Then when I went to MonoLab to verify, I noticed a big problem!  On my _User collection, for example, I have a field 'photoFile', which stores an image (jpg, png, etc).  \r\n\r\nWhen I export the data to JSON using Parse's export tool from the data browser on Parse, I see sufficient data about that photoFile field (example below):\r\n\r\n```\r\n\"photoFile\": {\r\n            \"__type\": \"File\",            \r\n            \"name\": \"tfss-XXX-XXX-ETC.png\",\r\n            \"url\": \"http://files.parsetfss.com/asdfasdfasdf/tfss-XXX-XXX-ETC.png\"\r\n        }\r\n\r\n```\r\n\r\nNow, when I look in the new MongoLab collection for that _User collection, it just has the filename listed instead.  No type or location data (URL) is provided as with the JSON export above:\r\n```\r\n\"photoFile\": \"tfss-XXX-XXX-ETC.png\"  \r\n```\r\n\r\nQuestions: \r\n1.  How do I know where to access my data!? No URL means no clue where the file is!\r\n2.  Do I have to change the way I access data on the client side?\r\n3.  How do we migrate files from parse file servers to our own S3 buckets?\r\n"}}
