The one posted answer doesn't really answer the original question. The issue is that there are not augmentation options available when creating an object detection model in Create ML (only when creating an image classifier model). I did some tests and it seems that Create ML does not do any augmentation by itself. That means we do need to provide our own augmentations.
But I'd love to know why the augmentation options are not present for the object detection models...
