There are two ways you could migrate the data, one create a full list of record objects and submit them via the API, that would work assuming you have all the data required. The other way would be to use retrieve with the list of prefixed for the records you have, this way you'll save the time needed populating the API data since the system will go directly to the authoritative name server and pick it from there.
