Overview
Livespace CRM organises data around Persons linked to Companies, with Deals scoped to configurable Spaces that model each team's unique non-linear sales process. Salesforce separates unqualified prospects into Leads and qualified buyers into Contacts attached to Accounts within a linear Pipeline model. We resolve the Space-to-Pipeline split by mapping each Livespace Space to a Salesforce Record Type and Sales Process, preserving stage probabilities and custom field values. We reconstruct deal-stage histories, task assignments, and custom field schemas through Livespace's REST API, which requires SHA1-signed rotating session tokens available only on Automation and above plans. Attachments and email sequences have no API endpoint and are flagged as manual pre-migration steps. Workflows, automation rules, and sequence memberships do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Salesforce Flow.
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 Livespace CRM object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, 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
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead or Contact (split required)
1:manyLivespace Persons with a defined lifecycle stage of customer or evangelist map to Salesforce Contact attached to an Account. Persons with a lifecycle stage of prospect, marketing qualified lead, or unregistered visitor map to Salesforce Lead. The split rule is defined during scoping based on the customer's Livespace lifecycle configuration. We preserve the original Livespace lifecycle stage in a custom field on both Lead and Contact for audit and reporting continuity.
Livespace CRM
Company
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1Livespace Company records map directly to Salesforce Account. The company domain becomes the Account Website field and is used as the dedupe key during import. Account is created before any Person import so that the AccountId Lookup relationship is satisfied at the moment of Contact or Lead insert. If the customer uses multiple Spaces with shared Companies, we deduplicate at the Account level to avoid creating duplicate Account records.
Livespace CRM
Deal
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1Livespace Deals map to Salesforce Opportunity. The Livespace deal stage maps to Salesforce StageName, and the Space assignment maps to a Salesforce Record Type and Sales Process that we configure before migration. Deal value, owner, expected close date, and timestamps migrate directly. Closed-Won and Closed-Lost dates and reasons from Livespace custom fields become Salesforce CloseDate and Loss Reason fields.
Livespace CRM
Space
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Record Type + Sales Process
lossyLivespace Spaces are independent working environments with their own deal stage pipelines. Each Space maps to a Salesforce Record Type on Opportunity, with a corresponding Sales Process that whitelists only the relevant stage values. Stage probability percentages migrate from Livespace to Salesforce StageProbability. Multi-Space accounts require the customer to decide whether to consolidate Spaces into fewer Record Types or maintain the full separation; we document the decision during scoping and implement per the agreed design.
Livespace CRM
Task
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task
1:1Livespace Tasks (assignable work items linked to Deals or Persons) map to Salesforce Task records. Status, Priority, due date, owner, and body text migrate directly. Completed versus open task states are preserved. Task assignment migrates by resolving the Livespace user reference to the Salesforce OwnerId via the User mapping. Tasks linked to Deals resolve their WhatId to the migrated Opportunity ID during the Deal migration phase.
Livespace CRM
User
Salesforce Sales Cloud
User
1:1Livespace User records map to Salesforce User by email match. Role and team assignment from Livespace are noted for the customer's Salesforce admin to configure in profiles and permission sets. We do not migrate password hashes or two-factor authentication settings. Any Livespace User without a matching Salesforce User goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes.
Livespace CRM
Team
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Group (or custom object)
1:1Livespace Teams group Users and can be assigned as deal owners. If the destination Salesforce org uses the native Salesforce Group object for team grouping, we map Teams to Groups and team memberships to GroupMember records. Where the customer's workflow relies on team-level deal ownership rather than individual ownership, we create a custom Team__c object with a lookup to User to preserve the team assignment semantics beyond the native Group model.
Livespace CRM
Custom Field
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field
lossyLivespace additional and custom fields on Persons, Companies, and Deals are read via the Get custom fields endpoint before any data migration begins. We create equivalent Salesforce custom fields with matching API names and data types. Picklist values map directly; date fields are normalised to the Salesforce date format; multi-select picklists in Livespace map to Salesforce multi-select picklists. Any Livespace custom field with no Salesforce equivalent is created as a Text field with a migration note in the field mapping document.
Livespace CRM
Contact Group
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Campaign or List
1:1Livespace Contact Groups are static segment lists. We export group memberships during the Person export phase and create Salesforce Campaign records with CampaignMember records linking each migrated Lead or Contact to the appropriate Campaign. Dynamic Contact Groups that use filtering rules rather than static membership cannot be recreated programmatically; we document the filter criteria in the migration deliverable so the customer can build an equivalent Salesforce report or dynamic list post-migration.
