A mid 2014 iMac can be upgraded to the latest version of Catalina 10.15.7 or to Big Sur macOS 11 but no later. See: How to download and install macOS - Apple Support

Be aware that if you upgrade to Catalina 10.15 or later you will also need to update any non-Apple 32-bit apps. See: https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/
