    Hi Jayakumar,

    You can create a field programmatically with the CreateAttributeRequest Class.

    Take a look at the following samples on docs.microsoft.com/.../sample-create-update-entity-metadata

    You use the CreateAttributeRequest as mentioned previously with the type of attribute metadata (based on which attribute you are looking to create).

    See the special requirements if creating lookup attributes.

    Hope this helps.
