Overview
Moving from Livespace CRM to Pipedrive is a structural consolidation for teams that prefer Pipedrive's linear pipeline model over Livespace's configurable non-linear Spaces. Livespace organizes data around Persons (contacts) linked to Companies, with Deals scoped to Spaces that model each team's unique sales process; Pipedrive uses a single pipeline-centric view with Stages, Activities, and Organizations. We export via Livespace's REST API (available on Automation tier and above, requiring SHA1-signed session tokens with per-request expiry), map Persons to People, Companies to Organizations, Deals to Deals, and Spaces to Pipelines. Livespace's multi-Space model flattens into Pipedrive's single-pipeline view unless the team has configured separate Spaces for distinct business units, in which case we create multiple Pipelines. Custom field schemas are discovered pre-migration. Attachments cannot move via API and are flagged as a manual pre-step; email sequences have no API endpoint and are documented for manual rebuild. Workflows, task automations, and duplicate detection rules do not migrate as code; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Pipedrive.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Livespace CRM object lands in Pipedrive, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Livespace CRM
Person
Pipedrive
People
1:1Livespace Persons map directly to Pipedrive People. Standard fields (name, email, phone, address) migrate 1:1. The person's lifecycle_stage, source attribution, and any custom fields from the Get custom fields endpoint map to corresponding Pipedrive People custom fields. We resolve the Person-to-Company link and write the OrganizationId reference after Organizations are created.
Livespace CRM
Company
Pipedrive
Organization
1:1Livespace Companies map to Pipedrive Organizations. Company name becomes Organization name, domain fields map to website, and industry classification maps to a Pipedrive custom field if the destination has industry values configured. Organization is created before any Person import so that the org_id reference is satisfied at the moment of Person insert.
Livespace CRM
Deal
Pipedrive
Deal
1:1Livespace Deals map to Pipedrive Deals with the Space's pipeline stage mapping to the corresponding Pipedrive Stage within the target Pipeline. Deal value (numeric), currency, owner, expected_close_date, and stage_timestamps migrate directly. Custom deal fields from Livespace map to Pipedrive Deal custom fields. The deal-to-Space assignment determines which Pipedrive Pipeline receives the Deal.
Livespace CRM
Space
Pipedrive
Pipeline + Stage
1:manyLivespace Spaces define separate working environments or sales processes. Pipedrive uses Pipelines with Stages. If the Livespace account has one Space, it maps to one Pipedrive Pipeline with its configured Stages. If multiple Spaces exist, each Space maps to a separate Pipedrive Pipeline. Stage names and probabilities from the Livespace Space configuration are translated into Pipedrive Stage definitions during destination setup. Teams using Spaces to separate business units (e.g., Enterprise vs SMB) must decide whether to create separate Pipelines or consolidate into one — this decision is made during scoping.
Livespace CRM
Task
Pipedrive
Activity (Task)
1:1Livespace Tasks assignable to Deals or Persons map to Pipedrive Activities (type Task). Task subject, body text, status (open/closed), due date, and owner migrate. Completed vs open state is preserved as the Activity's completed flag. The task-to-deal link migrates as the Pipedrive Deal reference on the Activity record.
Livespace CRM
User
Pipedrive
User
1:1Livespace Users (licensed seats) map to Pipedrive Users resolved by email address match. Role and team assignment from Livespace maps to Pipedrive admin vs regular user role. We do not migrate password hashes or 2FA settings. Any Livespace User without a matching Pipedrive User (created during destination setup before migration begins) is placed in a reconciliation queue.
Livespace CRM
Team
Pipedrive
Team
1:1Livespace Teams group Users and can own Deals. Pipedrive Teams serve the same grouping function. Team membership is preserved as team-to-user assignments. Pipedrive Teams cannot be assigned as Deal owners directly — team-scoped deals must be reassigned to the team lead User record. Teams used purely for permissions in Livespace may need a role review in Pipedrive.
Livespace CRM
Custom Field Schema
Pipedrive
Custom Fields
lossyLivespace additional/hidden fields on Persons, Companies, and Deals are discovered via the Get custom fields endpoint at migration start. Each custom field's type (text, number, date, picklist, checkbox) maps to the corresponding Pipedrive custom field type. Picklist values are enumerated explicitly in the Pipedrive destination before migration so that the import does not reject values outside the allowed set. Date formats are normalised to ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD) to match Pipedrive's expected format.
