Magento 2: Update default value for custom customer attribute programmatically

Question

We have a custom boolean customer attribute created from installSchema script like below:

$eavSetup->addAttribute(
 \Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY,
 'test_attribute',
 [
 'label' => 'Test Attribute',
 'input' => 'select', 
 'source' => 'Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\Source\Boolean', 
 'default' => 0,
 'required' => false,
 'visible' => true,
 'system' => false,
 'filterable' => false,
 'is_used_in_grid' => false,
 'is_filterable_in_grid' => false,
 'is_searchable_in_grid' => false,
 ]
 );

I need to change the default value to "1" for this attribute through upgradeSchema. Tried below code for the same in upgrade schema:

if (version_compare($context->getVersion(), '1.1.0', '<')) {
 $this->eavSetupFactory->create()->updateAttribute(\Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY, 'test_attribute', 'default', 1);
 }

But, it didn't worked. The default value is still No, also verified in eav_attribute table in database. I can also confirm that the upgrade schema is working and the if condition for version compare is also working. The version in setup_module table is also getting updated. Are there any changes needed to the updateAttribute method call? Please assist.

create etc/UpgradeData.php

namespace [Vendor]\[Module]\Setup;
 
use Magento\Eav\Setup\EavSetup;
use Magento\Eav\Setup\EavSetupFactory;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\UpgradeDataInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;
use Magento\Customer\Setup\CustomerSetupFactory;
 
class UpgradeData implements UpgradeDataInterface
{
 private $eavSetupFactory;
 protected $customerSetupFactory;
 public function __construct(
 EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory,
 CustomerSetupFactory $customerSetupFactory
 )
 {
 $this->eavSetupFactory = $eavSetupFactory;
 $this->customerSetupFactory = $customerSetupFactory;
 }
 public function upgrade(ModuleDataSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context)
 {
 $eavSetup = $this->eavSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $setup]);
 $customerSetup = $this->customerSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $setup]);
 //check version
 if (version_compare($context->getVersion(), '2.0.3') < 0) {
 //update customer attribute
 $customerSetup->updateAttribute(
 \Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY,
 'attribute_code',
 'default',
 1
 );
 }
 }
}

Answer 2

It got fixed on using "default_value" instead of "default". So, the updated working code in upgradeSchema is:

if (version_compare($context->getVersion(), '1.1.0', '<')) {
 $this->eavSetupFactory->create()->updateAttribute(\Magento\Customer\Model\Customer::ENTITY, 'test_attribute', 'default_value', 1);
}
