Hey @andymedley !

When connecting an image element to a dataset, you should be given the option to connect the alt, tooltip and link as well.

The best way to do this is to create another column in your database called “Alt” for example. Then add the alt text there and finally connect it to the image element.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions
