I created an image carousel component that can move using the AI component.  
However, I don’t understand how to place the image data.  
How should it be done to make the component work?  
In the Glide table, I used ‘Make Array,’ but it didn’t work.

Try to use a joined list column for the images’ url and put that column in the ai component telling that it is separated by “whatever you chose”.

Is there a reason you don’t use the native image component for this? You can use an array of images for it.

The images areay is supported by AI component data fields?

Likely because they want extra features, like the transition

I mean if you use a native image component and point it to an array of images/multiple images column, it is a carousel already.

Yes, but I agree with the fact that AI component gives more possibilities for carousel.

I wish that we could decide where to position the arrows. Currently they lay over the image centered vertically and they can get in the way of the images. Having the option to put the arrows elsewhere, following best practices of course, would be nice.
