# Add Augmentations to Images

Add augmentation steps when creating a dataset version to generate additional training images.

To add augmentations, [create a new dataset version](/datasets/versions/dataset-versions/create-a-dataset-version.md).

On Step 4 of the process, select the option to "Add Augmentation Step".
