Overview
Moving from Makesbridge to Monday.com CRM is a platform-category shift: Makesbridge is a marketing automation and mass-email tool where the primary object is the Subscriber; Monday.com CRM is a visual work-management platform extended with CRM primitives (People, Companies, Deals, Activities). The object mapping is not 1:1. We map Makesbridge Subscribers to Monday.com People records, preserving custom field values and Hot List priority assignments as Tags. Makesbridge Lists map to Monday.com Tags or Groups within a Board. Makesbridge Campaigns, Workflows, Templates, Forms, and Lead Scores do not migrate as code; we deliver structured documentation of each so the customer's admin can rebuild them in Monday.com's automation builder. The absence of a bulk export API in Makesbridge means we paginate through individual subscriber calls, which extends migration timelines proportionally with list size. We sequence the import so that Monday.com Boards and Groups are provisioned before any Subscriber records land, satisfying the dependency before the first write.
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 Makesbridge 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.
Makesbridge
Subscriber
monday CRM
People
1:1Makesbridge Subscribers map to Monday.com People records. Standard fields (first name, last name, email, phone) transfer directly. Custom field values map to Monday.com column types: text custom fields map to Text columns, numeric fields map to Number columns, date fields map to Date columns, and picklist fields map to Dropdown or Tags columns. We validate field type compatibility during scoping and flag any Makesbridge field type (e.g., complex multi-select formats) that requires transformation before import. Subscriber status (active, unsubscribed, bounced) maps to the Email Status column in Monday.com People.
Makesbridge
Hot List
monday CRM
Tags
lossyMakesbridge Hot Lists represent high-priority subscribers surfaced by the lead scoring engine. We export Hot List memberships at migration time and apply a corresponding Tag (e.g., 'Hot Lead', 'Priority A') to each Subscriber's Monday.com People record. The tag name is configurable during scoping to match the customer's naming convention. Hot List membership is a flag assignment, not a separate record type in Monday.com.
Makesbridge
List
monday CRM
Tags or Board Groups
lossyMakesbridge Lists are named audience groups. We export the full list membership and map each List to a Monday.com Tag applied to all corresponding People records. If the customer uses Lists as campaign targeting groups, we recommend Board-level Groups in a dedicated Audience Board as an alternative structure. The choice is made during scoping based on how the customer uses Lists day-to-day.
Makesbridge
Segment
monday CRM
Tags (snapshot)
1:1Makesbridge Segments are dynamic rule-based subsets of Lists. The rule definitions are not exportable from Makesbridge. We export the evaluated subscriber set at migration time as a static snapshot and apply Tags to the corresponding Monday.com People records. The customer should plan to recreate segment rules in Monday.com using the exported Tags as a starting filter.
Makesbridge
Campaign
monday CRM
Activity Record or Archive Item
1:1Makesbridge Campaigns (email sends and sequences) map partially to Monday.com. Campaign metadata (name, subject line, send date, aggregate open rate, click rate, send count) is exported as structured records and can be stored in a Campaign Activity Board as archive Items with column values for metrics. The HTML email content is preserved as a text attachment or document reference. Individual open and click events are not accessible via Makesbridge API and cannot be migrated.
Makesbridge
Custom Field
monday CRM
Columns
lossyMakesbridge custom field schema is retrieved via API and mapped to Monday.com column types during Board setup. Text fields map to Text columns, numeric fields to Number columns, dates to Date columns, and multi-value fields to Dropdown or Tags columns. We validate Makesbridge field types against Monday.com's supported column types before import and flag any unsupported type that requires pre-transformation (e.g., phone-number format fields that need reformatting). Schema provisioning happens before any Subscriber records are imported.
Makesbridge
Workflow
monday CRM
Automation (documented for rebuild)
1:1Makesbridge Workflows are text-based automation sequences with enrollment triggers and delays. The workflow logic is not exportable in a machine-readable format and cannot be directly re-imported into Monday.com's automation builder. We extract and document each workflow's step sequence, trigger conditions, delays, and actions as a structured migration artifact. The customer's admin rebuilds the automations in Monday.com's visual builder using the documentation; our professional services team can handle the rebuild as a separate engagement.
