Solution

This will apply to any attribute/property, but this can be done in a self-service manner by configuring the target property in a testing tenant, e.g., for phone attribute, these instructions can be followed: Activate and Configure Attributes for Flexible Identifiers

Once the testing tenant is configured, use Terraform to export the configuration (auto-generate the Terraform config) and observe what the new config requirements look like. Then, that can be implemented in the main Terraform configuration Auto-generating Terraform config files from the Auth0 tenant.
