Import from Pipedrive

  1. Bigin supports up to 10 custom fields/module in Express edition and up to 25 custom fields/module in Premier edition. The number of custom fields that can be imported from Pipedrive depends on the custom fields that you have in Bigin. For example, if you already have six custom fields created in Bigin, only 4 custom fields can be imported from Pipedrive for Express edition.
  2. If a custom field is already created with the same name and type as that of the field in Pipedrive then data will be imported seamlessly to that field in Bigin. Otherwise, a new custom field will be created in Bigin during the import.
  3. Up to 10 tags/module can be imported during the import process for an Express edition and up to 30 tags/module for a Premier edition.

For example, if you already have five tags in Bigin, only 5 tags can be imported from Pipedrive for Express edition.
  4. Bigin supports import of up to 5 users in Express edition and up to 20 users in Premier edition. Once import process is completed, the users can be found under Invited users tab in Bigin and have to be re-invited to join the Bigin account. For example, if you already have 5 users created in Bigin, then the users from Pipedrive will be imported but you cannot re-invite them as the user limit is already reached for Express edition.
  5. Bigin supports 25 sub-pipelines from Pipedrive during the import process provided the edition specific sub-pipeline limit in that account is not exceeded.
