Backup Phonebook and restore it in Contact Manager

FreePBX Applications / Modules
1

I want to migrate a configuration that I have in a FreePBX 15 system to a FreePBX 17.
With the Backup & Restore I can do that, except for the information that I have in the Phonebook, which does not exist in FreePBX 17.
Is there any way that I can automatically import the FPBX 15 Phonebook data into the FPBX 17 Contact Manager, or do I need to do it manually?

I was able to export the phonebook data, message it a bit in Excel and then load it into the Allowlist module. You lose the speed dial functionality but if you want to have Superfecta lookup against Allowlist, it works. I haven’t found any way to import into Contact Manager as it is a fairly complex construct of multiple tables.

Shouldn’t be that difficult to export phonebook, then reformat the csv to impot to contact mgr using bulk handler module.

Thank you for your replies @kenn10 & @lgaetz . I will try to do it as @lgaetz suggested, as I want to migrate to Contact Manager.
