Overview
Moving from Sprinklr Service to Gorgias is a step-down from a 30-plus channel enterprise CCaaS to a ticket-centric helpdesk built for ecommerce operations. Sprinklr structures cases as multi-channel conversation threads with separate entities for Agents, Teams, Custom Fields, and Knowledge Base articles; Gorgias consolidates most of this into Customers, Tickets, and a separate Knowledge Base module. We handle the schema translation: Sprinklr case channel source and agent assignment become Gorgias ticket tags and assignee; Sprinklr custom fields become Gorgias ticket attributes; Sprinklr Knowledge Base articles export as structured markdown and import into Gorgias Articles. Sprinklr's 1000 calls per hour API rate limit constrains large-volume extraction, so we use bulk export where available and paginated API fallback during off-peak windows. Automations, approval workflows, and SLA configuration do not migrate as code; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's team to rebuild in Gorgias.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Sprinklr Service object lands in Gorgias, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Sprinklr Service
Case
Gorgias
Ticket
1:1Sprinklr Cases map to Gorgias Tickets. The Sprinklr case ID is preserved in a custom Gorgias ticket attribute for audit traceability. Channel source (email, chat, voice, social) from Sprinklr becomes a Gorgias ticket tag per channel. Agent assignment, SLA timestamps (First Response, Next Response, Resolution), and priority migrate to Gorgias assignee, SLA rules, and priority fields respectively. Message threads attach as Ticket Messages in chronological order.
Sprinklr Service
Contact
Gorgias
Customer
1:1Sprinklr Contacts map to Gorgias Customers. The mapping is direct for contacts with a unique email address used as the dedupe key. Sprinklr custom contact properties migrate to Gorgias customer attributes. If the Sprinklr tenant uses linked Company records, we resolve the company association and map it to the Gorgias Customer organization field.
Sprinklr Service
Company
Gorgias
Customer (organization)
1:1Sprinklr Companies map to the organization field on Gorgias Customers. Company custom properties (industry, size tier, account tier) become Gorgias customer attributes. If the Sprinklr implementation has contacts without a linked company, we create a standalone Gorgias customer record and flag it for manual review to confirm whether an organization association is appropriate.
Sprinklr Service
Agent
Gorgias
User (Agent)
1:1Sprinklr Agent records (user profile, role assignment, team membership, skill tags) map to Gorgias Users with the Agent role. We resolve agents by email match. Skill-based routing metadata from Sprinklr is preserved as tags on the Gorgias User record. Agents without an email match are placed in a reconciliation queue for the customer to provision before record import resumes.
Sprinklr Service
Team
Gorgias
Team
1:1Sprinklr Teams (agent groupings used for case routing and SLA management) map to Gorgias Teams. Team membership lists migrate as group membership records in Gorgias. If the Sprinklr implementation uses a hierarchical team structure, we flatten the hierarchy into Gorgias flat teams and preserve the parent-child relationship as a tag on each team.
Sprinklr Service
Custom Fields (on Case)
Gorgias
Ticket Attributes (custom fields)
1:1Sprinklr custom fields on Cases map to Gorgias custom ticket fields. Picklist, multiselect, number, text, and date field types translate directly. Controlling-field hierarchies from Sprinklr (where a picklist value governs the visibility of child fields) cannot be reproduced in Gorgias; we flatten the controlling field values into tags on the ticket and flag the child field values for manual post-migration configuration in Gorgias Settings.
Sprinklr Service
Custom Fields (on Contact)
Gorgias
Customer Attributes
1:1Sprinklr custom fields on Contacts map to Gorgias customer attributes. We export the full field definition per tenant from the Sprinklr Developer Portal and create equivalent custom attributes in Gorgias. Any cross-references to controlling fields are resolved using the controlling field value as a tag, consistent with the flattening approach used for case custom fields.
Sprinklr Service
Tag
Gorgias
Tag
1:1Sprinklr Tags (applied across Cases and Contacts for classification) map to Gorgias Tags. Tag taxonomy is exported with parent-child relationships preserved as a naming convention (e.g., Region-North-America) or as separate tags linked by convention, depending on the volume and complexity of the source taxonomy.
