Provide deployment options for Mulesoft via Gearset
As Gearset does Salesforce based deployments so well, it would be great to have Mule deployments done through Gearset as well.

Provide and enforce branch naming conventions
Branches get all kinds of really stupid names over time. It would be nice if Gearset provided an option to template new branch names. For example when my users need to create a new feature branch for their user story, Gearset should prefix that branch with 'feature/'. When a release branch is created it should be prefixed as 'release/'. Bugfixes or Hotfixes could be bugfix/ or hotfix/.
Dictating naming conventions is unenforcable. Keeping branch names organized goes a long way to keeping the repository maintainable over long periods of time. Even if folks are well intentioned, git branches are case…

Make Gearset more responsive via web design
Currently when doing deployments I have realized when i migrate to a smaller screen that gearset isn't super responsive and sometimes i have to drag it back to my larger monitor. This was really highlighted when I was attempting to deploy some metadata from my phone (mac was updating).
Please make gearset more responsive so I can deploy from my phone.3 votes -

Automatic Validation of Pull request for AWS code commit
Gearset does not support PR validation for AWS code commit. We are cloud-native and use AWS extensively, thus missing out on most important feature of gearset. If you can support it it will be amazing and lifesaver for us.

resize column widths on "deployment history" page (no truncated values)
On the deployment history page, the column widths are fixed. If you have a value in the "friendly name" column that's over a certain character count, it gets truncated automatically. there is a tool tip to see the full value by hovering, but if you use consistent naming standards for naming deployment packages, this can result in having to hover over many package (i.e. rows) to find the one you want.
if making the column width customizable isn't possible, then making the "friendly name" column character limit longer would be a good start!

Option to retry Deployment after failure
Currently, if your deployment fails you have two options:
- Click "back to results"
- Click "new comparison"
Going with option 1 means it needs to re-load the comparison and then click next and re-run all the analyzers again which can take a varying amount of time depending on the size of the comparison/deployment.
In situations where the deployment failed, but the fix is to change something in the org manually - it'd be great to have an option to simply "retry deployment" from the failed deployment screen and skip the various screens and re-loading.

Limit Connections creation
Currently there is no feature to prevent users in creating their own connections within Gearset.
We need users to follow the permission that was setup on the shared connection. We have only 2 users that have the approval to deploy code from a sandbox to production. As they can set up their own connections then this bypasses our restriction
Having a permission only available to the Enterprise user or a user approved to create connections and delegate access would prevent the bypass of access permissions

Custom ordering option for CI Dashboard
Rather than splitting jobs into Validate and Deploy and ordering alphabetically, allow custom ordering (drag and drop, or custom grouping) in order to maintain logical job sequences including a mix of deploy and validate jobs.

Add Additional Deployment Preferences for JIRA integration
Currently the Jira Ticket Deployment Preferences don't give you enough options to manage the expected behavior with our process. Right now there is too much noise on our tickets and we want the option to reduce that. For example, we do not need to comment on the ticket when attempting to validate deployment, just as we don't need it for failed deployments (which you already have as a feature). We simply want a comment with the deployment notes when a deployment is made since this would reflect the actual system changes that took place with this feature/issue.

Show test apex run in the deployment report
When we validate a deployment then schedule it for deployment. Once deployed we receive a report however the tests run do not show here and you have to back to the validated section to find them - please include the tests run on the final deployment report

Add ability to customize CI Dashboard
We have a number of different teams using Gearset with a number of different CI jobs. I don't care to see their jobs in my dashboard and they don't care to see my jobs on their dashboard. It would be great to be able to customize my dashboard so that I only see the jobs I'm interested in. Maybe it's some sort of flag on job to be able to add/remove from dashboard or maybe its a separate tab called 'My CI Jobs Dashboard' that we could default to when opening CI Jobs. Thanks for your consideration.

Metadata filter - ability to select Report/Dashboard folders by parent folder name
When setting up a metadata filter for a new comparison, when it comes to Reports and Dashboards, it would save sooooo much time if they could be selected according to the top-level/parent folder that they reside in. That would enable the ability select all reports within a single parent folder at once, rather than having to select reports separately which reside in a nested/child folder.

Monthly sandbox refresh from production
I would like the ability to refresh a sandbox from production on a scheduled recurring basis on a monthly cycle (ex: from prod to a full sandbox) so as not to overwrite current development items that are in process or testing.

Ability to change Formula Fields to other Field Types
Gearset doesn't help with one of the most common deployment headaches: changing a formula field to a non-formula field type. It's still a nightmare even with Gearset.
What would be awesome would be if you had a "Change Field Type Wizard" where we could say FormulaField1 needs to become TextField1 and it would do multiple deployments to accomplish the changeover:
- get components
- deploy temp field of new type AND update all existing components to reference the temp field instead of the formula field
- deploy delete of formula field
- deploy text field in place of the old…3 votes -
call webhook with scheduled deployment
We would like Gearset to call a webhook when a scheduled deployment completes. The message to the webhook should pass a message with the org name, UTC datetime, the deployment friendly name, URL of Gearset deployment results and a status field with 'succeeded' or 'failed'

Clone Package - keep Tests list
It would be great if when cloning a deployment, it can keep the tests which got performed in the original deployment. Right now, we need to keep a list of the tests which ran on a doc on the side.

Give users the ability to update field/object permissions for specific profiles only
The issue is, when promoting from one org to another and changing either Custom Object Permissions or Custom Field Permissions and if more than the profile you want has been changed, the extra profile changes get promoted anyway. So we need a way to control which profiles get applied when promoting field and object level security.

Show the Created Date and Refresh Date on the Draft Deployments
I understand the Draft Deployments are snapshots from when they were created or last refreshed. Is that right? Please show these fields on the Draft Deployments page.
