XF 2.3 Forum not using S3 after import

[Spectral-Brain]

I just migrated from IPS 4.x which we utilized s3 for our attachments. It looks like none of that was imported over to fit the new structure needed for Xenforo. Does this mean I have to lose all my attachments? I installed the addon https://xenforo.com/community/resou...an-spaces-or-amazon-s3-for-file-storage.6805/ but the instructions look like it needs things in the internal_data and data folder.

Attachments and avatars need to be hosted on the same server when importing.
They should have been copied to local directories from the backup.

The import will have to be done over from scratch if nothing was imported.

So I need to download the entire S3 bucket to the forums, then run the import? Or can I leave them in S3 and the import downloads them?

You need to download them to the same server you are doing the import on.
