Update automation config through API without pushing entire config file

For updating any Automation managed parameter, the only method through API is involving pushing the entire Automation config (which is a json file of hundreds lines) with modifications/addition all together. Even though I just want to update one single value. Is it a bit dangerous that there may be human mistake when modifying such a large json file. Wrong configuration may be push to the server. Graceful if there is a feature which allow user to partial update the configuration through API. Ref Case: 00730243

    I am in the same spot, I agree it is dangerous and I would expect specific API to be available in upcoming releases. That would simplify security management automation .
