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.

Prior to this step, PATCH the user flow to add the attribute to the attribute collection step (to determine how it will be displayed).
