I am trying to add a custom attribute using below code but its not working -

 namespace A2bizz\Customer\Setup; use Magento\Customer\Setup\CustomerSetupFactory; use Magento\Customer\Model\Customer; use Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\Set as AttributeSet; use Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\SetFactory as AttributeSetFactory; use Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallDataInterface; use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface; use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface; /** * @codeCoverageIgnore */ class InstallData implements InstallDataInterface { /** * @var CustomerSetupFactory */ protected $customerSetupFactory; /** * @var AttributeSetFactory */ private $attributeSetFactory; /** * @param CustomerSetupFactory $customerSetupFactory * @param AttributeSetFactory $attributeSetFactory */ public function __construct( CustomerSetupFactory $customerSetupFactory, AttributeSetFactory $attributeSetFactory ) { $this->customerSetupFactory = $customerSetupFactory; $this->attributeSetFactory = $attributeSetFactory; } public function install(ModuleDataSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context) { $setup->startSetup(); /** @var CustomerSetup $customerSetup */ $customerSetup = $this->customerSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $setup]); $customerEntity = $customerSetup->getEavConfig()->getEntityType('customer'); $attributeSetId = $customerEntity->getDefaultAttributeSetId(); /** @var $attributeSet AttributeSet */ $attributeSet = $this->attributeSetFactory->create(); $attributeGroupId = $attributeSet->getDefaultGroupId($attributeSetId); $customerSetup->addAttribute(Customer::ENTITY, 'a2bizz_attribute2', [ 'type' => 'varchar', 'label' => 'Custom Attribute2', 'input' => 'text', 'required' => false, 'visible' => true, 'user_defined' => true, 'sort_order' => 1000, 'position' => 1000, 'system' => 0, ]); $attribute = $customerSetup->getEavConfig()->getAttribute(Customer::ENTITY, 'a2bizz_attribute2') ->addData([ 'attribute_set_id' => $attributeSetId, 'attribute_group_id' => $attributeGroupId, 'used_in_forms' => ['adminhtml_customer'], ]); $attribute->save(); $setup->endSetup(); } } 

I check the backend entries in database , the entry of attribute is added to the tables , eav_attribute and customer_eav_attribute

but still it is not showing in edit form in admin section.

I also run below commands -

 php bin/magento setup:upgrade php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy php bin/magento cache:flush

Check with following. This is working for me to add custom attribute -

A2bizz/Example/Setup/InstallData.php

namespace A2bizz\Example\Setup; use Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallDataInterface; use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface; use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface; class InstallData implements InstallDataInterface { private $_eavSetupFactory; private $_attributeRepository; public function __construct( \Magento\Eav\Setup\EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory, \Magento\Eav\Model\AttributeRepository $attributeRepository ) { $this->_eavSetupFactory = $eavSetupFactory; $this->_attributeRepository = $attributeRepository; } public function install( ModuleDataSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context ) { $eavSetup = $this->_eavSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $setup]); // add customer_attribute to customer $eavSetup->removeAttribute(\Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY, 'customer_attribute'); $eavSetup->addAttribute( \Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY, 'customer_attribute', [ 'type' => 'varchar', 'label' => 'Custom Customer Attribute', 'input' => 'text', 'required' => false, 'system' => 0, 'global' => \Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\ScopedAttributeInterface::SCOPE_STORE, 'sort_order' => '200' ] ); // allow customer_attribute attribute to be saved in the specific areas $attribute = $this->_attributeRepository->get('customer', 'customer_attribute'); $setup->getConnection() ->insertOnDuplicate( $setup->getTable('customer_form_attribute'), [ ['form_code' => 'adminhtml_customer', 'attribute_id' => $attribute->getId()] ] ); } }
