Overview
GBuilder and HighLevel share the same fundamental CRM objects—contacts, companies, deals, tasks, and custom fields—but they structure pipelines, tags, and automation logic differently. GBuilder typically uses a simpler pipeline model with per-contact billing, while HighLevel uses a pipeline-stage-driven opportunity model with flat-rate unlimited-contact pricing. FlitStack AI maps all standard GBuilder objects via the HighLevel API, preserving create dates, owner assignments, and custom field values. The migration process handles standard object mapping directly through the API, ensuring that historical data integrity is maintained. HighLevel has no native equivalent for GBuilder workflows, sequences, or automations—those must be rebuilt in HighLevel's workflow builder after migration. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any in-flight changes during cutover, followed by a field-level reconciliation before your team goes live in HighLevel. This reconciliation step verifies that all records transferred correctly and identifies any data discrepancies that need attention before you fully switch over to HighLevel's platform.
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 GBuilder 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.
GBuilder
Contact
HighLevel
Contact
1:1GBuilder contacts map directly to HighLevel contacts. The primary challenge is resolving multi-company associations—GBuilder allows a contact to belong to multiple companies; HighLevel stores one primary company on the contact record and associates additional companies through the Companies relationship tab.
GBuilder
Company
HighLevel
Company
1:1GBuilder company records map to HighLevel companies (Accounts). GBuilder company hierarchies (parent-child) map to the parent_company relationship in HighLevel. Circular references are flagged before migration since parent records must exist before child records reference them. During the schema audit, FlitStack reviews company records to identify parent-child relationships and checks for circular dependencies. Any issues are resolved with your team before the migration load sequence begins.
GBuilder
Deal
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1GBuilder deal records map to HighLevel opportunities. The deal name becomes the opportunity name, amount maps to the monetary value field, and close date maps to the expected close date. The deal stage maps to the opportunity status field with value-by-value mapping for each stage name.
GBuilder
Pipeline
HighLevel
Pipeline + Status
1:1GBuilder pipelines become HighLevel pipeline objects. Each GBuilder pipeline maps to one HighLevel pipeline, and GBuilder pipeline labels are preserved as a custom text field on each opportunity since HighLevel does not have a native pipeline label field distinct from the pipeline object itself.
GBuilder
Tag
HighLevel
Contact Tag
1:1GBuilder contact tags map as string values to the HighLevel tags field on each contact. HighLevel enforces a 100-character per tag limit. Tags exceeding this length are truncated and flagged for manual review after migration. Before migration, FlitStack scans GBuilder tags to identify those exceeding the 100-character limit. Your team decides whether to shorten those tags in GBuilder before export or accept the truncation in HighLevel.
GBuilder
Call / Email / Meeting / Note
HighLevel
Activity Log (Note / Task)
1:1GBuilder call logs, emails, meetings, and notes migrate as HighLevel activity log entries attached to the corresponding contact record. Original timestamps, owners, and note body content are preserved. HighLevel's activity feed displays these chronologically on each contact profile. This migration preserves the full communication history for each contact, ensuring sales and support teams can review past interactions without switching between platforms.
GBuilder
Custom Field
HighLevel
Custom Field
1:1GBuilder custom fields on contacts, companies, and deals become HighLevel custom fields on the corresponding object. Multi-select pick-list types in GBuilder have no native HighLevel equivalent and are converted to comma-separated text fields. Custom field data type mapping is verified during the sample migration phase.
GBuilder
Deal Contact Role
HighLevel
Opportunity Contact Role
1:1GBuilder deal-to-contact associations map to HighLevel opportunity contact roles. The primary contact is assigned as the decision-maker role; additional contacts receive standard contact roles. This preserves the relationship between opportunities and the people attached to them. During migration, FlitStack reviews each GBuilder deal to identify all associated contacts and maps them to the corresponding opportunity in HighLevel. Role assignments are verified during the sample migration phase to ensure the correct contact is designated as the primary decision-maker on each opportunity.
GBuilder
Funnel / Form / Landing Page
HighLevel
Not Migrated
1:1GBuilder funnels, forms, and landing pages are built within GBuilder's page builder and have no structural equivalent in HighLevel. These must be rebuilt from scratch in HighLevel's funnel and form builder. We provide a page inventory checklist to help your team prioritize recreation in the correct order.
GBuilder
Automation / Sequence / Workflow
HighLevel
Not Migrated
1:1GBuilder automations, sequences, and workflow triggers are logic-layer constructs that cannot be exported as portable definitions. They must be rebuilt manually in HighLevel's workflow builder. We export your GBuilder automation definitions (trigger events, action steps, and conditions) as a reference document for your HighLevel admin to use during the rebuild phase.
GBuilder
Integration / Webhook
HighLevel
Not Migrated
1:1GBuilder third-party integrations and webhook connections cannot be migrated. Each integration (payment processor, accounting software, other SaaS tools) must be reconnected in HighLevel. We provide an integration inventory that documents every active connection in GBuilder so your team can re-establish each one in HighLevel post-migration.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
GBuilder gotchas
BIM model files are not exportable via API
Custom project properties vary by project
Approval chain status fields are simplified on export
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

Migration approach
Audit GBuilder schema and design HighLevel target schema
FlitStack audits your GBuilder data model before migration begins: counts of contacts, companies, deals, custom fields, and tags. We design the HighLevel target schema—creating custom fields, defining pipeline structures, setting up opportunity status values per pipeline, and provisioning user accounts. We deliver a schema setup checklist so your HighLevel admin can pre-create the configuration before data moves. This step prevents field-mismatch errors during the load phase.
Resolve GBuilder users to HighLevel users by email
Every GBuilder owner and task assignee is matched to a HighLevel user by email address. Unmatched owners are flagged in a pre-flight report with a fallback assignment recommendation. No record migrates without a valid HighLevel owner unless your team explicitly approves a null-owner fallback. This step ensures accountability trails and assignment history transfer correctly. The owner resolution process also validates that the matched HighLevel user has appropriate access permissions for the sub-account. If a GBuilder user account has been deactivated, FlitStack flags that record for your admin to assign a new owner before the migration run commits.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of records—typically 200–500 across contacts, companies, deals, and activity logs—migrates first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report showing every mapped field, its GBuilder source value, and its HighLevel destination value. You review pick-list value mappings, custom field data types, tag character lengths, and owner resolution before the full run commits. Approval of the sample diff is the gate for the full migration.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full GBuilder dataset loads in the validated sequence: companies, contacts, then opportunities with relationship links resolved. A delta-pickup window opens simultaneously—typically 24–48 hours—in which your team continues working in GBuilder while FlitStack monitors for new and modified records. At the close of the delta window, those in-flight changes are pulled into HighLevel, merging cleanly with the initial load. An audit log documents every record touched and the timestamp of each operation.
Reconcile record counts and hand off rebuild documentation
FlitStack delivers a reconciliation report comparing GBuilder record counts to HighLevel record counts for every object. Discrepancies are investigated and corrected before go-live. Alongside the report, we hand off the automation inventory (GBuilder workflow definitions as a rebuild reference) and the integration checklist (every active third-party connection to re-establish in HighLevel). Your team has a clear checklist for post-migration setup before you switch off GBuilder.
