I think you mean a lean-to. I did this on a metal sided barn at my other place. I nailed and bolted a 2x6 (or 2x8, can't remember the size) to the poles and girts, right through the metal, just under the eave of the barn then used joist hangers to put the joists for the lean-to on that piece, then metal roofing over that. It's still there after 20 years. The end attached to the barn is essentially covered so there's no rain getting in behind it and running down the wall.
I think if you are attaching it to an exposed area you'd have to cut the siding and so the attachment is behind and under the siding and probably need flashing to route water onto the lean-to roof. If attaching as an extension of the existing roof line I'd take any trim off, if the eaves are enclosed, or just extend the roof rafter, depending on how the roof is framed.
