A problem frequently reported by users is the missing option to add an image column when creating a new Dataverse table.

If you experience this problem, the most likely cause is the new table designer that's part of the "Data Workspace" feature.

When clicking the 'New table' button, there are 3 menu items as shown below.

Clicking the 'Create new tables' menu item opens the screen below.

When we add a new table from here, the image data type is missing from the Data Type dropdown when editing the properties of a column (shown below).

When adding a new column using the traditional table designer, the Image data type appears beneath the File submenu as shown below.

An alternative workaround is to save the table that's been created in the "Data workspace" designer and to edit the table afterwards. Editing the table opens the traditional table designer which includes the option to add Image columns.

This limitation of the "Data workspace" designer can be very confusing for new users and hopefully, Microsoft will add full support for all data types in the new designer soon.
