Overview
Moving from Legrand Cloud CRM to Monday.com CRM is a structural migration that requires translating Legrand's module-based data model into Monday.com's board-and-column architecture. Legrand Cloud CRM has no publicly documented API, so we extract via the built-in Excel export function and a browser-accessible data layer, then load into Monday.com through the REST API with batch chunking and lookup resolution. Monday.com does not have native equivalents for every Legrand object type, so we map Accounts to People and Company boards, Opportunities to Deal boards with custom columns for stage and value, and Service Desk Tickets to a separate Work Management board. We do not migrate Legrand workflows, sequences, or automations; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild in Monday.com's automation builder. Attachment exports from Legrand arrive as individual files per record rather than a contiguous archive, and we script a rename pass to preserve parent-record linkage during import.
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 Legrand Cloud CRM 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.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Companies (Accounts)
monday CRM
People Board + Companies Board
1:1Legrand Companies map to a Companies board in Monday.com CRM. Each Company record becomes an item with columns for company name, address fields, type, industry, owner, and any custom fields. We use the company name as the dedupe key during import and resolve the Legrand owner email to a Monday.com team member by match before the Company import phase begins.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Contacts
monday CRM
People Board
1:1Legrand Contacts map to the People board in Monday.com CRM. Each Contact item includes name, email, phone, role, and the linked Company via a connect boards column or text reference field. We ingest Companies before Contacts so that the parent linkage is established at the moment of Contact insert. Any custom fields on the Contact module become custom columns on the People board.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Lead Inbox
monday CRM
People Board (as leads)
1:1Legrand's Lead Inbox module maps to a dedicated leads view or a separate lead status column on the People board. Lead source, status, and owner fields migrate as custom columns. Custom lead fields require manual field-level mapping to Monday column types during board configuration. We flag any lead-specific fields that have no Monday CRM equivalent and note them as manual-entry fields post-migration.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Opportunities
monday CRM
Deals Board
1:1Legrand Opportunities map to the Deals board in Monday.com CRM. Pipeline stage names become Monday column values in the Status or custom Stage column. Deal value, expected close date, and owner migrate as numeric, date, and person columns respectively. Closed-won and closed-lost reasons from Legrand custom properties migrate as text columns on the deal item.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Pipeline Stages
monday CRM
Status Column or Custom Stage Column
lossyEach Legrand pipeline becomes a separate Deals board or a board with multiple status columns scoped by pipeline name. Stage probability percentages from Legrand migrate as a numeric column or are noted as manual configuration in Monday.com since Monday's Deal tracking does not natively support probability per stage at the board level without custom integration.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Jobs (Professional plan)
monday CRM
Work Management Board
1:1Legrand Jobs module records map to a Work Management board in Monday.com, with columns for job status, assigned user, linked customer, and job type. Job status values from Legrand become Monday.com Status column values. We map the linked customer reference to a text field pointing to the corresponding Company item on the Companies board.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Service Desk Tickets
monday CRM
Work Management Board (Tickets)
1:1Legrand Service Desk tickets map to a dedicated ticketing board in Monday.com. Board assignment, ticket status, age, and custom fields migrate as columns. We note that Legrand internal agent comments do not export via the standard Excel export, so we flag comment history as a supplemental data pass and advise the customer to run a separate comments report before migration cutover.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Documents
monday CRM
File Attachment Column or Integration
1:1Legrand Documents export as individual files per record with no folder hierarchy preserved. We run a bulk-rename script to prepend the parent record identifier (ContactID or CompanyID) to each filename so files can be associated to the correct item in Monday.com. The renamed files are then attached via the Monday.com file column type or uploaded to the connected Google Drive or SharePoint integration.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Activities (Calendar/Emails)
monday CRM
Activity Column or Activity Timeline
1:1Legrand email and calendar integrations store activity history as individual text files per activity. We separate email bodies from attachments, parse the timestamp and participant information, and migrate as Activity items on a dedicated board linked to the relevant Contact or Company via connect boards column. We do not migrate email threads as threaded conversations since Monday.com does not have a native email threading model.
Legrand Cloud CRM
Campaigns
monday CRM
Work Management Board (Campaigns)
1:1Legrand Campaign records map to a Campaign board in Monday.com with columns for campaign name, type, status, and target member count. Campaign member associations export as a separate sheet from Legrand and merge into the Campaign board's person column or a linked People group. We flag campaign member data volume during scoping since large member lists may require segmentation.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export preparation
We audit the Legrand Cloud CRM portal to document module count, record volumes per module, custom field schema, pipeline count, active integrations, and attachment volume. We confirm which Legrand plan the customer is on (Starter, Standard, or Professional) to identify any tier-gated modules. We prepare the export runbook for each module, sequencing dependency order to satisfy parent-record lookups. We also configure the destination Monday.com workspace, create the CRM boards (People, Companies, Deals) and any required Work Management boards, and configure column types to match the Legrand custom field schema.
Manual export pass and data validation
We run the Legrand built-in Excel export per module in dependency order: Companies first, then Contacts, then Opportunities, then Jobs, Service Desk Tickets, and Activities. We validate record counts against the export log after each module pass. We audit the exported CSV for data quality issues including missing required fields, inconsistent date formats, and duplicate records. Any data quality issues are resolved in the source system or flagged for customer decision before transformation begins.
Attachment bulk-rename and folder reconstruction
We extract all document and email attachments from Legrand using the per-record export. We run a bulk-rename script to prepend the parent record identifier to each filename, preserving the ability to associate files with the correct Contact, Company, or Opportunity during Monday.com import. We document the original folder structure from Legrand metadata for manual reconstruction in Monday.com's connected file storage if the folder hierarchy is business-critical.
Transformation and Monday.com column mapping
We transform exported records to match Monday.com column types. Company names become item titles. Owner emails are resolved to Monday.com team members. Legrand pipeline stage names map to Monday.com Status column values. Custom fields are mapped to the corresponding Monday column type (text, number, date, person, or tags). Multi-select fields from Legrand are exploded into Monday.com tags or separate select columns. Any fields with no Monday.com equivalent are flagged as manual-entry items and excluded from the automated migration.
Sandbox migration and board design validation
We run a full migration into a test workspace in Monday.com using production-like data volume. The customer's team lead reviews record counts, spot-checks 20-30 random records against the Legrand source, and validates that board structure and column configuration meet team expectations. Any mapping corrections or column type adjustments happen in this phase. Board design sign-off is required before production migration begins.
Production migration and cutover
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies, then Contacts (with parent company linkage established), then Opportunities (with owner and pipeline resolved), then Jobs and Service Desk tickets, then activity history and attachments. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We freeze Legrand write access during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the window, and validate Monday.com record counts match the source export totals. We deliver a written automation inventory document for the customer's admin to rebuild Legrand workflow rules in Monday.com's automation builder.
