Snapshot import without ID

Hey I'm trying to import a snapshot export from my prod deployment into my dev deployment and am getting the following error

Hit an error while importing:
New table departments has IDs that conflict with existing internal table. Consider importing this table without `_id` fields or import into a new deployment

Hit an error while importing:
New table departments has IDs that conflict with existing internal table. Consider importing this table without `_id` fields or import into a new deployment

. Is there a quick way to get around this?

Looking at the docs this seems to be a bug

Seed dev deployments with sample data, exported from prod or another dev deployment.

it sounds like you're hitting the issue mentioned in docs

Snapshot import is not always supported when importing into a deployment that was created before Convex version 1.7.

your deployment has creation time 2023-08-11 04:19:15.138173 (i was able to look up deployment metadata since you're verified) so that sounds like the issue there's no way to get around this, other than the options mentioned in the error message
