 ## Partition management
 
-You can add, drop, merge, split, redefine partitions by using `ALTER TABLE` statements.
+For `LIST` and `RANGE` partitioned tables, you can add and drop partitions using the `ALTER TABLE <table name> ADD PARTITION (<partition specification>)` or `ALTER TABLE <table name> DROP PARTITION <list of partitions>` statement.
+
+For `LIST` and `RANGE` partitioned tables, `REORGANIZE PARTITION` is not yet supported.
+
+For `HASH` partitioned tables, `COALESCE PARTITION` and `ADD PARTITION` are not yet supported.
+
+`EXCHANGE PARTITION` works by swapping a partition and a non-partitioned table, similar to how renaming a table like `RENAME TABLE t1 TO t1_tmp, t2 TO t1, t1_tmp TO t2` works.
+
+For example, `ALTER TABLE partitioned_table EXCHANGE PARTITION p1 WITH TABLE non_partitioned_table` swaps the `non_partitioned_table` table in the `p1` partition with the `partitioned_table` table.
+
+Ensure that all rows that you are exchanging into the partition match the partition definition; otherwise, these rows will not be found and cause unexpected issues.
+
+> **Warning:**
+>
+> `EXCHANGE PARTITION` is an experimental feature. It is not recommended to use it in a production environment. To enable it, set the `tidb_enable_exchange_partition` system variable to `ON`.
