Overview
Swivl Tech structures its data model around field-service operations: Customers, Jobs, Services, and Invoices with status, priority, location, and scheduling fields. Twenty CRM uses a standard B2B CRM schema: People (contacts), Companies (accounts), and Opportunities (deals) with a custom-field extension model. There is no native job or work-order object in Twenty, so Swivl job records become Opportunities with custom fields for service_type__c, job_status__c, service_address__c, and priority__c. Swivl invoice records map to a custom invoice_status__c pick-list on the Opportunity with payment date and due date as custom datetime fields. FlitStack AI sequences the migration so Companies are loaded first, then People linked by companyId, then Opportunities carrying the job-derived data. Custom fields for all non-standard attributes are created in Twenty before data lands. Workflows, dispatch rules, and scheduling automations from Swivl do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder. Activity history (calls, emails, meetings) migrates as Tasks and Notes with original timestamps and owner links. The migration runs against Twenty's REST and GraphQL APIs with rate-limit handling for large record sets.
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 Swivl Tech object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Swivl Tech
Customer
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Swivl Tech Customer records map directly to Twenty People records. Name, email, phone, and address fields transfer directly. Custom fields such as Swivl customer role or department migrate as Twenty custom fields on the People object. Owner resolution happens by email match against invited Twenty workspace members.
Swivl Tech
Company / Business Account
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Swivl Tech stores company name and domain on Customer or Job records. These map to Twenty Company Name and Website fields. Industry and employee count from Swivl company records become custom fields in Twenty since Twenty does not include native industry or employee-count pick-lists. Parent-company relationships require manual review before migration.
Swivl Tech
Job
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Swivl Tech Job records — the core field-service entity — map to Twenty Opportunities. The job name becomes the Opportunity name, the service amount maps to Opportunity amount, and the scheduled date maps to the expected close date. Job status, service type, priority, and service address transfer as custom fields on the Opportunity because Twenty has no native job object.
Swivl Tech
Job Status
Twenty CRM
Custom field on Opportunity
1:1Swivl job statuses (Scheduled, In Progress, Completed, Cancelled) require a custom pick-list field on Twenty Opportunity — typically named job_status__c. Values map one-to-one. A Twenty admin creates the pick-list options before migration so import validation does not reject records with unmapped status values.
Swivl Tech
Job Type / Service Category
Twenty CRM
Custom field on Opportunity
1:1Swivl service type (HVAC repair, electrical, plumbing, etc.) maps to a custom text or pick-list field service_type__c on Opportunity. The field type depends on whether Swivl uses a controlled vocabulary or free-text entries. Free-text entries become custom text fields; controlled pick-lists become custom pick-list fields in Twenty.
Swivl Tech
Service Address / Job Location
Twenty CRM
Custom field on Opportunity
1:1Swivl job location data (street, city, state, ZIP) has no native address field on Twenty Opportunity. We create service_address__c, service_city__c, service_state__c, and service_zip__c custom fields. Latitude and longitude, if present in Swivl, migrate as decimal custom fields for map-integration compatibility.
Swivl Tech
Invoice
Twenty CRM
Custom fields on Opportunity
1:1Swivl Tech invoice records link to jobs and carry invoice number, amount, tax, status, and due date. These map to a set of custom fields on the related Opportunity: invoice_number__c, invoice_status__c (pick-list: Paid, Unpaid, Overdue, Void), invoice_amount__c, tax_amount__c, due_date__c, and paid_date__c. PDF invoice files are re-uploaded as Twenty Files attached to the Opportunity record.
Swivl Tech
Service (line item on Job)
Twenty CRM
Opportunity Line Item or Custom fields on Opportunity
many:1Swivl services attached to a job — line-item descriptions and amounts — merge into the Opportunity amount field if single-service, or into a custom services_json__c text field capturing the full service breakdown as JSON when multiple line items exist. We preserve the original service descriptions as a text audit trail on the Opportunity.
