PATCH Is Not Working For External Claims Data Records (Doc ID 2881648.1)

Symptoms

We have an external application which will add new data to a dynamic record associated to external claims data. When setting this up using the generic API (externalclaimsdata) we are running into this issue where
PATCH is not working, only PUT, but PUT deletes existing data.
It is necessary to perform initial query to find externalClaimsData.id when you have only claims.code.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Step 1 – Create claim and add one line to the external  claims data record
Check if your context is the right claim and record using a GET operation.

Step 2 – Try to add another line to the external claims data record, now using PUT
Result: data “Value1” is replaced by “Value2”

Step 3 – Try to add another line ("Value3”)to the external claims data record, now using PATCH

{
   "exemptFromPurging": false,
   "estadoContaMedica": [
       {
           "estado": "Value3"
       }
   ]
}
Refresh your claim screen, trying to see the new data but nothing changed.
