  1. 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.

  2. 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

  3. Be able to log into scratch org from Deployment Success page

    It would be super convenient to log into the scratch org directly from the Deployment success page

    • From Compare & Deploy sequence
    • From CI success

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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…

  8. 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'

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. Indicate whether a Validated Package is enabled for Quick Deploy

    T0 - You Validate a package to PROD (run all tests)

    T1 - You or someone else does a deployment of something else, no matter how minor, to PROD.

    T2 - You click Deploy of the Validated Package from T0, all the apex tests are rerun. This is by design per SFDC yet Gearset doesn't tell you in advance that Quick Deploy is not available. Something you think will take a couple of minutes now takes 30 minutes or more. You think you screwed up or Gearset is broken

    Suggestion: On Validated Packages page and on the page of a…

  13. Show doesRequireRecordChangedToMeetCriteria on Flow Navigator

    The doesRequireRecordChangedToMeetCriteria toggle on flow Decisions doesn't show on Flow Navigator, making it harder to check for issues on builds when using the comparison tool.

    doesRequireRecordChangedToMeetCriteria should show in the flow navigator, same as the rest of the decision configuration.

  14. documentation

    I have been really impressed by the visualizations on the Compare and Deploy interface. Particularly the lightning page layouts and flows. One of my most time consuming tasks is creating internal documentation and I have not found a tool that allows me to capture the level of detail that I want in an efficient way. It would be great if I could export the visualizations at the bottom of the compare and deploy screen. It would be even better if it could export directly to Confluence.

  15. Offer Japan data residency

    We are headquartered in Japan. Japan has data residency requirements for data backups/deployments and even metadata deployments/processing.

    Please add the option for a Japan hosted Gearset account.

  16. Display auto-merged files during Conflict Resolution

    The Conflict Resolution only displays files that require manual resolution. Sometimes I want to see the files that were automatically merged without human intervention.

    The only way to see this is to submit a resolution as is, then read through the file changes again to look for files that were auto merged/resolved from target instead of source.

  17. Ability it use SOQL to provide complex filters on Vlocity and Salesforce Metadata types to create custom Compare & Deploy Filters

    I would like to have the ability to enter SOQL queries to filter Metadata types and data. Currently you can only use Object or Regex when you try to filter the data to fine tune the comparison. We are looking to do this for Vlocity and Salesforce metadata types and objects

  18. Gearset CPQ deployment to delete target org component if source is deleted

    Example in CPQ template you have situation when you need delete from source org component (content, line column etc.)
    Now you have to delete this in target org as post deployment task.
    Current solution support only new or changed component change.

  19. Pull Request Branch Filter/restriction

    Currently creating a pull request from the "Create pull request Screen" provides the user with a list of all the branches.

    The default of this seems to be based on the last location you had selected when you created your branch (This usually ends up being main). As we have a pipeline this is the last place you want anyone being able to create a PR into!

    It would be great if we could whitelist/blacklist a bunch of Branch names on this dropdown to stop users accidentally selecting main when creating a PR (for most users this would be one…

  20. Include "Messages reported by Salesforce" during Metadata Deployment in the final report

    During a metadata deployment, on the "deployment in progress" screen, there is a column for "message reported by salesforce".

    I think these should be included in the final results screen, and perhaps in the deployment report.

    These can be useful for the user to do things like make changes to their flows to conform to salesforce best practices.
