Overview
mQuest is a survey or quest-management platform — it holds users, quest definitions, quest assignments, response data, and engagement history. Salesforce Sales Cloud has no native survey object; all mQuest quest logic and response data must become Salesforce custom objects (__c) with custom fields, while users map directly to Contacts and engagement records map to Tasks and Events. The migration carries everything mQuest stores natively — users, assignments, responses, progress percentages, timestamps, and owners — into Salesforce's schema. The harder problems are mapping mQuest's quest-assignment structure to Salesforce's custom-object + lookup model, handling custom fields without Salesforce equivalents as __c fields, preserving progress and status data as custom pick-lists and numbers, and rebuilding mQuest workflows, quest rules, and automations in Salesforce Flow from scratch. FlitStack AI sequences the migration so foreign keys resolve correctly: Contacts first (via mQuest user email), then custom assignment and response objects with lookups to Contact. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any quests created or responses submitted during cutover. Workflows, quest logic, and automation sequences do not migrate — we export mQuest definitions as a rebuild reference for your Salesforce admin.
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 mQuest 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.
mQuest
User
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1mQuest users map directly to Salesforce Contacts. Email is the match key for owner resolution — FlitStack AI matches mQuest user email against Salesforce usernames. Unmatched users are flagged before migration so your team can either invite them or assign to a fallback Contact.
mQuest
User Role / Department
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact.Title + Custom Field (User_Role__c)
many:1mQuest stores role and department information on each user record. These two attributes merge into the Contact object: job role maps to the native Contact.Title field, while department maps to Contact.Department. Since Salesforce Contacts lack a native role field, FlitStack surfaces role data as a custom text field called User_Role__c for segmentation and reporting purposes.
mQuest
Quest
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quest__c (custom object)
1:1mQuest quest definitions — quest name, description, category, and quest type — map to a Salesforce custom object (Quest__c). The standard Salesforce Name field holds the quest name. Category and type migrate as custom pick-list fields (Quest_Category__c, Quest_Type__c) on the custom object.
mQuest
Quest_Assignment
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quest_Assignment__c (custom object)
1:1Quest assignments track which user is assigned to which quest. In Salesforce, these become a custom object named Quest_Assignment__c that serves as a junction between users and quests. It includes a lookup field to Contact (named User__c) and a lookup field to Quest__c (named Quest__c), preserving the N:1 assignment relationship that mQuest supports natively.
mQuest
Quest_Assignment Status
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quest_Assignment__c.Status__c (custom pick-list)
1:1mQuest assignment statuses such as Not Started, In Progress, Completed, and Overdue map directly to a custom pick-list field (Status__c) on Quest_Assignment__c. Each status value from mQuest becomes an exact pick-list option in Salesforce, preserving all reporting continuity without any value transformation or renaming.
mQuest
Quest_Response / Submission
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quest_Response__c (custom object)
1:1Individual quest responses or submissions map to a custom object (Quest_Response__c) linked to Quest_Assignment__c. Response text, scores, and file attachments migrate as fields on this object. If mQuest stores response history, FlitStack preserves it as multiple Quest_Response__c records per assignment.
mQuest
Quest Progress / Score
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quest_Assignment__c.Progress_Pct__c (custom number)
1:1mQuest progress percentage or score maps to a custom number field (Progress_Pct__c) on Quest_Assignment__c. For mQuest systems that track a numeric score rather than a percentage, FlitStack stores the raw value and applies any required normalization based on the source scale.
mQuest
Email Engagement
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task (Type=Email)
1:1Email activities tracked in mQuest—those linked to quest assignments or user records—migrate as Salesforce Tasks with Type=Email. Subject, body, timestamp, and owner are all preserved from the source record. Each Task links to the corresponding Contact record so email history surfaces in the Salesforce activity timeline and contact reports.
mQuest
Call / Meeting Engagement
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task (Type=Call) / Event
1:1Call records from mQuest map to Salesforce Tasks using Type=Call, preserving subject and duration. Meeting records migrate as Salesforce Events with original start and end times intact. Both task and event records link to the Contact associated with the original mQuest user.