Livespace CRM
Source
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field (Lead Source)
lossyLivespace Sources track where leads originated (web form, referral, event, cold outreach). We map source values to a custom Lead Source field on the Contact and a custom text field on the Lead. If Salesforce Professional or above is in use, we use the standard Lead Source picklist and normalise Livespace source values to the nearest Salesforce picklist entry, flagging any values that require a custom picklist entry.
Livespace CRM
Ticket
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Case
1:1Livespace Tickets migrate to Salesforce Case if the destination Salesforce org includes Service Cloud. Livespace ticket pipeline stages map to Case Record Types, and ticket status values map to Case Status picklist entries. Ticket conversation history migrates as EmailMessage records linked to the Case. If the destination org does not include Service Cloud, Tickets are mapped to custom Opportunity Task records or a custom Ticket__c object, with the customer's preference recorded during scoping.
Livespace CRM
Engagement: Email
Salesforce Sales Cloud
EmailMessage + Task
1:1Livespace email engagement records (visible through the API as activities linked to Persons or Deals) migrate to Salesforce EmailMessage records with the email body and metadata, linked to an Activity Task record for the timeline entry. WhoId on the Task points to the migrated Lead or Contact; WhatId points to the related Opportunity or Account. Email direction (sent vs received) is preserved in a custom EmailDirection field.
Livespace CRM
Engagement: Call
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task (TaskSubtype = Call)
1:1Livespace call engagements map to Salesforce Task with TaskSubtype = Call. Call disposition, duration, and any recording URL preserved in custom Task fields. Activity ordering is maintained by setting ActivityDate to the original Livespace timestamp. Call assignments migrate by resolving the Livespace owner reference to the Salesforce OwnerId.
Livespace CRM
Engagement: Note
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Note
1:1Livespace note engagements migrate to Salesforce Note records linked via ContentDocumentLink to the parent Person, Company, or Deal record at the destination. Rich text formatting in Livespace notes is preserved as Salesforce Note rich text. If the customer uses Salesforce Lightning Experience, Notes are migrated to ContentNote records to align with the modern content storage model.

Migration approach
Discovery and scoping
We audit the source Livespace account across Persons, Companies, Deals, Spaces, Tasks, Custom Fields, Contact Groups, and engagement volume. We confirm the Automation tier API access (Base tier accounts cannot use the API and require a pre-migration plan upgrade). We assess Salesforce edition requirements: Starter ($25/user) covers straightforward migrations; Professional ($80/user) is needed for Record Types, Sales Processes, and full custom objects; Enterprise ($165/user) is required for advanced territory management, Flow at scale, or complex sharing models. The discovery output is a written migration scope document and a Salesforce edition recommendation.
Schema design and Space-to-Record-Type mapping
We design the destination Salesforce schema. Each Livespace Space is mapped to a Salesforce Record Type and Sales Process. Custom fields from Livespace (retrieved via the Get custom fields endpoint) are created as Salesforce custom fields with matched data types and picklist values. We define the Person-to-Lead-or-Contact split rule based on the customer's Livespace lifecycle stage configuration. Schema is deployed to a Salesforce Sandbox via metadata API or change set before any data migration begins. The customer reviews and approves the schema design in Sandbox.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Salesforce Sandbox using production-like data volumes. The customer's RevOps lead reconciles record counts across all object types, spot-checks 25-50 random records against the Livespace source, and validates the Space-to-Record-Type mapping, custom field values, and activity timestamps. Any mapping corrections are made in the Sandbox, not in production. The customer signs off the Sandbox migration before we proceed to production.
Owner reconciliation and User provisioning
We extract every distinct Livespace User referenced as an owner on Person, Company, Deal, or Task records and match by email against the Salesforce destination org's User table. Any Livespace User without a matching Salesforce User goes to a reconciliation queue. The customer's Salesforce admin provisions any missing Users before record import resumes. This step is a hard dependency: OwnerId references are required on most standard objects, and unmapped owners will cause record insertion to fail.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Accounts (from Livespace Companies, first because all other objects depend on them), Contacts and Leads (with the lifecycle stage split applied), Opportunities (with RecordTypeId and AccountId resolved), Tasks and Events (via Bulk API for large volumes), EmailMessage records, Notes, Contact Groups (as Salesforce Campaigns), Custom Fields and Teams, and Custom Objects last. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Livespace Writes are frozen at cutover.
Cutover, validation, and handoff
We run a final delta migration for any records modified during the migration window, enable Salesforce as the system of record, and deliver the Space-to-Record-Type configuration summary and the Email Sequence inventory document to the customer's admin team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve reconciliation issues raised by the sales team. We do not rebuild Livespace workflows or sequences as Salesforce Flow inside the migration scope; that work is documented for the customer's admin or a Salesforce implementation partner.
