We call an external Powershell script and pass it the arguments captured via the UI. Our script is highly customized, so this approach works for us.

Create a new workflow and then use the appropriate workflows within the schema like this?

Obviously, need to run the add custom attribute as many times as you need for your environment.. or create a workflow which does that and then reference that workflow from within your web-portal-used workflow.
