Overview
Moving from Legrand Cloud CRM to GoHighLevel is a migration from a platform with no documented public API to one with a fully documented REST API, which changes the extraction and import mechanics fundamentally. Legrand Cloud CRM exports data through a per-module Excel export function with no bulk API, which means attachments export as individual files rather than archives, and internal Service Desk comments live in a separate data partition outside the standard export. We work around these constraints with a structured multi-pass export: Accounts first, then Contacts with their parent-account linkage, then Opportunities with owner assignment, then subordinate objects. GoHighLevel receives via its Contact and Company import API, and we pre-create all custom fields before importing data so that field type and folder assignments are correct from the start. GoHighLevel workflows, automations, and pipeline triggers do not migrate as code; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild inside GoHighLevel's workflow builder.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Legrand Cloud 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.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Companies
HighLevel
Company
1:1Legrand Companies map to GoHighLevel Companies. We export the Companies module first because Contacts have a required parent-account linkage. Company name, address fields, type, and owner assignment transfer directly. GoHighLevel's Company import requires the API or CSV upload with the Company Name as the dedupe key; we set the import order so Company records are confirmed before any Contact batch begins.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Contacts
HighLevel
Contact
1:1Legrand Contacts map to GoHighLevel Contacts. The parent-company linkage (CompanyID or company name) resolves to the GoHighLevel Company record via lookup at migration time. We preserve full name, email, phone, role, and any custom contact fields by pre-creating matching GoHighLevel Contact custom fields before the import pass. Tags in GoHighLevel replace Legrand's contact category labels if the customer uses a tagging taxonomy.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Opportunities
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1Legrand Opportunities map to GoHighLevel Opportunities. Stage, deal value, expected close date, and owner assignment transfer directly. GoHighLevel pipeline stages must be pre-created in the destination account before import; we configure the pipeline with stages named to match Legrand's stage vocabulary or map them to the customer's preferred GoHighLevel stage names. Owner resolution uses email matching against GoHighLevel Users.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Pipeline Stages
HighLevel
Pipeline Status
lossyEach Legrand Opportunity stage becomes a GoHighLevel Pipeline Status value. Probability percentages from Legrand transfer as metadata on the status; GoHighLevel does not enforce stage probability the way Salesforce does, but we populate the field for any reporting the customer builds. Stages are created before any Opportunity import so the import can reference valid status IDs.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Lead Inbox
HighLevel
Contact or Opportunity (by status)
1:manyLegrand's Lead Inbox module stores unqualified prospects. We split leads by status at migration time: leads with a status indicating they progressed to a sales-qualified stage map to GoHighLevel Opportunities, while unqualified inbound leads map to GoHighLevel Contacts tagged with a lead source field. Custom lead fields from the Inbox module require matching GoHighLevel Contact custom fields pre-created before import.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Jobs
HighLevel
Opportunity (or Custom Object)
lossyLegrand's Jobs module (Cloud Professional and above) tracks flat-rate or hourly services. We map Job status to GoHighLevel Opportunity stage or a custom Job status field depending on the customer's usage. If the customer tracks jobs as a distinct record type from sales pipeline opportunities, we create a GoHighLevel Custom Object with status and linked customer fields. Job billing data (hours, rate) migrates as custom numeric fields on the mapped object.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Service Desk Tickets
HighLevel
Contact or Pipeline Note
1:1Legrand Service Desk tickets map to GoHighLevel Contacts with a note capturing ticket details (board, status, custom fields, linked asset). Internal agent comments do not appear in Legrand's standard Excel export and require a separate comments report pass. We flag this in the discovery phase and include the internal comments as a supplemental data pass with a flag in GoHighLevel noting the comment origin. GoHighLevel does not have a native ticketing board equivalent; the customer rebuilds the board view using Pipeline status and custom fields.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Assets
HighLevel
Custom Object
1:1Legrand Asset Tracking (add-on module) maps to a GoHighLevel Custom Object named Assets with fields for serial number, linked customer, service history, and any custom asset fields. The Asset-to-Ticket linkage in Legrand becomes a text reference field in GoHighLevel because GoHighLevel Custom Objects do not natively support cross-object lookup the way Legrand's Asset-to-Ticket link does.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Documents
HighLevel
Contact Document or Note
