Ability to update external web service through Web PD

Interamerican would like to be able to update External Services created from YAML files from WebPD. Currently, there is no update capability of external services discovered from YAML files. In order to be able to update an external service, you have to create a new one and make sure the YAML file you upload has the exact name as the file you originally created the external service.
This poses significant issues in governing the development of business processes, since developers should remember the name of the YAML files and make sure they rename the YAML file name when there is a business need to update the definitions.

    During dev phase, we may have to update several time the external service definition (Java, REST, ...). It will be great to update the binairies the java artificat or the URL or YAML. We should have a button to just click to refresh the business object and the operations, it will be easier than recreating an external service.
