I need to rekey my tables after importing

I'm used to a database-first development approach (only an SQL background) meaning that any modifications to the structure of my data/tables/relations, I have always managed directly in the database via SQL statements. I'm fully on-bard with Convex's mission and position on SQL, but I'm still in the early stages of the Mt Everest of learning curves for me.

I've started small, imorting a primary table, some secondary tables (my terms) and a few many-to-many tables that link them. Since convex generates new unique row IDs, I would like to update/replace the values that make up all of the relationships in the many-to-many linking tables. What is the convex/JS way to do this, updating foreign keys based on new primary keys?
