This JSON file can exist anywhere, but to keep things simple, add it to the same folder as used in step 1. `src/migrationdata`.
Directory specifies the directory that the given `filenames` exist in. For instance, a `contacts_filename` of `test.txt` with a `directory` of `migrationdata` would need to exist under `migrationdata/test.txt`.
Later on, we will bundle this file along with the others into its own folder. Keep it within the `migrationdata/` directory if you are passing data to your sandbox, for simplicity.
We need to run a few scripts to parse these files into our domain tables.
We can do this both locally and in a sandbox.
#### STEP 3: Bundle all relevant data files into one file
Move all the files specified in Step 1 into a shared folder, and create a tar.gz
#### STEP 3: Bundle all relevant data files into an archive
