Does anyone know how to create a grooved seam or a bead in a sheet metal part for strength?

Currently Onshape sheet metal does not support such functionality. Please create an improvement request. In meantime you can create sketches on a flat pattern to indicate bead path. These sketches can be exported with flat pattern in dxf/dwg file or included in draings.1

If you really need a bead, I've done it like this: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e7f6e1b60fdab346235324c1/w/783ecfd6d294cbaae3ca2df1/e/408b2db0df47c411c735af81
