Given we have different settings on a staging site, mainly

1. Url is different
2. Auth0 settings are different and
3. Email is disabled  
what would be a good way to get the latest data from a production discourse site into a staging site.

I’m thinking.

1. Export settings via console.
2. backup production database to s3
3. restore staging from s3
4. restore settings via console.