Sprinklr Service
Knowledge Base Articles
Gorgias
Articles
1:1Sprinklr KB articles export as structured content via the built-in KB export function or API. Articles include category, publish status, author, and external/internal URL metadata. We convert article content to Gorgias-compatible markdown and import into the Gorgias Articles module, preserving category assignments as article categories. Published status migrates directly; draft articles are imported with draft status and flagged for editorial review.
Sprinklr Service
Conversation / Message Thread
Gorgias
Ticket Message
1:1Sprinklr message threads (inbound and outbound messages per case, tagged with channel, timestamp, sender, and content) map to Gorgias Ticket Messages. Each message in the thread becomes a separate message record attached to the target Gorgias Ticket. Channel metadata is preserved as message-level tags. Attachments migrate as file references where the attachment URL remains accessible post-migration.
Sprinklr Service
Custom Entities
Gorgias
Customer Attributes or External Reference
lossySprinklr Custom Entity types (created via Entity Manager) are unique per tenant and may represent domain objects such as Subscriptions, Policies, or Contracts. Gorgias does not have a native custom entity model. We handle these in one of two ways depending on volume and relationship: for small entity sets with a clear link to Customer, we embed the most relevant fields as customer attributes; for large or complex custom entity sets, we flag them for a separate migration scope or a Gorgias custom integration build.
Sprinklr Service
Dashboard Exports
Gorgias
Report Package (delivered separately)
1:1Sprinklr reporting dashboards and widget exports (PDF, Excel, CSV) are extracted directly and delivered as a structured report package alongside the data migration. Gorgias analytics cover ticket volume, response times, and agent performance but do not replicate Sprinklr's multi-channel reporting dimensions. Report rebuilding in Gorgias is documented as a post-migration task.

Migration approach
Discovery and Sprinklr environment audit
We audit the source Sprinklr Service tenant across workspace structure, API rate limit tier, custom field definitions (including controlling-field hierarchies), custom entity schemas, KB article count and category taxonomy, and agent and team roster. We identify whether Data Connector bulk export (S3 or SFTP) is available in the customer's Sprinklr tier as an alternative to REST API extraction. The discovery output is a written migration scope document covering object inventory, estimated row counts, and a recommended extraction sequence given the rate limit constraints.
Gorgias destination setup and schema provisioning
We configure the Gorgias destination workspace before any data loads. This includes provisioning Users and Teams matched to the Sprinklr agent and team roster, creating custom ticket fields matched to Sprinklr custom fields (with controlling-field values converted to tags), and setting up the Knowledge Base article categories mapped to the Sprinklr KB taxonomy. SLA rules in Gorgias are configured based on the SLA timestamps extracted from Sprinklr cases.
Sample migration and reconciliation
We run a test migration using a representative sample of cases (typically 100-200 records across channel types) into a Gorgias staging environment. The customer reviews the mapped tickets, verifies that channel source tags are correct, confirms that custom field values are populated, and spot-checks 25-50 records against the Sprinklr source. Mapping corrections, field type adjustments, and tag taxonomy decisions are finalized during this phase before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Users and Teams first (validated against the Sprinklr agent roster), then Customers (from Sprinklr Contacts and Companies), then Tickets (from Sprinklr Cases with message threads attached), then Tags (reconstructed against their parent records), then KB Articles (converted to markdown and imported into Gorgias Articles), then Custom Entities (embedded as customer attributes or flagged for separate scope). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. We use bulk export where available and paginated API fallback with exponential backoff during off-peak windows to stay within the 1000 calls per hour Sprinklr rate limit.
Cutover, delta sync, and handoff
We freeze Sprinklr case writes during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any cases or messages modified during the migration window, then enable Gorgias as the system of record. We deliver the migration inventory document covering each object migrated, row counts, and any records flagged as partial or requiring manual follow-up. We provide a written inventory of Sprinklr automations, approval workflows, and SLA configurations requiring rebuild in Gorgias as a separate admin task. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the customer's support team.
