Overview
UPilot stores contacts, companies, deals, and activities in a simplified object model with a flat property structure that maps cleanly to HubSpot's CRM objects. HubSpot uses contacts (with lifecycle_stage as the unifying property), companies, deals (organized into pipelines with stage labels), and a rich activity history of calls, emails, meetings, and notes. The migration carries everything UPilot stores natively into HubSpot's CRM. The critical decisions are mapping UPilot deal stages to HubSpot pipeline stages, resolving UPilot owners to HubSpot users by email, preserving UPilot custom fields as HubSpot custom properties, and deciding what to do with UPilot's role-based access and team configurations (HubSpot uses roles, permissions, and teams that must be reconfigured post-migration). HubSpot's marketing-contact billing model doesn't apply to the migrated records — contacts land as standard CRM contacts, not marketing contacts, until your team assigns that flag. FlitStack sequences the migration so contacts resolve to companies before deals, owner lookups complete before records land, and a delta-pickup window captures in-flight changes during the cutover. Everything that can't migrate automatically — workflows, automation rules, team permission hierarchies — is documented in a rebuild reference we deliver with the migrated data.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a UPilot object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
UPilot
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1UPilot contacts map directly to HubSpot contacts. Every standard property (name, email, phone, job title, address) transfers as a HubSpot contact property. Owner resolution happens by email match against HubSpot users — unmatched owners are flagged before migration for team assignment.
UPilot
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1UPilot companies map to HubSpot companies. HubSpot requires contacts to associate to a primary company via the Associated Company property. UPilot's company-to-contact associations translate to HubSpot's company-contact linking model with N:1 primary designation — each contact can link to one primary company, and companies can have many associated contacts. This preserves the relationship hierarchy while conforming to HubSpot's association architecture.
UPilot
Deal
HubSpot
Deal
1:1UPilot deals map to HubSpot deals. Each deal carries deal name, amount, stage, close date, owner, and associated contacts. HubSpot's deal object requires a pipeline assignment — the migration assigns deals to the default pipeline unless a pipeline mapping plan is defined during scoping.
UPilot
Deal Stage
HubSpot
Deal Pipeline Stage
1:1UPilot deal stages map to HubSpot pipeline stages by value. Stage names are mapped one-by-one during the scoping phase. If UPilot uses 5+ stages and HubSpot will use multiple pipelines to separate business units or product lines, the migration plan documents which stages route to which pipeline before the migration run executes. This prevents deals from landing in the wrong pipeline with mismatched stage labels.
UPilot
Activity: Task
HubSpot
Engagement: Task
1:1UPilot tasks migrate as HubSpot engagement tasks. Original timestamps, owners, and task subject lines transfer directly to the HubSpot engagement task properties. HubSpot's engagement timeline displays tasks chronologically against the associated contact, company, or deal record — your team sees the full task history in context without any manual recreation or data entry.
UPilot
Activity: Note
HubSpot
Engagement: Note
1:1UPilot notes become HubSpot engagement notes. Rich-text formatting is preserved where UPilot supports it during export. Notes attach to the parent contact or company record and appear in HubSpot's activity timeline alongside calls, emails, and meetings — this keeps your full communication record intact and visible to anyone reviewing the contact or company in HubSpot.
UPilot
Activity: Call
HubSpot
Engagement: Call
1:1UPilot call records (call type, duration, outcome) migrate to HubSpot calls. HubSpot's call property set includes Call Title, Body, Direction, Duration, and Disposition — the migration maps UPilot fields to the nearest HubSpot call properties, preserving the call record details so your team has complete call history available in HubSpot's engagement timeline.
UPilot
Activity: Email
HubSpot
Engagement: Email
1:1UPilot email records migrate as HubSpot email engagements. Subject, body, and timestamp transfer completely. HubSpot tracks emails against the contact timeline and optionally logs against the deal if a deal association exists on the contact record — this ensures email history is visible wherever your team is working in HubSpot.
UPilot
Activity: Meeting
HubSpot
Engagement: Meeting
1:1UPilot meetings map to HubSpot meetings. Start time, end time, location, and title transfer with full fidelity. HubSpot meetings attach to the contact record and appear in the engagement timeline alongside calls and emails, giving your team a complete picture of every customer interaction in one chronological view.
UPilot
Custom Field
HubSpot
Custom Property
1:1UPilot custom fields on contacts, companies, and deals require HubSpot custom property creation before migration. FlitStack delivers a property creation plan as part of the migration package — property names, types, and pick-list options are documented so HubSpot admins can pre-create the schema.
UPilot
User / Owner
HubSpot
User
1:1UPilot users and deal owners resolve to HubSpot users by email address. If a UPilot owner email has no matching HubSpot user, the record lands under a designated fallback owner — your team creates the HubSpot user or reassigns after migration.
UPilot
Role / Team
HubSpot
Team / Role
1:1UPilot role-based access configurations do not transfer to HubSpot. HubSpot's roles, permissions, and teams are destination-side schema that must be rebuilt post-migration. FlitStack exports UPilot's complete role definitions as a detailed rebuild reference document, listing each role, its associated permissions, and the users assigned. Your HubSpot admin uses this document as a step-by-step blueprint for reconstructing the permission hierarchy in HubSpot's Settings > Users & Teams.
UPilot
Attachment / File
HubSpot
File
1:1UPilot file attachments on records re-upload to HubSpot Files. Files attach to the parent record (contact, company, or deal) in HubSpot's file manager. HubSpot's 115MB file size limit per file applies — any files exceeding this threshold are flagged in the pre-migration report so your team can decide whether to upload those files manually or exclude them from the migration run.

Migration approach
Extract UPilot data via API and audit schema
FlitStack connects to UPilot via its API using read-only credentials. We extract all contacts, companies, deals, activities (calls, emails, meetings, notes, tasks), custom field definitions, and the complete user list. The extraction audit produces a detailed data map listing every object type, individual field, and record count. This data map becomes the authoritative source for the HubSpot property creation plan and the field mapping specification that governs how each UPilot field translates to its HubSpot equivalent during the migration run.
Create HubSpot custom properties from the property creation plan
Your HubSpot admin (or our team with admin credentials) creates the custom properties listed in the property creation plan. For each UPilot custom field, we document the HubSpot property name, data type, and pick-list values. This step must complete before the migration run — properties that don't exist in HubSpot when the migration runs are skipped or loaded as text. We deliver the property creation plan as a structured checklist so this step is quick for a HubSpot admin.
Resolve UPilot owners to HubSpot users by email
UPilot user and owner records are matched to HubSpot users by email address. FlitStack runs an owner resolution pass against your HubSpot user list. Records with matched owners transfer with the Owner ID populated. Records without a matching HubSpot user are flagged in the pre-migration report — your team creates the HubSpot user or assigns these records to a designated fallback owner before the migration run commits.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative sample of typically 100–300 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities migrates to HubSpot first. We generate a field-level diff showing source value versus destination value for every mapped field — this includes direct mappings, transformed values like owner IDs, and any skipped records. You review the diff against the migration plan, verifying deal stage mapping, owner resolution accuracy, custom property population, and activity attachment. Sample approval gates the full migration run — this checkpoint catches mapping errors before they affect your entire dataset.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full record set migrates to HubSpot. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in UPilot during the migration window. FlitStack logs every operation to an audit trail — record count, field mapping applied, owner resolution status, and any skipped records with reason. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals unexpected results. After rollback window closes, the migration is committed and your team conducts final UAT in HubSpot.
