Add option for custom select attribute on customer edit page Magento 2

Question

I want to add my own custom option for an attribute.Please see attached image.

enter image description here

Just guide me which files i need to create.

I have just created one file for now. Please see code below, app/code/Vendor/Module/view/base/ui_component/customer_form.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
 <fieldset name="customer">
 <field name="ffl" formElement="select">
 <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="source" xsi:type="string">customer</item>
 </item>
 </argument>
 <settings>
 <dataType>text</dataType>
 <visible>true</visible>
 </settings>
 </field>
 </fieldset>
</form>

• Prathap Gunasekaran: This should be done by installdata or upgradedata to create an customer attribute with options as well.
• Sunny Rahevar: Is there any way to call option using tooptionArray() or something using model file or UI component file?

Try this,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
<fieldset name="customer">
 <field name="custom_field" formElement="select">
 <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="source" xsi:type="string">customer</item>
 </item>
 </argument>
 <formElements>
 <select>
 <settings>
 <options class="Vendor\Module\Model\Config\Source\Options"/>
 </settings>
 </select>
 </formElements>
 <settings>
 <dataType>text</dataType>
 <visible>true</visible>
 </settings>
 </field>
</fieldset>

In the options file, add the below code

<?php 
 namespace Vendor\Module\Model\Config\Source; 
 class Options implements \Magento\Framework\Option\ArrayInterface 
 {
/**
 * Options for Type
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function toOptionArray()
{
 return [
 ['value' => 1, 'label' => __('Type 1')],
 ['value' => 2, 'label' => __('Type 2')],
 ['value' => 3, 'label' => __('Type 3')]
 ];
}}

Hope this helps. Peace :)
