Since migrations is part of the elsa assembly, its not possible for us to add new migration to apply the modelchanges to the database.

Based on the information provided, it seems you are encountering an issue where the Entity Framework Core (EF Core) migrations are detecting changes in the model since the last migration was applied. This can happen when the EF Core model (the C# classes and configurations that represent your database schema) has been altered in a way that requires a new migration to update the database schema accordingly.

To resolve this issue, you typically need to add a new migration to capture these changes and apply them to your database. However, since you mentioned that migrations are part of the Elsa assembly and you cannot add a new migration, there are a few steps you can take:

1. Ensure that you are using the correct version of the dotnet-ef tool that matches the version of EF Core used in your project. Version mismatches can sometimes cause unexpected behavior.

2. If you are using a third-party library like Elsa Workflows, which manages its own migrations, you should check if there is an update available for the library that includes the necessary migrations.

3. If the library provides a way to run migrations programmatically, you can use that feature to apply the migrations. For example, Elsa provides a RunMigrationsHostedService that can be used to run migrations at application startup.

4. If you have extended the Elsa model in your own code, you may need to create a migration for your own context that includes these changes.

5. If none of the above solutions work, you may need to reach out to the maintainers of the Elsa Workflows library for guidance on how to handle migrations when changes are detected.

Since you are using Elsa version 2.14.1, make sure to check the documentation and release notes for that specific version to see if there are any known issues or special instructions regarding migrations.

If you continue to experience issues, consider opening an issue on the Elsa Workflows GitHub repository to seek assistance from the maintainers.
