Add Images to Navicat Table: BLOB Guide

Navicat is a database management tool mainly used to connect different types of databases, execute SQL queries, and manage databases. Navicat does not support directly adding images to tables. If you need to store images in the database, they are typically stored as binary data in a field of the table.

To add an image in Navicat, you can follow the steps below:

1. Create a new table with a field for storing images. The data type for this field should be either BLOB (Binary Large Object) or LONGBLOB (Long Binary Large Object).
2. Use Navicat’s import function to load image files into a table. During the import process, select the file containing the image data and map it to the corresponding field in the table.
3. By executing SQL queries or using Navicat’s graphical interface, one can view and manage image data stored in tables.

Please note that storing a large amount of image data may cause a decrease in the performance of the database. Therefore, it is recommended to only store images in the database when necessary. In actual development, images are typically stored in the file system, while the database stores the path or other information related to the images.
