data transfer for 2D to 3D

I have been working in a project that deals with the study of eddy currents in a solid rotor. For that purpose, I need to compute the magnetic vector potential in the air gap of the machine. For this, I am using an in-house 2D simulation software of our lab. The computed vector potential is then used as a source for a 3D model of the rotor. I am intended to do the 3D simulation in Comsol software.
I have the results of 2D simulation, the computed magnetic vector potential, in each nodes of the mesh. Now, for the 3D model, I want to first create an identical mesh (same as the 2D mesh) in Comsol and then extrude it to make a 3D model.
Now, the main problem is that I am not being able to transfer the 2D datas into Comsol. I am not being able to create an identical mesh as 2D in Comsol (by identical I mean, there are same number of elements and nodes and the value of magnetic vector potential is also same in all the node).
Can you please help me by suggesting any way through which I can make such input to the Comsol software. I would be very obliged to have your valuable suggestions.
Thank you in advance
