Ivy.wf().documents() - How to update an existing document with new content?

I got an error when trying to update the content for an existing document that's managed by Ivy.wf().documents(). This api doesn't have the method update so I just tried with following code:

ivy.wf.documents().add("newfolder\\hello.pdf").write().withContentFrom(new File("sourcefolder\\file2.pdf", false));

The message looks like:

IOException: File newfolder\hello.pdf already exists PersistencyException: Cannot create file 'D:\work\AxonIvyDesigner6.3.0\files\application\newfolder\hello.pdf' for document 'newfolder\hello.pdf'

Yeah! it's correct! But, I want to update this existing file with new content.

I already tried to use method delete first:

ivy.wf.documents().delete(new ch.ivyteam.ivy.workflow.document.Path("newfolder\\hello.pdf"));

Or, trying to delete the physical file; but it did not work.

Thanks for your checking!
