I bought a new lens for my Sony a7RV. It is an FE 35mm GM 1.4.

I see that it is a supported lens but cannot find a way to add it so I don't have to manually click the correction for every photo.

I have attached before and after clicking manually.

Here's more detail on Johan's recommendation. If you get stuck at any one step, be very specific about which step and what you're seeing or not seeing at that step:

1. Select one of the photos with the lens in Develop.

2. In the Lens Corrections panel, check Enable Profile Corrections.

3. In the Presets panel on the left, click + > Create Preset. Check just the preset setting Enable Profile Corrections and save the preset with the name "Enable Lens Corrections".

Then do one of these steps (but not both):

4A. In the Import window's right column, set Apply During Import > Develop Settings > User Presets > Enable Lens Corrections. With this method, when you click Reset in Develop, you'll lose the setting of Enable Profile Corrections.

4B. Set the raw defaults for all cameras or the specific camera to apply that preset, as described in the help article Johan linked to:

With this approach, if you click Reset in Develop, the setting of Enable Profile Corrections will be retained.

Still hoping for an answer. It can't be that hard. I have several lenses (both Canon and Sony) that automatically are detected, and thus, the lens corrections happen automtically. This is what I want to happen with my new Sony lens.

Thank you. I will give this a try.

Create a preset with these checkboxes enabled. Then either use this preset (with any other settings you always want) as camera default, or apply the preset on import in the import dialog.

Can you be specific. I do not understand what this suggests to do. Screenshots would help. Many of my other lenses automatically were a part of this. And they are detected without me having to have done anything. I don't understand why this new lens doesn't show up on its own.

Because, as shown in your first screenshot, the option to use lens profile corrections is turned off. What I describe is a way to make sure it is turned on when you import images. I can't show screenshots because I type this on my iPad, but perhaps this helps: https://helpx.adobe.com/si/lightroom-classic/help/raw-defaults.html
