Allow for Simplify Differences to be performed on metadata type before showing it as "different"
Currently, Gearset performs a "Simplify Differences" on Clean data service and
Connected app before reporting these metadata types as "Changed" in the comparison results.There are other metadata types, such as "Custom field" that sometimes show up as "Changed" in comparisons because the internal order of some of the tags are different in a sandbox vs production. Re-deploying these files from one environment to the other does not "fix" these differences. Gearset provides a "Simplify Differences" toggle in the UI that shows there is no effective difference with the file.
It would be nice to provide a configuration toggle for…

Option to Export Full Comparison (Including JSON Metadata Differences)
Currently, when exporting a comparison from Gearset, the CSV includes a list of all items from the comparison. However, the export does not include the JSON data that represents the metadata differences between environments.
It would be extremely useful to have the option to export the full comparison, including the detailed JSON metadata diff.
Use case:
Our team is exploring ways to automatically generate changelogs whenever we make deployments. Being able to export the JSON comparison data would allow us to feed that information into an AI agent to generate a structured, human-readable changelog.Proposed enhancement:

Enable Excel export of org differences—profiles, permission sets, and objects—in the same side-by-side format with change indicators
I compared two profiles from different orgs—specifically, the old and new environments of the same company—to identify any differences and present them to the client for review and approval of necessary changes in the new org. However, I was unable to export the comparison results into Excel. It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to export the comparison data in the same structured and visual format as shown in the Gearset comparison window, making it easier to review and share with stakeholders.

Introduce precision deployment for Experience Sites.
We have multiple changes in train at any time across our three Orgs within our pipeline. We do not manage these changes via our pipeline due to some of the UI changes being made by Community Admins outside our Devops framework. At times we may have 3 separate features impacting a single page and we need to promote these changes separately. At the moment the Org to Org deployment takes the components in their entirety.

focus
When viewing a Comparisons results and click the filter icon in the column header to filter that column, it would be nice for the focus to be automatically placed on the filter text so it can be typed directly (without having to click on the filter text field).

Put a "Simplify Differences" toggle at the entire comparison level instead of each item
Add the "Simplify differences" toggle to be enabled at the entire comparison level so you can filter out items that don't have any actual changes besides metadata being moved around within the xml file by the salesforce API. This way, if there are items that don't have any true differences, they can be quickly filtered out at the comparison level instead of drilling into each one and having to "simplify differences".
This would help especially with custom objects, where the salesforce api moves the Action Overrides around causing the analyzer to flag objects as different between orgs, when in reality…

Pipeline Notification for Metadata filter for Missing components
If I am committing some code via pipeline, in my feature branch that includes a metadata not present in my current CI Job filter, Can I get notified from Gearset that commited/merged metadata not present in the CI Job Filter?

Make components searchable across features in the pipeline
If I know the name of a component, Can you give me a way of searching through the pipeline to see what features it resides in, where they are and when it was deployed please

Show duration for comparison jobs
While the Comparison History screen shows when a comparison job was initiated, it would be extremely helpful to display the duration of that comparison job, from when it was initiated, to when it was completed.
Ideally, this would show on the Comparison History screen, and/or on the actual Comparison screen itself after it was completed.

Have the ability to see the metadata comparison between a merge-branch and the destination environment in Pipelines
Greetings,
I would like to request the ability to see the metadata comparison between a merge-branch and the destination environment.
For example, my pipeline is setup:
Developer's sandbox --> QA sandbox --> UAT sandbox --> Production
with the repository branches (merge-branch) for each sandbox respectively:
merge-QA
merge-UAT
mainAfter a feature-branch passes its validation and is merged into the merge-QA, I would like to be able to see the metadata comparison of what is about to get deployed to the 'QA sandbox'. We have the ability to see the contents of the commit via the link to our repository hosting…

Absolutely missing: Trigger Order (It is compared in the XML)

Precision Deployments for Flow
Please add Flow for Precision Deployment. The new flow visualization has been really great and it would be very helpful to be able to use precision deployments with them.

Always sort results by Name (alphabetically) as a second-level sort
If a sort has been applied to any column other than Name, apply a secondary sort to "Name" so the rows always sort alphabetically by Name.
This is most useful when sorting by Metadata Type, I'd like the results to be grouped first by Metadata Type, but then I'd like to see the results sorted alphabetically by their name.
Even if the user is sorting by Changed On, for example - if there are 100 fields all deployed on the exact same date/time (ex. Mar 26, 2025 1:19pm), you might as well sort them alphabetically by Name as well

Add the ability to hover on the New, Changed, Deleted bubbles on the COMPARE & DEPLOY Results Screen and see the meanings
Can use the wording from the documentation :)

Allow users to choose their default comparison view
Different types of Gearset user will prefer to analyse comparisons in different ways. Some will definitely prefer the XML view; others will prefer the new simplified views.
I think it would be great if Gearset allowed users to specify their default view and comparisons load with this preference.

Add navigation into elements of LWC bundle in difference viewer
The current LWC difference viewer shows the components linearly from top to bottom - meta, css, html, js. Just like you did with the side bar navigator for layout, add a side bar navigator for the LWC bundles

Customize the columns in the Compare and Deploy view, such as replacing 'Changed By' with 'Created By
Currently we cannot modify or customize the columns in the list view. So if I wish to see the records having created by instead of last modified by then there is no direct option available on UI at 'Compare and deploy'. It is really useful to have the choice over choosing the right columns as per the deployment needs.

Add support to deploy Digital Experiences (LWR) using Digital Experience Bundle Components
Similiarly to how you can deploy metadata for non-LWR Digital Experiences (Aura templates), where you can select different metadata changes individually using Experience Bundle Components, rather than deploying all your changes at once, it would be great if that option is available for Digital Experiences running on LWR (Digital Experience Bundle)

Deployment version control of Process Builders
This is for Process Builders. Add a feature to allow users to select which version of the process builder to deploy. Similar to what is available for lightning flows. I realize that Process Builders are going away. However, this feature would be helpful as many orgs sill have to manage them.
