I don't understand the question. Migrations API is used to migrate changes of your database schema (on one and the same server) and not moving data from one server to another. So the flow will be you do local improvements (developments), you reflect your DB changes as migration scripts, you deploy your new code to the staging server (with your favorite deploy method) and in the end you execute If I understand your problem correctly, you need initial dump from your local DB and initial restore on your staging DB which are described in details in the MongoDB documentation |

Yes, if your goal is to move *content* between *servers*, you should use
"mongodump" and "mongorestore". You also need to rsync the public/uploads
folder. And there are sample scripts for it in the "scripts" folder
(assuming A2 and a project born from apostrophe-boilerplate).
