Removing a dev sandbox from a group loses downstream environment connection
When you remove a developer sandbox from a developer sandbox group, Gearset "loses" its previous downstream environment connection. You need to edit the pipeline to reattach it to the environment to recreate the intended flow.
The sandbox groups should just be for organizational purposes, and that management shouldn't impact the actual pipeline connectivity for the sandbox. It's currently very easy to miss the lost connection which leads to a desync'd sandbox that's now missing out on sandbox Updates and manual deployment steps.1 vote -
Missing environments while configuring pre/post deployment steps
While creating a pre/post deployment step, you have the option to select specific environments. That list does not contain all the connected environments within our pipeline. It seems to only show environments that are along a direct downstream path of the step's source.
With all of Gearset's automation and back-propagation functionality, it is possible for that PR/step to arrive at an environment that isn't along a direct downstream path of the step's source. Because of that, I would expect to be able to account for all environments in a pipeline while creating a deployment step. We often have steps that…1 vote -
New commits pushed during PR validation aren’t picked up until manual re-run
In Gearset Pipelines, if a PR validation is already in progress and a new commit is pushed to the same feature branch, Gearset does not automatically trigger a follow-up validation for the latest commit after the current run completes. This leaves GitHub showing “checks not triggered yet” for the newest commit until we manually re-run validation.
Expected behavior:
When a new commit is pushed while validation is running, Gearset should automatically schedule/trigger another validation after the current run finishes (or cancel + restart, depending on design), so the latest commit is always validated without manual intervention.
Actual behavior:
The in-progress…

Add an account setting to "Mute Live Chat"
As an experienced Gearset user I'd like to mute the live chat so the pop-up notifications don't block buttons. Pop-up notifications have been rather disruptive.
In particular:
after selecting two orgs for a large compare operation, I try click "Compare", and walk away while the comparison runs.
When I return to my computer, I discover that the compare never initialized, and it turns out that although I could see and click the button "Compare", it was behind a live-chat pop-up "Hi David,...", and the button would NOT execute until I closed the live chat pop-up (x) button.I'm experiencing an…

Enable AccountContactRelation standard object as part of data deploy
After chatting with support, it seems to be impossible to deploy an AccountContactRelation record when IsDirect = TRUE, meaning the AccountContactRelation is between a Contact and its primary Account.
When I try deploying an Account record, Contact record and the AccountContactRelation record that joins them as top-level objects in the same deployment, I receive the error "INVALIDCROSSREFERENCE_KEY:You can't associate a private contact with an account.:ContactId --", presumably because in the order of operations, the Contact hasn't been updated with the Account lookup yet.
When I try splitting this into 2 deploys, deploying the AccountContactRelation alone as part of…

Changing API Version should make it obvious to save filter before CI Job can be saved
It's a usability bug, I think.
When you change the API version in a CI Job, the button to save CI Job greys out but has a spinning dial of 'Something happening'. Actually the system is doing nothing, it is waiting for the filter to be saved (even if the filter wasn't saved before) but this is completely unclear.
Changes then
1. auto-save filter or bring up the 'save filter' modal
2. Show a toast message saying "save filter"
3. Button should grey out with hover text of "save filter", no spinnerI waited longer than I care to admit,…

Creating branch names from JIRA summaries can cause very long path names
Gearset automatically creates a branch name from JIRA summaries. Windows paths are limited to 260 characters.

Prevent Pipeline Paths from crossing Static or Developer environments
Sometimes depending on how you setup the pipeline you can end up with pipeline paths crossing/going under static environments and developer sandboxes.
This gives the impression that they are connected when they are not.
I would like it to look like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s59BS47wEuHFA8Grb0SLdFSH00AgWw0W/view?usp=sharing
But it ends up looking like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BLFrHd0HTR9LTLSoUw_34BqAWgvDa1SO/view?usp=sharing

Removing an Updates Sandbox from the pipeline should close all associated PRs and branches
I noticed that deleting a sandbox with outstanding updates from the pipeline does not close any associated PRs. These and their branches should be removed from source control automatically. The branches are especially problematic as the GUIDs make it extremely difficult to associate them to an environment and determine if they are no longer needed.

Deploy the Name of object without truncating
Hello,
I deploy from Sandbox to Prod.
I have a custom object where the Name is 42 characters long on the Sandbox.
When I deploy, it has only 40 characters on Prod.
If I run compare, 42 on sandbox, 40 on Prod.
If I deploy again, still 40 on Prod.
I can of course change the Name by hand on Prod to 42 characters.
Thanks

Gitlab Self Managed Issues
We suspect that reading the 'weburl' response field for the specified branch from an API call to GET 'v4/projects/$projectid/repository/branches' might be causing a problem when using public Gitlab proxies.
We suggest implementing a code change to compare the domain of 'web_url' to the self-hosted GitLab domain provided by the customers. The customer's self-hosted GitLab domain should take precedence.

Allow deployment of 'Check For Matching Records' in Flows.
As part of the new Salesforce Summer ’24 release, Salesforce have added the ability to check for matching records when using a ‘Create Records’ element. We’ve used this useful feature in various locations within our new flows to identify existing contacts for example.
When deploying the flows using this feature between developer environments via Pipelines or Compare & Deploy in Gearset, we’ve noticed that this new setting within the element doesn’t get deployed and is switched off in the destination org.
In the meantime, we can manually turn on this feature in the destination org.

Allow disabling of "Caching metadata for faster analysis"
Often this stage of the process seems to take much longer (upwards of an hour) than retreiving and analysing did in the first place.
It's unclear where this is even being cached, i've been told its in my own browser but this cant be true for a CI job with no browser available.

Gearset Unit Test Monitoring ignores test methods in classes at V27 or earlier
For older orgs, one may have Apex classes at V27 or earlier. Such classes were allowed to also include testmethods.
Gearset's Monitoring job ignores these test methods leading to a false sense of security that one's org is "correct"
Example class is at V24
class Foo {
void doStuff() {}
static void testmethod myTest() {
new Foo().doStuff();
System.assert(...);
}The myTest will not be run by Gearset Unit Test Monitoring. It will be run by Setup > Apex Test Execution > Foo > Run tests

Monitoring dashboard page hangs on loading
Often, if not always, when I first load up the monitoring dashboard it hangs on the loading wheel until I refresh. Doesn't appear to be a problem on any other page.
