We’ll show you how to add category attributes in magento2 and display in category form. We show here 3 easy step for add category attribute and display attribute to category form.

Step 1: Create patch file for create category attribute. Create file below.
app/code/MageDad/Module/Setup/Patch/Data/AddAttributeCategoryAttribute.php

PHP
<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace MageDad\Module\Setup\Patch\Data;

use Magento\Catalog\Model\Product as ProductModel;
use Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\ScopedAttributeInterface;
use Magento\Eav\Setup\EavSetupFactory;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\Patch\DataPatchInterface;
use Magento\Catalog\Model\Category;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
use Throwable;

/**
 * Add attribute to category
 */
class AddAttributeCategoryAttribute implements DataPatchInterface
{
    public function __construct(
        private ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup,
        private EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory,
        private LoggerInterface $logger,
    ) {
    }

    /**
     * Attribute used for assigning Amplience content to category
     *
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function apply()
    {
        $eavSetup = $this->eavSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $this->moduleDataSetup]);
        $eavSetup->addAttribute(Category::ENTITY, 'attribute_code', [
            'type' => 'text',
            'label' => 'Attribute Name',
            'note' => 'Attribute notes',
            'input' => 'text',
            'default' => '',
            'sort_order' => 5,
            'global' => ScopedAttributeInterface::SCOPE_STORE,
            'group' => 'General Information',
            'visible_on_front' => true
        ]);
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public static function getDependencies() {
        return [];
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getAliases() {
        return [];
    }
}


Step 2: In this step we are going to add attribute in category form.

Create file – app/code/MageDad/Module/view/adminhtml/ui_component/category_form.xml

XML
<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
    <fieldset name="general">
        <field name="attribute_code">
            <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
                <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
                    <item name="required" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
                    <item name="validation" xsi:type="array">
                        <item name="required-entry" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
                    </item>
                    <item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">100</item>
                    <item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">string</item>
                    <item name="formElement" xsi:type="string">input</item>
                    <item name="label" translate="true" xsi:type="string">Attribute Name </item>
                </item>
            </argument>
        </field>
    </fieldset>
</form>

Step 2: Run setup upgrade command
