Migrate contacts activities

We’re migrating from our old Hubspot account to a new one. I was able to export/import most of the data from contacts, companies, and deals.

However, I just realized the “Activities” data was not migrated. Is there a way for me to export this data from my old account and import it into the new one?

Hi @vinyoliver,

You’re correct, there isn’t an out of the box feature to export activities. There are different ways to approach this:

  • HubSpot API: With the help of a developer, you can leverage the HubSpot API to export activity information.
  • Apps on the HubSpot marketplace: There is a dedicated HubSpot to HubSpot migrator app on the marketplace, currently priced at $599. You could also look into Ultimate Data Export and Import2.
  • HubSpot reports: Activities can be exported via custom HubSpot reports. Once you create an activity report, you can also export the raw data of that report. This requires the most foresight in terms of which columns exactly you export and then map for re-import.

Hope this helps!

HI,
Thanks a lot for your answer! I think that Utlimate Data Export can do the job and is much cheaper than their other offer Hubspot to Hubpost Migrator. However, I was wondering about my forms, do I have to recreate them ahead of the data import ?
Same for my commercial pipes, products, quotes, etc. Do I have to create them and then import the data? In that case, it requieres lot of work and the Hubspot to Hubspot Migrator seems more interesting, but very expensive… Thanks for your response

I had this same problem and got as far as realizing that you can export contact activity in JSON but there’s no JSON importer. So here is a script that will take the JSON and output an importable csv: https://github.com/bomeejung/hubspot-migrate/
