Hello
So, Subscriptions API doesn't support that by default.
You'd want to use Subscription Schedules API for this instead: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules
You can create a schedule from the existing subscription: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#existing-subscription
Then define a phase where collection is paused & set an end_date for the phase which would be equal to the duration you want to pause for.. I don't have good docs for this part but you can look at the usecases here to jerryrig it: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases
The next phase after that can have the regular pricing and you can unset pause_collection behavior

Is this how it works?

More or less, yes. I haven't tried this myself so I can't say this would work for sure but you'd want to create the schedule first and then update it in a separate API call.
You can't set other params along with from_subscriptions in an API call: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscription_schedules/create#create_subscription_schedule-from_subscription
Migrate an existing subscription to be managed by a subscription schedule. If this parameter is set, a subscription schedule will be created using the subscription’s item(s), set to auto-renew using the subscription’s interval. When using this parameter, other parameters (such as phase values) cannot be set. To create a subscription schedule with other modifications, we recommend making two separate API calls.

Omg whys that so confusing haha
ornate oar
It is a bit confusing, yes 😅
I'd recommend looking at this example to structure your update call: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#changing-subscriptions
The example uses the regular billing cycle end date for the current phase, but you'd want to set it to your requirement