Makesbridge
Template
monday CRM
Template (documented for rebuild)
1:1Makesbridge email templates (HTML content and drag-and-drop layouts) are exported as HTML files with metadata. Monday.com does not have a native email template library as a CRM feature. We preserve the template HTML so the customer can reconstruct compatible layouts in Monday.com's integrations (e.g., connected email tools like Gmail or Outlook) or a dedicated email marketing platform if marketing automation remains separate.
Makesbridge
Form
monday CRM
Integration form (documented for rebuild)
1:1Makesbridge Forms capture new subscriber records. Form structure and field mappings are exported and documented. Monday.com's native form builder (available via integrations or third-party form tools connected via Zapier/Make) replaces Forms. We provide the field mapping reference so the customer can connect a replacement form directly to the Monday.com Board.
Makesbridge
Lead Score
monday CRM
Number Column on People
1:1Makesbridge computes lead scores per Subscriber based on behavior and data triggers. We export the current score value as a numeric field and write it to a Number column on each Monday.com People record at migration time. This is a static snapshot; Monday.com does not have a native lead scoring engine, so ongoing scoring logic must be recreated using Monday.com automations or a third-party scoring tool post-migration.

Makesbridge gotchas
Iframe-based Salesforce integration causes field sync misalignment
No bulk export API — large subscriber lists take multiple sessions
Workflows are not programmatically portable
Activity history is not accessible via API
Segment logic cannot be exported — only evaluated member sets
monday CRM gotchas
Subitems are not included in bulk exports
Daily API call limits vary sharply by plan
Legacy automations (Sentence Builder) are being deprecated
Excel and account exports only include table views
Enterprise admins can disable non-admin exports
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and inventory scoping
We audit the Makesbridge account across all objects: Subscriber count and schema (standard plus custom fields), List memberships, Hot List names and sizes, Segment names, Campaign count and aggregate metrics, Workflow names and step counts, Template count, and Form count. We pair this with a review of the destination Monday.com CRM workspace: existing Boards, plan tier (which determines available column types), and any existing People or Deal records. The discovery output is a written migration scope document covering what migrates, what documents, and what requires rebuild.
Schema design and Monday.com Board provisioning
We design the destination structure in Monday.com before any data is written. This includes provisioning a CRM Board with People columns mapped to Makesbridge custom field types, creating Tags for Hot List priority levels and List memberships, setting up any Campaign Activity Board for aggregate metric archival, and configuring the Email Status column for subscriber lifecycle states. Monday.com Board and Group provisioning happens via the Monday.com application interface or API before the first Subscriber record is imported.
Custom field type validation and transformation
We validate Makesbridge custom field types against Monday.com's supported column types for the customer's plan tier. Any field type that requires transformation (e.g., phone number formatting, date format standardization, multi-value delimiter normalization) is pre-processed before the API import. This step prevents silent type coercion errors where a Makesbridge text field containing numeric values gets misclassified as a Number column with unexpected precision or formatting.
Paginated subscriber export with parallel session handling
We extract all Subscribers from Makesbridge using the individual-get API, running parallel sessions within documented best practices to reduce wall-clock time for large lists. Each Subscriber record is enriched with its List memberships (as Tags), Hot List assignments (as priority Tags), Segment snapshots (as Tags), and Lead Score values (as a Number column). Records are held in a staging dataset until the Monday.com Board schema is validated and signed off.
Monday.com People import and Tag application
We import Subscriber records into Monday.com People using the GraphQL API with complexity-managed batch operations and exponential backoff on rate-limit responses. Each record receives its assigned Tags (Hot List priority, List membership, Segment snapshot) at the time of import. The import order is governed by Monday.com's dependency rules: People must exist before Tags referencing them can be applied. We run row-count reconciliation after import to confirm every Makesbridge Subscriber has a corresponding Monday.com People record.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze Makesbridge writes during cutover, run a final delta scan for any records modified during the migration window, and deliver the completed Monday.com workspace with all People, Tags, and custom column values verified. We deliver the Workflow and Template documentation artifact to the customer's admin for rebuild in Monday.com's automation builder. We support a three-day post-cutover window for reconciliation issues. Monday.com automations, Workflows, Forms, and email template reconstruction are outside standard scope; we provide documentation and a separate rebuild engagement option.
