MacTracker says that iMac17,1 is an iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015).
Target Display Mode went away when the first 27" 5K iMac came out in Late 2014. It never returned, so your iMac doesn't support it. Apple also later added restrictions such that no Mac released after 2019, or that is running any version of macOS later than Catalina, supports using any Mac as a Target Display. That would rule out using your 2013 Mac Pro with an older, non-Retina iMac running in Target Display Mode unless you were willing to downgrade the Mac Pro to Catalina or earlier (not recommended).
