Rahul,
I believe in the sample, Ashish used FirstName as an example only. As long as you have an existing crosswalk id and the new crosswalk id, you can use the same example format to add the new crosswalk and the attributes associated with the new crosswalk. You don't need to provide any existing attributes in the request.
If you want to use Reltio entity id, you can use the same JSON structure as Ashish shared, but provide the entity id under a Reltio crosswalk instead. Here is a sample for your reference.
[
{
"type": "configuration/entityTypes/Person",
"attributes": {
"NewAttribute": [
{
"value": "Jacob"
}
]
},
"crosswalks": [
{
"type": "Reltio",
"value": "<<Reltio Entity Id>>",
"contributorProvider": true,
"dataProvider": false
},
{
"type": "<<New Source>>",
"value": "<<New crosswalk ID>>",
"dataProvider": true
}
]
}
]

Subject: New crosswalk to be created for a newly added source and related newly added attributes using API for existing Entity id
We have consolidated profiles and now a new source has been introduced ABC. This source has reltio entity id with it. This source has new attributes(A1,A2,A3) which are being added in Reltio Data Model. This source ABC wants to update the profiles, since it has entity id, with the newly added attributes(A1-A3) using an API call and it should create a new crosswalk for these 3 attributes from the new source. How can i achieve this.
