Workaround or Means to Pause/Resume MongoDB Realm Sync on Client Side?

Question

Has anyone found a means to effectively pause and then resume the sync process on client-side APIs for MongoDB Realm Sync setups?

I just want my app users to have the ability to choose when to sync the db, like when on wifi or their own network, etc... but so far I can't find a documented way to "pause|resume" the sync process programmatically.

I'm using Realm .net, but I'd be open to hearing about how anyone working with a Realm Sync client might have achieved the same effect?

Thanks

Turns out there IS (of course) a mechanism to regulate sync for things like low-battery or mobile-data preferences.

https://docs.mongodb.com/realm/sdk/dotnet/examples/sync-changes-between-devices/#std-label-dotnet-sync-data

var session = realm.GetSession();
session.Stop();
//later...
session.Start();