Livespace CRM
Contact Group
Pipedrive
People Group
1:1Livespace Contact Groups (static segment lists) export from the Get contact group list endpoint. We create corresponding People Groups in Pipedrive and assign each Person to the relevant group memberships. Dynamic segments (if configured in Livespace) are noted as non-migratable and can be rebuilt as Pipedrive Filter views.
Livespace CRM
Source
Pipedrive
Custom Field on People
lossyLivespace Source values (web form, referral, event, etc.) are exported from the source list API and mapped as a custom field on the Pipedrive People record. Pipedrive does not have a native 'source' concept, so a single-select or text custom field carries the attribution data for reporting segmentation.
Livespace CRM
Attachment
Pipedrive
(Not migratable)
1:1Livespace does not expose file attachments via its public REST API. Attachments on Deals and Persons must be downloaded manually via the application UI before migration begins. We flag this as a mandatory pre-migration step in the runbook and exclude attachment records from the API-driven migration scope. Pipedrive accepts attachments via the Activity file upload API post-migration, but the source files must be in the customer's possession before cutover.
Livespace CRM
Email Sequence
Pipedrive
(Documented only)
1:1Livespace's email sequence builder exposes no public API endpoints. Sequence membership, step status, timing rules, and enrollment conditions cannot be read or migrated programmatically. We document the existing sequences (enrolled contacts, step count, delay between steps, and action types) in a written summary so the customer's admin can recreate them in Pipedrive's Campaigns automation feature (available on Advanced plan and above). This is not data loss — it is a source platform API limitation requiring manual rebuild.

Migration approach
Account tier verification and scoping
We confirm the Livespace account tier during discovery. The REST API is only available on Automation tier ($34/user/mo) and above. If the account is on Base tier, we cannot perform an API-driven migration and instead guide the customer through Livespace's manual CSV export, clean the exported files, and import into Pipedrive via CSV. We also inventory all Spaces, the stage definitions within each Space, custom field schemas (via Get custom fields endpoint), and the count of Persons, Companies, Deals, Tasks, and Contact Groups.
Destination schema design and Space-to-Pipeline mapping
We design the Pipedrive destination schema: Pipelines and Stages (mapped from Livespace Spaces), People and Organization custom fields (mapped from the Livespace custom field schema), and Activity types. If multiple Livespace Spaces represent distinct business units, we create separate Pipelines; if Spaces are informal labels, we consolidate into one Pipeline with a Space_name custom field on the Deal. The customer validates the destination schema before any data moves. Pipedrive does not have custom objects — any Livespace custom data structure that does not fit People/Organizations/Deals is documented as a gap with a recommended workaround.
Manual pre-steps and attachment flag
We instruct the customer to complete the mandatory manual pre-steps before the migration window: download all attachment files from Deals and Persons via the Livespace UI or manual export tool, and document existing email sequences (step count, enrolled Persons, delays, and action types) for the post-migration rebuild inventory. These steps are outside the API-driven scope and must be completed before FlitStack AI begins the record migration.
Test migration into Pipedrive sandbox
We run a full migration into a Pipedrive trial or sandbox environment using production-like data volume. The customer reconciles record counts, spot-checks 25-50 records against the Livespace source, and validates that custom field values, Deal values, owner assignments, and Space-to-Pipeline mappings are correct. Any mapping corrections — picklist value mismatches, custom field type errors, Space consolidation decisions — are applied here before production migration begins.
User provisioning and owner reconciliation
We extract every distinct Livespace User referenced on Person, Company, Deal, and Task records and match by email against the Pipedrive destination's User table. Any Livespace User without a matching Pipedrive User is placed in a reconciliation queue — the customer's Pipedrive admin provisions missing Users (active or inactive depending on whether the original user is still employed). OwnerId references are required on Pipedrive standard object imports; migration cannot proceed past this step without all owner references resolved.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Organizations (from Companies), People (with OrganizationId resolved), Pipelines and Stages (configured in destination, then Deals migrated into the correct Pipeline), Activities (Tasks mapped from Livespace Tasks with deal reference), and Contact Group memberships. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. SHA1 token rotation is handled automatically — we detect 401 responses, re-authenticate, and retry the failed batch. Custom fields migrate last after base object records are confirmed in the destination.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze Livespace writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Pipedrive as the system of record. We deliver the email sequence inventory document and the Livespace Workflow/automation summary for manual rebuild in Pipedrive's Campaigns feature. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any data quality issues raised by the customer's sales team. Post-migration admin support, training, and Pipedrive automation rebuild are outside standard scope and available as a separate engagement.
