 These are commonly used options. Cloud-specific keys (for example `region`, `endpoint`, `service_account`, and Azure credential keys) are backend-dependent and can be provided in `storage_options` as needed.

+#### New table configuration
+
+These options control the Lance file format and features used when creating new tables. Pass them via `storage_options` at connection or table level.
+
+| Key | Values | Default | Description |
+| :-- | :-- | :-- | :-- |
+| `new_table_data_storage_version` | `legacy`, `stable` | `stable` | Lance file format version for new tables. Use `legacy` for backward compatibility with older clients, or `stable` for the current format with better performance. |
+| `new_table_enable_v2_manifest_paths` | `true`, `false` | `false` | Use v2 manifest path naming. Requires LanceDB >= 0.10.0 to read. |
+| `new_table_enable_stable_row_ids` | `true`, `false` | `false` | Keep row IDs stable across compaction, delete, and merge operations. |
