Sadly, Apple removed the "target display mode" starting with the late 2014 iMac.

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) and later iMac models can't be used as Target Display Mode displays.​

You could do screen sharing. Certainly not the same as a directly connected display but it's not bad over gigabit ethernet. I use it with my 2014 Mini iTunes server.
