Overview
Moving from APTANIA CRM to GoHighLevel is a structural migration that requires manual export, field remapping, and parent-child record resolution. APTANIA has no public API, so all data extraction relies on in-platform CSV or JSON exports with per-month record ceilings on the Basic plan. We extract Contact, Company, Activity, and Deal records in dependency order, map APTANIA's B2C/B2B flag to GoHighLevel Custom Fields, and sequence parent records before child records to preserve associations. Email automation rules and web tracking attribution do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of every active trigger with a GoHighLevel Workflow equivalent so the customer's admin can rebuild post-migration. GoHighLevel's unlimited contact model removes the 1000-record monthly ceiling that constrains APTANIA Basic users.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a APTANIA CRM object lands in HighLevel, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
APTANIA CRM
Contact
HighLevel
Contact
1:1APTANIA Contact records map directly to GoHighLevel Contact. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address) transfer as-is. The APTANIA B2C/B2B flag is preserved as a custom property (contact_type__c) in GoHighLevel Custom Fields. We create the custom field in GoHighLevel before migration and map the flag value to a picklist. Lifecycle stage data stored in APTANIA custom fields migrates to GoHighLevel Lifecycle Stage if present, or to a text custom field if the source schema does not use GoHighLevel-native values.
APTANIA CRM
Company/Account
HighLevel
Company
1:1APTANIA Company records map to GoHighLevel Company with the domain, name, address, and industry fields preserved. The Company record is created before Contact import so that the contact-to-company relationship is resolved at insert time. We use company name as the dedupe key. If APTANIA stores multiple contacts per company, we resolve the primary contact flag and attach secondary contacts via the GoHighLevel Contact-Company relationship.
APTANIA CRM
Deal
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1APTANIA Deal records map to GoHighLevel Opportunities. The monetary value, close date, stage name, and associated contact and company references transfer. We map APTANIA stage names to GoHighLevel pipeline stage values during the transform phase, creating any missing stages in GoHighLevel Pipelines before the Deal import batch runs. Deal-owner references resolve by email match to GoHighLevel User records.
APTANIA CRM
Pipeline
HighLevel
Pipeline
lossyAPTANIA pipeline structures (stages and stage order) are inferred from exported Deal records during scoping. We recreate the pipeline in GoHighLevel with matching stage names and probabilities. If APTANIA supports multiple pipelines, we create corresponding GoHighLevel Pipelines and assign Deal records to the correct pipeline via GoHighLevel's pipeline assignment field. Stage status values (won, lost, open) map to GoHighLevel Opportunity status equivalents.
APTANIA CRM
Activity
HighLevel
Task
1:1APTANIA Activity logs (calls, notes, manual tasks) map to GoHighLevel Tasks. Email activities stored in APTANIA's activity log migrate as Task records with the body preserved and the activity type flagged in a custom field. APTANIA's undocumented activity schema requires a pre-migration schema audit; we extract all available fields and map what is structurally consistent, flagging any unstructured activity data for manual review. Activity timestamps are preserved using GoHighLevel's due date and reminder fields.
APTANIA CRM
Custom Properties
HighLevel
Custom Fields
lossyAPTANIA custom fields migrate to GoHighLevel Custom Fields, which we provision in the destination account before data import. Field types map by data type: text to text, number to number, date to date, and multi-select checkbox arrays to GoHighLevel multi-select fields. We document the complete custom field schema in a field map delivered with the migration package. Any custom field metadata not exposed in the APTANIA export (such as field descriptions or conditional display rules) is noted as lost and recommended for manual documentation.
APTANIA CRM
User
HighLevel
User
1:1APTANIA User records map to GoHighLevel Users by email address. Role and permission structures differ between platforms and do not migrate directly; we flag permission differences in the migration report for manual configuration in GoHighLevel Roles and Permissions settings. Inactive APTANIA users are flagged for optional GoHighLevel provisioning.
APTANIA CRM
Email Automation Rules
HighLevel
Not Migrated
1:1APTANIA email automation rules are stored server-side and are not accessible via any export mechanism. We do not migrate automation logic. As part of pre-migration preparation, we generate a written inventory of every active automation rule (trigger condition, delay, action) from in-platform screenshots provided by the customer, formatted as a GoHighLevel Workflow rebuild guide. The customer or a GoHighLevel specialist rebuilds these post-migration.

Web tracking attribution is not portable
HighLevel gotchas
Sub-account architecture creates isolated data silos per client
Usage-based telecom and AI costs are not in the subscription price
Workflows have no native equivalent in most destination CRMs
API rate limits cap bulk migration throughput at 100 requests per 10 seconds per sub-account
White-label configuration and branding assets do not export via API
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Scoped export and record inventory
We coordinate with the customer to extract all available records from APTANIA using in-platform export tools. We generate a record count by object type (Contacts, Companies, Deals, Activities, Custom Properties), identify the total against the 1000-record monthly ceiling, and advise on archiving or cleaning records if the count exceeds the limit. We document the export file format and any schema gaps discovered during the audit.
Destination schema design and custom field provisioning
We design the GoHighLevel destination schema before data import. This includes creating Custom Fields for APTANIA custom properties, configuring pipeline stages that mirror the APTANIA deal structure, and setting up GoHighLevel Roles to approximate the APTANIA user permission model. We provision the schema in a staging environment first for validation before production migration.
Data transformation and dependency sequencing
We transform exported APTANIA data into GoHighLevel-compatible format. Contact and Company records are sequenced with Companies imported first so that Contact-Company lookups resolve at insert time. Deal records are mapped to Opportunities with stage names matched to GoHighLevel pipeline values. Custom property values are mapped to the provisioned GoHighLevel Custom Fields. Activity logs are flattened into Task records with activity type preserved in a custom field.
Sandbox validation and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a GoHighLevel staging or test account to validate record counts, spot-check field mappings, and confirm that parent-child relationships are intact. The customer reviews a sample of 25-50 records and confirms the mapping before production migration begins. Any corrections to field names, custom field assignments, or stage mappings are made in the staging environment.
Production migration and cutover
We execute production migration in dependency order: Companies, Contacts, Opportunities, Activities, and Custom Field values. Each batch emits a reconciliation report (record count in, records created, records rejected) before the next phase begins. We coordinate a cutover window where the customer freezes new APTANIA writes, we run a final delta import of any records modified during the migration window, and GoHighLevel becomes the system of record.
Automation inventory handoff and post-migration support
We deliver the automation rebuild guide documenting every active APTANIA email automation rule with trigger, conditions, actions, and a recommended GoHighLevel Workflow equivalent. We support a five-business-day hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team. We do not rebuild workflows, sequences, or automations as part of the migration scope; that work requires the customer's admin or a GoHighLevel specialist.
