Import the same sub ids #8

After creating the backup, how can we import the same sub ids when we restore to a new pool? It generates new sub ids when you restore.

As per the response from AWS Employee on this thread, sub is globally unique and hence is unique for user pool as well. Unlike username, which can be reassigned to another user in user pool, sub is never reassigned.

Hope this answers your question.
