Description

I wish I could develop a patch (expansion) for an existing packs. For example, if I have installed a Jira package and are creating some workflows with Jira actions, I want to export those workflows to a separate package that users can install as a patch for an existing Jira package. ie after installing the patch package, all actions/workflows from it should be under the Jira package, without losing existing actions in the Jira package.

Is there any way to do that?

Determine whether a separate package can extend an installed pack without replacing its existing actions, and document or implement the supported behavior and its limitations.
