I'm following this and I can get the zip download working. However, is there a way to continuously report the download status/percent to a progress bar using this?

Question
C# .NET DownloadZip
Hi,
We don't have a prebuilt in way for this to occur automatically today. However, you could use the status zip download api and create one yourself! If you do, please share.
Happy Coding,

Hi Alex,
I sunk a lot of time into trying to access the download status, but since we're calling DownloadZip() with await, I can't seem to get that information while it's processing the download. I tried without await, but I still couldn't get it to work using C#. I'm by no means any kind of an expert developer, so there could very well be a way that I'm not aware of. For the application I'm working on, it's probably good enough to run a Marque progress bar and tell the user to "Please wait...download may take around 10 minutes".
