Add attribute (to user flow)

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Add an attribute to an external identities self-service sign up user flow that's represented by an externalUsersSelfServiceSignupEventsFlow object. You can add both custom and built-in attributes to a user flow.

The attribute is added to both the attributeCollection> attributes and attributeCollection> attributeCollectionPage > views collections on the user flow. In the views collection, the attribute is assigned the default settings. You can PATCH the user flow to customize the settings of the attribute on the views object, for example, marking it as required or updating the allowed input types.

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	EventListener.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	EventListener.ReadWrite.All	Not available.

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be an owner or member of the group or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. External ID User Flow Administrator is the least privileged role supported for this operation.

HTTP request

POST /identity/authenticationEventsFlows/{authenticationEventsFlow-id}/microsoft.graph.externalUsersSelfServiceSignUpEventsFlow/onAttributeCollection/microsoft.graph.onAttributeCollectionExternalUsersSelfServiceSignUp/attributes/$ref

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type	application/json. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply an odata.id property with the ID of the identityUserFlowAttribute object to add to the user flow.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 204 No Content response code. If unsuccessful, a 4xx error will be returned with specific details.

Examples

Request

The following example shows a request that adds city as an attribute for attribute collection step of an external identities self-service sign-up user flow. If the request is successful, the attribute is added to both the attributeCollection> attributes and attributeCollection> attributeCollectionPage > views collections on the user flow. After adding the attribute to the user flow, you can PATCH the user flow to customize the settings of the attribute on the views object, that is, customize the page layout.
