Overview
IDX Broker is a property-IDX platform with a lightweight built-in CRM focused on real estate lead capture. Its data model stores contacts (leads and clients), property listings with full address and price data, and agent/owner information as separate but loosely linked objects. Monday CRM is a Work OS whose CRM module represents contacts as People, properties as items on a Deals or Listings board, and agents as workspace members. The core migration challenge is that IDX Broker's flat contact record plus external property feed does not map 1:1 into Monday's board-and-column structure — each property listing must become a Monday item with custom columns for every IDX Broker field, and contacts must be linked to their associated listings through Monday's relation columns or item linking. We map contacts to People, property records to Deal items with custom columns for address components, listing status, MLS number, and price, and agents to Monday workspace members by email. IDX Broker automations (auto-responders, lead-routing rules) have no equivalent in Monday and must be rebuilt using Monday Automations or monday sky. Wrapper pages and MLS feed configuration do not migrate — those are website-side settings that require reconfiguration on the destination domain.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a IDX Broker object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
IDX Broker
Contact
monday CRM
People (People Board)
1:1IDX Broker contacts migrate to Monday CRM People. First name, last name, email, phone, and address split into separate columns on the People board. Owner resolution maps the IDX Broker agent field to a Monday workspace member by email match.
IDX Broker
Contact Email
monday CRM
People Email column
1:1Email address migrates as a direct text column on the People board. If a contact has no email in IDX Broker, the field is left blank in Monday — duplicates based on email are flagged before migration. This duplicate check prevents redundant contact records from entering your Monday workspace and ensures data integrity throughout the migration process.
IDX Broker
Contact Phone
monday CRM
People Phone column
1:1Phone number maps to the Phone column type on the People board. Mobile and office numbers stored as separate fields in IDX Broker are concatenated or kept as two separate text columns based on your board configuration. We preserve the distinction between mobile and office phone numbers to maintain contact accessibility information.
IDX Broker
Contact Address
monday CRM
People Address column / custom text columns
1:1IDX Broker stores address as a single formatted string. We split it into Street, City, State, and ZipCode columns on the People board. If IDX Broker stores address components separately, each maps directly to the corresponding Monday column. This structural change improves searchability and enables geographic filtering of contacts within Monday.
IDX Broker
Contact Status
monday CRM
People Status column
1:1IDX Broker lead statuses (New, Active, Closed, etc.) map to Monday Status column values. Custom statuses require a value-by-value mapping before migration — we deliver the mapping plan before data moves. This ensures lead lifecycle continuity and prevents status mismatches that could disrupt your existing workflow processes.
IDX Broker
Property Listing
monday CRM
Listings Board Items
1:1Each IDX Broker property listing becomes a Monday item on a Listings board. We create custom columns for every property field — listing ID, MLS number, address components, price, bedrooms, bathrooms, status, and agent link — so every listing detail is searchable and filterable in Monday.
IDX Broker
Property Address
monday CRM
Listings Board Street / City / State / Zip / Country columns
1:manyIDX Broker stores the full property address as one string. Migration splits this into separate Street, City, State, Zip, and Country columns on the Listings board, enabling address-level filtering and map integrations in Monday. This granular address structure supports regional reporting and geographical analysis of your property portfolio.
IDX Broker
Property Price / List Price
monday CRM
Listings Board Numbers column
1:1Listing price stored as a string with currency formatting in IDX Broker converts to a plain number in Monday's Numbers column type, enabling sum calculations, filtering by price range, and board chart visualizations. This transformation allows you to analyze pricing trends and create dynamic dashboards that aggregate property values across your listings.
IDX Broker
Property Status (Active / Pending / Sold)
monday CRM
Listings Board Status column
1:1IDX Broker listing statuses map to Monday Status column values. Active listings appear as Open items, Pending as Working on it, and Sold as Complete — or your custom status labels are preserved if the board is configured to match.
IDX Broker
Property Agent / Listing Agent
monday CRM
Listings Board Link to People / Owner column
1:1The IDX Broker agent assigned to a listing links to a Monday workspace member by email match. If the agent does not yet exist in Monday as a workspace member, we create a People record for them and link it to the listing before the full migration runs.
IDX Broker
Property MLS ID
monday CRM
Listings Board Text column
1:1The MLS listing identifier from IDX Broker is stored as a plain text column on the Listings board item, preserving the original MLS reference for audit and re-syncing purposes. This maintains a direct link back to the source MLS system, enabling future data reconciliation or feed re-synchronization with your MLS provider.
IDX Broker
Saved Search / Lead Search Preference
monday CRM
Custom Board or Archive
1:1IDX Broker saved searches represent buyer preference data tied to contacts. Monday CRM has no native saved-search object — we preserve the data as a text note on the contact's People record for reference. Rebuilding saved-search logic requires a separate custom board or a monday sky workflow.
IDX Broker
Lead Source
monday CRM
People Board Text or Labels column
1:1Lead source (Organic, IDX Website, Referral, etc.) from IDX Broker migrates as a text column or Labels column on the People board. This field is used to segment contacts in Monday dashboards and automations. Understanding where leads originate helps optimize marketing spend and refine outreach strategies based on source performance.
IDX Broker
IDX Broker Agent
monday CRM
Monday Workspace Member
1:1Agents in IDX Broker are matched to Monday workspace members by email address. Unmatched agents are flagged before migration so your team can invite them to the Monday workspace or reassign their records to an existing member. This ensures all agent-to-listing relationships are properly maintained during the transition.
IDX Broker
Contact-Property Association
monday CRM
Listings Board Relation Column / Item Linking
1:1IDX Broker links contacts to saved listings through internal IDs. In Monday CRM we use the relation column to link People to their associated Listings items. We deliver the linking plan before migration — you decide whether to link one primary listing or all saved listings per contact.

Migration approach
Extract full data export from IDX Broker API
FlitStack AI authenticates against the IDX Broker API and pulls all accessible contacts, property listings, and agent records. We paginate through IDX Broker's endpoints to handle any response-size limits, storing the raw export as structured JSON before transformation begins. If your IDX Broker plan restricts certain endpoints, we flag the gap and advise on whether a supplemental manual export is needed before the migration plan is finalized.
Design Monday CRM board structure and custom columns
Before data moves, FlitStack AI delivers a Monday board setup plan based on your IDX Broker data model. We specify which boards to create (People board for contacts, Listings board for properties), which column types to use for each field, and how to configure relation columns linking contacts to their saved listings. You create the boards in Monday — or we do it on your behalf — so the schema is ready before validation.
Resolve agents to Monday workspace members by email
IDX Broker agents are matched against Monday workspace members by email address. Agents without a Monday account are flagged — you can invite them to the workspace, assign them to an existing member, or create People records for them as a temporary holding place. No listing item lands without a resolved owner link. This resolution step ensures that every property listing in Monday has a designated owner from the start, preventing orphaned records and maintaining accountability across your real estate data.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 100–300 records migrates first — covering contacts, listings, and at least one agent relationship. We generate a field-level diff report showing every source value, its mapped Monday column, and any transformation applied. You verify that address splits, price formatting, status mappings, and agent links are correct before the full run commits. This pilot phase allows us to catch any mapping inconsistencies early and confirm that data translates properly across both systems.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup cutover window
The full dataset loads into Monday CRM in batched API calls within your plan's rate limits. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any new contacts or listing updates created in IDX Broker during the migration run. FlitStack AI logs every operation to an audit trail. One-click rollback reverts the Monday workspace to its pre-migration state if reconciliation finds unexpected data gaps.
