Customization is the biggest advantage of the Magento eCommerce platform. You can customize every aspect of your Magento 2 website. Product attributes determine the characteristics of a product. You can add a custom field in the product attribute form in Magento 2.
## Steps to Add Custom Field and Save Value in Product Attribute Add Form in Magento 2:
**Step 1:** First we need to create a **“di.xml”** file inside the etc folder
**app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml**

Now, add the code as follows
```
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="MagentoCatalogBlockAdminhtmlProductAttributeEditTabFront">
        <plugin name="extension_attribute_edit_form" type="VendorExtensionPluginBlockAdminhtmlProductAttributeEditTabFront" sortOrder="1"/>
    </type>
</config>
```

**Step 2:** In the next step, we will create the **“Front.php”** file inside the Plugin folder
**app\code\Vendor\Extension\Plugin\Block\Adminhtml\Product\Attribute\Edit\Tab**

Then append the below-mentioned code snippet
```
<?php
namespace VendorExtensionPluginBlockAdminhtmlProductAttributeEditTab;

class Front
{

    protected $custom;

    public function __construct(
        MagentoConfigModelConfigSourceYesno $custom
    ) {
        $this->custom = $custom;
    }

    public function aroundGetFormHtml(
        MagentoCatalogBlockAdminhtmlProductAttributeEditTabFront $subject,
        Closure $proceed
    )
    {

        $customSource = $this->custom->toOptionArray();
        $form = $subject->getForm();
        $fieldset = $form->getElement('front_fieldset');
        $fieldset->addField(
            'used_in_custom',
            'select',
            [
                'name' => 'used_in_custom',
                'label' => __('Used in Custom'),
                'title' => __('Used in Custom'),
                'values' => $customSource,
            ]
        );
        return $proceed();
    }
}
```

**Step 3:** Then we will create the **“db_schema.xml”** file inside the etc folder
**app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc**

Finally, add the following code
```
<schema xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Setup/Declaration/Schema/etc/schema.xsd">
    <table name="catalog_eav_attribute" resource="default" engine="innodb" comment="Catalog EAV Attribute Table">
        <column xsi:type="smallint" name="used_in_custom" unsigned="true" nullable="false"
                identity="false" default="0" comment="Custom forms"/>
   </table>
</schema>
```
