Person Custom Attributes

I created a custom attribute for a person in V2 legacy admin, I do not see option anywhere to insert value of that attribute? Where can I find a form to insert value for custom attribute on openmrs (v2 or v3)?

Usually, you’d set those in the Registration App. 2.x has very detailed documentation. Likewise the 3.x registration app supports setting person attributes although it isn’t as well documented.

Mostly, though, person attributes are a space for implementations to add whatever additional patient information they need to store. E.g., in O3, the patient photo is stored as a person attribute, as is any phone number or email. For custom attributes, it’s sort of expected you’d have a screen that’s setup to fill in the attribute where necessary.

how do I make custom attribute appear on v3 registration UI then? or is it doable from API only? can help to explain in detail for steps please? Also, I am using dockerized version of v3 so, I won’t be able to modify code.
