  1. Terse Slack/Teams Notifications

    Provide a Terse Notification format for Teams and Slack Notifications.

    Currently, the amount of information in Teams and Slack notifications is satisfactory, however the presentation in the chat app is very dense and can take some time to grok when you're browsing the history of these messages either scanning the jobs that have run over the past few hours in your channel, or just trying to understand what just happened from the push notification that went to your phone.

    Ideally, the first sentence is terse and is separated by white space from the remainder of the current paragraph format.

    The…

  2. Add the ability to add "Shared Mailboxes" to "Deployment Notification."

    It would be logical to have the ability to add a shared mailbox to the "deployment notifications" for individuals.

    The current logic is that you need to add a user, however the only way to do this is create a SF user in a DEV org for the shared mailbox which is not clean or logical for a mechanism of a notification.

  3. Audit API - Production Filtering

    From a compliance perspective, we only need to ingest production changes. It appears there are fields like 'SalesforceOrgType' on Anonymous Apex Endpoint and 'TargetMetadataLocationType' on Deployments Endpoint.

    It would be great if we could filter those, even better if you could bring in Production Org ID / Name into that filtering ability and in response as well.

  4. Make the PR Title same as the validation friendly name and deployment friendly name

    This helps us find the related validation and deployment to the CI job without having to open multiple validation/deployment records.

  5. Create a Combined view of Monitoring and Pipeline with Alerts

    Monitoring is great, but doesn't have a correlation to Gearset deployments (direct or Pipeline).

    A view of all changes to org and call-outs of which were Gearset-driven and which were manual would allow us to use Gearset more directly in SOX audits as proof of controls.

    Giving us actionable items, whether its in Gearset UI or Source Control to document review and approval of manual changes would be a huge win.

  6. Allow automated unit test execution to run tests synchronously

    When unit tests are run in parallel you can often get intermittent errors such as UNABLETOLOCK_ROW. When running tests from Salesforce you are able to specify running tests synchronously which takes longer but prevents conflicts between tests. Can this option be added to Gearset for the automated test running?

  7. Deploy monitor results changes to target org directly from the compare screen

    I get the a monitoring results email. When I click it it takes me to the comparison screen
    Right now to deploy those changes I have to go to Monitoring > Filter by name > View History > Select the right one > Deploy changes to target org.

    Those are 5 clicks to get to a place I just was in! It would be great if I could deploy the changes to the target org directly from the screenshot comparing screen.

  8. Ignore changes deployed to orgs from Gearset in Data Monitoring jobs

    I would like to be able to monitor changes made to tracked metadata in our Production org, but without the "noise" generated from normal deployment changes (made via Gearset deployments). Basically, I want to catch changes made directly to Production that are unaccounted for in source control.

  9. Consolidated Reporting for CI Jobs

    Hello. One item we struggle with is keeping track of CI Deployments that didn't fail, but didn't deploy as expected. The two causes we usually see are:

    1) Something was removed by problem analyzer
    2) We deployed something that Salesforce says succeeded, but no changes were made (e.g. deletion of picklist choices)

    We currently have about 100 CI jobs which makes it impractical to go into each one.

    The proposed format would look like a csv export:

    Job Name, Date, # Created, # Updated, # Deleted, # fixed by problem analyzer

    Opening a CI job history looks fine, but we'd…

  10. It would great to be able to monitor certain user actions, such as exporting a report in Salesforce.

    Right now, I am only aware of having to purchase an add-on from Salesforce to be able to get this information.

  11. Add the ability to report on validations and deployments via CI

    Currently, it's not possible to see a report on when a validation or deployment started and ended for a given CI Job across multiple PR's. This will help understand how long on average validations or deployments are taking for a given environment.

  12. Extend the functionality of configuring when are monitoring jobs run

    Hey,
    Currently it is possible to configure at what time during the day you we want to run the configuration jobs.

    For the org monitoring jobs, we really love that this is done daily, but for unit tests, we would love if we could configure the jobs to run the job weekly or monthly and not every day.

  13. Filter users for monitoring notifications

    Hey,

    Would be very beneficial if in monitoring tab, we could filter out users that we get the notifications about.

    For example, we don't want to receive changes that changes have been made in a Salesforce org if these changes are a deployment, but we would be interested to see if any users with Setup permissions are making changes to fields, objects etc.

  14. Restrict visibility for monitoring jobs

    I would like to be able to monitor daily changes made without those monitoring jobs being visible to the entire team. We have some super motivated people as well as the other end of that spectrum. I would like to have some data to visualize daily without the entire team seeing what I am doing.

  15. Allow team member to create unit test job based on the shared connection

    I try to create the unit test job but the org connection is available to me even it is shared to me with the deployment permission. I have to either create a new connection or let my colleague who is the owner of the connection do it now,

    Thank you!

  16. Add the ability to create some custom reporting against metadata change monitoring

    I would like the ability to report on changes for an org over a time period grouped by metadata type or user. Filters would be by data, user, metadata type, change type. Would like to export or email the report too.

  17. Update Metadata Change Monitor Report

    When you update the change monitor report metadata filters and include new metadata types, the next monitor report shows all the newly added metadata as "New Items" on the report. Although not a big deal it did cause an alarm for us not realizing it was due to the change we made prior. It would be a "nice to have" feature if either you don't include the newly added metadata types as "New Items" on the initial report or flag them and have a visible cue to indicate the items were a result of newly added metadata items on the…

  18. Launch into our Connected Organizations from various screens in Gearset tooling.

    Since we have orgs setup in the Monitoring Dashboard or simply in the list of Organizations under My Connections can we get a button that can open that org in a different browser tab ... it would be a super usefuil feature for those of us monitoring many many orgs. its like SFDX ORG : OPEN -u alias name .,..... but having that ability in the GS Tools in relevant areas ... (Monitoring, or My Connections come to mind first.) We have a mixture of DEV, Production and other scratch orgs both internal and External Clients ..... its not always…

  19. Lessen Permissions Needed To Run Monitor

    When running Monitor, a user needs to have "Modify All Data" or "Modify Metadata Through Metadata API" permissions, and "Author Apex" is further needed if we want to monitor Apex classes. I understand why an user would need these when comparing for a deployment, but for a more "read-only" use case like running Monitor, is it possible to lessen the permissions needed?

    Context: we're looking into using Gearset for auditing purposes, and the Monitor feature looks to fit our needs; that said, if in order to monitor production changes requires the user to have full deployment permissions (and author apex),…

  20. Sort Deployment Details by New, Changed, Deleted

    Currently, it seems that the list of Deployment Details provided in Successful Deployment reports is sorted alphabetically by metadata type.

    It would be easier to understand the impact of the deployment if the list was sorted first by category (Changed, New, Deleted, No Difference) and then secondly by metadata type within each category.
