Remove an attribute from 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.
The attribute is removed from both the onAttributeCollection > attributes and onAttributeCollection > attributeCollectionPage > views collections of the user flow.
This API operation fails when you attempt to remove the last remaining attribute on the user flow.
Permissions
Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.
Permission type

Important
In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be an owner or member of the group or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. External ID User Flow Administrator is the least privileged role supported for this operation.
If successful, this method returns a 204 No Content response code. If unsuccessful, a 4xx error is returned with specific details. Attempting to remove the last remaining attribute results in a 400 Bad Request error code.