1:1Legrand Documents export as individual files per record rather than a folder archive. We script a bulk-rename pass to add the parent record identifier to each filename so files can be associated to the correct Contact during import. GoHighLevel stores files as attachments on the relevant record; we upload them via the API after the parent Contact or Company record exists. Folder hierarchy is reconstructed from the document metadata rather than imported directly.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Activities (Calendar/Emails)
HighLevel
Activity or Note
1:1Legrand email threads and calendar events export as individual text files per activity rather than threaded conversations. We separate email bodies from attachments, map email body content to GoHighLevel Notes on the Contact record, and link attachments separately. Calendar events from the Legrand Calendar module migrate as GoHighLevel Tasks with the appointment time preserved in the task due date field and a note body capturing the event description.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Custom Fields
HighLevel
Custom Field
lossyLegrand custom fields per module require individual mapping to GoHighLevel Contact custom fields or Opportunity custom fields. We audit the customer's Legrand custom field schema during discovery, then pre-create the equivalent GoHighLevel fields before any data import. GoHighLevel does not allow field type changes after creation; we confirm the field type with the customer before creating. Fields that exist on both Contact and Opportunity in Legrand must be created twice in GoHighLevel under each object type.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export readiness assessment
We audit the source Legrand Cloud CRM account across plan tier, object inventory, custom field schema, and record counts per module. We confirm whether the account is on Cloud Starter (which constrains migration scope due to 500MB storage and 10,000-record limits) or Cloud Professional/Standard. We identify the Jobs module status, Service Desk usage, Asset Tracking usage, and any active accounting sync that may leave residual data in Legrand. The output is a written migration scope document with a confirmed object list and record counts, plus a GoHighLevel plan recommendation based on sub-account and feature requirements.
GoHighLevel custom field pre-creation
Before any data import, we create all required GoHighLevel Contact custom fields and Opportunity custom fields to match the Legrand custom field schema. We use the object selector in GoHighLevel Settings to create fields under each object type separately, assign them to folders for organization, and confirm field types (text, number, date, dropdown, checkbox) with the customer before finalizing. This step prevents the import from landing in default fields or failing due to mismatched types, which would require a re-import correction.
Legrand multi-pass export in dependency order
We run the Legrand export in dependency order: Companies first (to establish parent-account records), then Contacts (with CompanyID linkage resolved), then Opportunities (with owner email matching to GoHighLevel Users), then Jobs (if present), then Service Desk tickets (with a separate internal comments report pass), then Assets, then Activities and Documents. Each export pass is validated against the Legrand export log for record count accuracy. Attachment files receive a bulk-rename script to add the parent record identifier to each filename so file-to-record association is preserved during GoHighLevel import.
Owner and user reconciliation
We extract every distinct owner email from Legrand (Companies, Contacts, Opportunities, Jobs, Tickets) and match against GoHighLevel Users by email. Any owner without a matching GoHighLevel User enters a reconciliation queue; the customer provisions the missing Users before record import resumes. If the customer uses Legrand's Lead Inbox, we also flag any Leads that lack an owner and assign them to a designated admin User in GoHighLevel as a temporary placeholder.
GoHighLevel pipeline and status configuration
We configure the GoHighLevel Pipeline with status values that map to Legrand's Opportunity stages. If the customer uses multiple Legrand pipelines for different product lines, we create separate GoHighLevel Pipelines or use Pipeline Tags to distinguish them. Stage probabilities from Legrand migrate as informational metadata; we confirm the customer's preferred stage naming and ordering with the GoHighLevel admin before import begins.
Production import with reconciliation
We run production import in dependency order: Companies, then Contacts, then Opportunities, then Jobs, then Service Desk data, then Assets, then Activities and Documents. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report comparing the Legrand export log to the GoHighLevel import result. We resolve duplicates (by email for Contacts, by Company name for Companies, by deal name plus stage for Opportunities) before the next phase begins. After all standard objects are confirmed, we run the supplemental data passes for internal comments and attachment files.
Cutover and automation inventory delivery
We freeze Legrand Cloud CRM writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then hand off GoHighLevel as the system of record. We deliver the automation and workflow inventory document to the customer's GoHighLevel admin, covering every Legrand workflow, pipeline rule, and reporting view with a GoHighLevel Automation equivalent recommendation. We provide a one-week hypercare window to resolve any reconciliation issues. Workflow rebuild, sequence recreation, and GoHighLevel training are outside standard scope and can be scoped as a separate engagement.