mQuest
Quest Notes / Attachments
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Note / ContentDocument (Salesforce Files)
1:1mQuest notes on quest assignments or responses migrate as Salesforce Notes (not the legacy Note object). File attachments re-upload to Salesforce Files, with the original file name and content type preserved. Inline images in notes are downloaded and re-hosted in Salesforce.
mQuest
Created Date / Updated Date
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Original_Create_Date__c / Original_Modified_Date__c (custom datetime)
1:1Salesforce automatically sets CreatedDate and LastModifiedDate at migration time, overwriting original timestamps. To preserve audit continuity and historical reporting accuracy, FlitStack AI extracts mQuest's original create and modification timestamps and stores them as custom datetime fields named Original_Create_Date__c and Original_Modified_Date__c on each record.
mQuest
mQuest Workflow / Automation
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Flow / Process Builder
1:1mQuest workflows, quest routing rules, conditional logic, and automation sequences have no direct Salesforce equivalent. FlitStack AI exports mQuest workflow definitions as a structured document that your Salesforce admin can use to rebuild equivalent logic in Flow and Process Builder.
mQuest
mQuest Custom Fields (any)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Custom Fields (__c)
1:1Any mQuest custom fields added beyond the standard schema become Salesforce custom fields with the __c suffix on the appropriate object. FlitStack AI inventories all custom fields during discovery and preps a Salesforce field creation plan so the custom schema is ready before the migration run.
mQuest
mQuest Integrations / Connections
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Connected Apps / AppExchange
1:1mQuest third-party integrations (webhooks, API connections, linked tools) do not migrate to Salesforce. Each integration must be reconfigured as a Salesforce Connected App, Outbound Message, Flow integration, or AppExchange app. FlitStack provides an integration audit document listing every active connection for your team to rebuild.
mQuest
mQuest Role / Permission Set
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Profile / Permission Set
1:1mQuest user roles and permission levels do not have a direct Salesforce equivalent. User access and permissions in Salesforce are managed via Profiles and Permission Sets. FlitStack exports the mQuest role structure as a reference document so your Salesforce admin can assign appropriate Profiles and Permission Sets post-migration.

Migration approach
Discover mQuest schema and map to Salesforce custom-object model
FlitStack AI connects to mQuest via API and inventories every standard and custom object, field, relationship, and attachment. We identify the custom objects required in Salesforce (Quest__c, Quest_Assignment__c, Quest_Response__c) and the lookup fields linking them to Contact. We also surface any mQuest custom fields that need Salesforce __c equivalents. The output is a Salesforce Schema Setup Plan: a list of custom objects, fields, pick-list values, and lookup relationships your admin creates before the migration run.
Pre-create Salesforce custom objects and resolve owner email matches
Your Salesforce admin creates the custom objects and fields from the Schema Setup Plan. Simultaneously, FlitStack AI resolves mQuest user emails against Salesforce usernames for owner assignment. Unresolved users are flagged so your team can invite them to Salesforce or assign a fallback Contact before records land. No data moves until the Salesforce schema is ready and every owner resolves to a Contact.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
Before committing the full production migration, FlitStack AI runs a representative sample migration using 50–200 records spanning all key objects: users mapped to Contacts, quests mapped to Quest__c, assignments mapped to Quest_Assignment__c, responses mapped to Quest_Response__c, and a representative sample of engagement history. After loading this sample, FlitStack AI generates a field-level diff comparing mQuest source values against Salesforce destination values so your team can verify lookup resolution accuracy, confirm pick-list value mapping, and validate progress and score field transformations before the full run executes.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full production migration runs in sequence: Contacts (users) first, then Quest__c, then Quest_Assignment__c with lookups to Contact and Quest__c, then Quest_Response__c with lookups to Quest_Assignment__c. Engagement history (Tasks, Events, Notes) migrates in parallel. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any quests created, assignments made, or responses submitted in mQuest during the cutover. Audit log records every operation; one-click rollback is available if reconciliation finds data discrepancies.
Deliver migration audit log and workflow rebuild reference
FlitStack AI delivers a full migration audit log: record counts per object, field-level mapping log, owner resolution report, and any records that failed validation. We also deliver the mQuest Workflow Export — a structured document of all discovered mQuest workflows, quest routing rules, and automation logic for your Salesforce admin to rebuild in Flow and Process Builder. Post-migration, your team validates reports and dashboards in Salesforce before go-live.