Swivl Tech
Owner / Technician
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember relation
1:1Swivl owner_id and technician_id fields resolve by email match against Twenty workspace members. FlitStack flags any Swivl owner with no matching Twenty user before migration so the team can invite them or reassign records to a fallback user. This prevents orphaned Opportunity records with unresolvable owner relations.
Swivl Tech
Call / Email / Meeting Activity
Twenty CRM
Task / Note
1:1Swivl activity records (call logs, email threads, meeting notes) migrate as Twenty Tasks and Notes with original timestamps, owners, and parent-record links preserved. Tasks carry the activity subject and type; detailed body content migrates as a Note attached to the related People or Opportunity record. This preserves the full service communication history.
Swivl Tech
Attachment / File
Twenty CRM
Twenty Files
1:1Swivl file attachments on jobs, invoices, or customer records re-upload to Twenty Files and attached to the target record. File size limits and inline image handling follow Twenty's upload constraints. We preserve the original filename and content type as metadata on each uploaded file.
Swivl Tech
Custom Object (Enterprise Swivl)
Twenty CRM
Custom Object
1:1If Swivl Tech stores custom objects (e.g., Equipment, Warranty, Recurring Service Contract), those map 1:1 to Twenty custom objects. Custom object associations that use N:N relationships in Swivl require junction objects in Twenty. We document the relationship structure during the audit phase and surface any many-to-many mappings in the migration plan before data lands.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Swivl Tech gotchas
No documented REST API for automated data extraction
Attachment files are not accessible via export
Swivl brand name overlaps with unrelated products
AI estimator outputs are not a standard CRM object
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Swivl Tech data model and export readiness
FlitStack connects to Swivl Tech via API using scoped read access — no write permissions required. We extract a full data inventory: Customer records, Company records (or company attributes embedded in customers), Job records with all service fields, Invoice records, activity history, and any custom objects. We generate a data-quality report identifying duplicate records, missing required fields, and orphaned relationships before mapping begins. This audit phase also identifies which Swivl custom fields are pick-lists versus free-text so Twenty custom field types are configured correctly.
Create Twenty schema and custom fields before data arrives
Twenty requires all custom fields to exist before CSV or API imports can populate them. Based on the audit, FlitStack delivers a schema setup plan specifying: custom pick-list options for job_status__c and service_type__c, custom text fields for service_address__c and description__c, custom date fields for due_date__c and paid_date__c, and any junction objects for N:N relationships. We recommend creating these fields in a Twenty sandbox or test workspace first, running a sample migration, and verifying field visibility in the Twenty UI before committing to the production workspace.
Invite and resolve all users in Twenty before importing records
Twenty's People.companyId relation and Opportunity owner relations require workspace members to exist first. FlitStack resolves Swivl owner_id and technician_id values against Twenty workspace members by email match. Any Swivl owner with no corresponding Twenty user is flagged in a pre-migration report with options: invite them to Twenty, reassign their records to a fallback owner, or exclude them from the migration. No Opportunity or People record lands in Twenty without a resolvable owner — this prevents the orphan-record problem that breaks pipeline reporting after cutover.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff across a representative slice
A representative slice — typically 200 to 500 records spanning a range of job statuses, service types, and customer types — migrates first using the full field-mapping logic. FlitStack generates a field-level diff comparing source values against destination values so you can verify that service_type__c pick-list values rendered correctly, job_status__c translated as expected, and owner resolution produced valid Twenty users. You approve the sample before the full migration commits. This step is where custom field configuration errors surface before they affect your entire dataset.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and one-click rollback
The full migration loads Companies first, then People with companyId relations, then Opportunities carrying all job-derived custom fields and invoice data. A delta-pickup window — typically 24 to 48 hours — captures any Swivl records created or modified during the cutover window. All operations are logged in an audit trail with source record IDs and destination record IDs for reconciliation. If post-migration validation reveals data integrity issues, FlitStack provides a one-click rollback that reverts the Twenty workspace to its pre-migration state using the recorded audit log.
