Migrate from Camp Automation to HighLevel

Camp Automation Contacts map directly to GoHighLevel Contacts. Standard properties (name, email, phone, company association) transfer as typed fields. Custom fields on Contacts require schema discovery before migration—we prompt the customer to export the full field list from the Camp UI or provide screen recordings of the Contact settings page. Without this, we risk creating fields with incorrect types in GoHighLevel (text vs. date vs. dropdown), which corrupts reporting filters. Tag taxonomy from Camp preserves as GoHighLevel tags on the Contact record.

Camp Company records map to GoHighLevel Contacts with a company name stored in the business name field. GoHighLevel does not have a native separate Company/Account object at the Starter and Unlimited tiers the way Salesforce does; company context lives as a field on the Contact. If the customer has used Camp Companies with multiple associated Contacts, we flatten the association by linking each Contact to the same business name value. GoHighLevel does not enforce referential integrity between Contacts sharing a company name.

Camp Deals map to GoHighLevel Opportunities. The Deal's pipeline assignment maps to a GoHighLevel Pipeline, stage maps to Stage, value maps to Amount, and close date maps to Close Date. We use a named stage-to-stage mapping during migration because stage naming conventions differ. Custom fields on Deals require schema discovery alongside Contact custom fields and are mapped to GoHighLevel Opportunity custom fields of equivalent type.

Each Camp Deal pipeline maps to a GoHighLevel Pipeline. The pipeline stages within each map to GoHighLevel pipeline stages with a one-to-one stage name mapping. We create the pipeline and stage structure in GoHighLevel before Opportunities are imported so that the stage field references are satisfied at insert time.

Camp Automation Campaigns group email, SMS, social, and push notification assets under a single parent record. GoHighLevel has a Campaign object for marketing campaigns and Opportunities for sales pipeline tracking, but no native multi-channel parent object that groups different channel assets under one parent. We preserve the association by importing the Campaign as a GoHighLevel Campaign record and tagging channel-specific records (email templates, SMS templates, social posts) with a campaign reference tag. The UI in GoHighLevel will not show a unified multi-channel view identical to Camp.

Camp email templates (subject, HTML body, variable placeholders) export as HTML with inline CSS and preserved variable syntax. We import these as GoHighLevel Campaign email templates or workflow email action templates. Where variable syntax differs between Camp and GoHighLevel, we flag the transformation and note it in the migration report for the customer's admin to validate before sending.

Tags are flat label objects applied to Contacts and Deals in Camp Automation. We preserve the tag taxonomy exactly and reapply all tags at import time in GoHighLevel. Tags that do not exist in GoHighLevel are created automatically during migration. The tag vocabulary is preserved for segmentation continuity post-migration.

Custom fields on Camp Contacts, Companies, and Deals require schema discovery before migration. Field types (text, date, dropdown, number) are mapped to equivalent GoHighLevel field types. GoHighLevel supports custom fields on Contacts and Opportunities. We pre-create destination fields before record import so that values insert without type mismatch errors. This step is the most common source of migration delays when the customer cannot provide a field list export.

Camp Automation Users and Owners map by email address to GoHighLevel Users. We match owners on email and assign migrated records to the corresponding user in GoHighLevel. Users that do not exist in GoHighLevel are flagged in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes.
