I came here to submit this exact things. It's incredible PM doesn't have this option.
Example: I block all Adobe communications, but every now and then I need to authenticate. Currently the only way to do this is to shut down the app, authenticate, then reboot the app once my Adobe app is working again. All I really want to do is open the UI, hit pause, sign in to Adobe, and unpause.
Multiply this out by all the apps that need cloud authentication? Yeah it's a PITA.
Selectively block/unblock? I'm not taking the chance that the apps change what IPs or ports they're gathering data on and leaving myself open. I don't wany ANY telemetry - just a quick pause, sign in etc
WOULD BE EVEN BETTER IF
I could pause by App. Want to sign in to Potatoshop? Quickly pause portmaster blocking Creative Cloud, but all other apps are still blocked from telemetry.

This would also come in handy for diagnosing a possible connection problem.

@ewebgh33 what you can do is add a rule allow *
in the specific app, then do the update and then delete the rule again.

With respect, I can do that, but that's many more clicks and work that has to be repeated, repeated, repeated, for different apps at different times. Better would be PAUSE APP BLOCKING button when you click on the specific app in PM. Keep all other rules for all other apps running, but hit ONE button, pause/unpause to allow us to authenticate, without having to create a rule, delete a rule, 12 times a year x 2 apps, or 3 apps, or 5 apps, or maybe 10 apps (the way everything is going with cloud sign-ins).

I would like to see a Pause option as well, for the same reasons already mentioned
