  amplifyds import <model> <file>            import model data from excel file.

  amplifyds export <model> [file] [--after   export model data to excel file, you
  timestamp] [--all]                         can add --after to only export data

  amplifyds example <model> [file]           export example excel file for a
                                             model.

Use --dryrun in sync command before actually starting sync process to see the differ overview
Use --delete in sync command to delete isolated data that only exist in destination
If a model already has some data in datasource, you can first export these data to a excel file and modify them, then you can import the file to update these data without deleting or duplicating them
When export model data, use --after timestamp to only export newer data you want, use --all to export all data include deleted data
