Auto number type not listed

Posted on by quantrium-anant

Hello,

 

I am relatively new to Power Platform.

I want to create a column with the auto number field. I have seen various docs using this data type.

 

I need the same in my use case, but the UI doesn't give me an option. Attached is a screenshot of the same.

Microsoft's doc itself uses another UI completely- Link.

 

Please let me know if there is a solution/way to use the Auto-number field even now.

    Yes, I am using the maker portal I think (https://make.powerapps.com/ ).

     

    Will table type matter? I started with creating a new table and wanting to add Auto-number Column there. The screenshot in question is from there.

    Ok, I'll suggest create your table, save and publish it and now open it for edit and add an autonumber column.
