    1. Are you referring to iCloud Drive? If so, open an app like Pages on your iPhone, press the + button at the top left corner of the screen and select "iCloud Drive", but you will still need the appropriate app to open the file you want to.
    2. Documents and Data has been replaced by iCloud Drive in iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite. You should find iCloud Drive instead of that option.

    Thanks for your answer. The iCloud menu on my iMac is there one like this on my iPhone? I'm saving excel files under Pages. Now I want to access these files via my iPhone.

    In that case, follow the steps of my first comment.

     

    If you have saved Excel files under Pages I suppose they have got the Pages format, so you need Pages on the iPhone in order to open them. If you did not use Pages to save them, Numbers is the app to use. Both apps have an iCloud Drive window similar to the one you can find on a Mac, which you can open by following the steps of my first reply.
