline Connector

Hi team,
I am building an App that feeds data back into an excel spreadsheet. As part of the beginning I am checking if for a selected Date & Cell (team) a corresponding entry is already existing. If yes I want to give the user the option to update that very entry. Now I manage to pull that existing entry from excel and my Global variables show that it picks up the __PowerAppsId_ at the very beginning. However the Record does not show the column __PowerAppsId__ and I cannot call it.
The result is, that a new record is created instead of the existing record being updated.
 
I would highly appreciate any guidance on this.
 
May thanks!
