When opening a realm after a breaking schema change an error is raised
[Error: The following changes cannot be made in additive-only schema mode:- Property 'Dog._id' has been changed from 'object id' to 'string'.]
Long term, we'd like to allow making breaking changes in developer mode. Currently users have to terminate sync and update the schema in the UI. https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/app-services/sync/data-model/migrate-schema-partner-collection/
Once the sync server team completes https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/BAAS-16909 it's possible to allow breaking changes from the client. But users need to delete their realm in order to open the realm and send the updated schema to the server. Letting users know how to delete the realm will make it much easier for them to iterate on their schema and make the changes they need.
