Request: Hard-Wire Method to Sync

I am stuck with my university WiFi network not syncing between Bookends iPadOS and Bookends macOS. I will try to sort out internally what protocol is missing or caught by the university routers. In the meantime, I might ask whether the two apps could support a "hard wire" method to synchronize between the two platforms. Connect a USB cable between desktop and iPad, fire up the apps on each system, and do a "Sync with Cable" method.
Thanks!

This method to sync could be useful for such cases, but it seems that Apple has no API for this.

Sorry to hear this. Thank you for the update. I am still troubleshooting the issue. My best guess is that our campus routers are blocking (blacklisting or not whitelisting) the protocol required for WiFi sync.

For those who are interested, the issue has been resolved. My campus routers were blocking the protocols needed for the WiFi sync between BE iPadOS and BE macOS.
