    No additional Changed Type steps were automatically added in the linked table.

olimilo, can you share the M code and remove any sensitive information from the code? I think something else is going on here. I need to look at the steps to understand the problem. From screenshot, I can see that when you are adding a custom column, you have given the data type as text, which means it doesn't need an extra change type step.
