Expand primary partition with additional Volume on OVH instance with Linux Ubuntu

$

I'm trying to setup a VPS on OVH. I've chosen the smallest public cloud general purpose instance and installed Ubuntu 22.04. Here are the system specifications:

8 GB RAM 2 vCore (2.3 GHz) 50 GB NVMe 500 Mbit/s

I will refer to the disk of the instance as /dev/sda

I attached a 300 GB volume, I can manage to mount it as /dev/sdb and create a partition as /dev/sdb1 but this is not the result I wanted.

I'd like to increase the size of /dev/sda to 350 GB, is it possible? How?

Thank you for the kind help :)

I followed the following tutorial and obtained what it describes, that is I mounted the new volume as /dev/sdb1 in /mnt/disk https://help.ovhcloud.com/csm/en-public-cloud-compute-storage-additional-disk?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0050612

What I really want: I want to see the size of my instance partition (/dev/sda) grow to 350 GB
