Ability to bulk download filtered records from Archived Data
We Archived over 50GB of data and business wanted to get a list of leads from the last 6 months. There were over 30,000 records and I had to click thru every page, let the page load before I could download them all. There were over 60 pages to click thru. One click button to download them all would a time saver.

Add a feature to ignore queue members when deploying queues
When deploying Queues with Gearset the members section is automatically included and the member list is deployed to the target org. Gearset has a suggested fix to sync the queue members with the target environment but it doesn't always work.
Salesforce supports deploying queues with an empty list of users as queue members are more like data than metadata I suggest a feature toggle in Gearset where the users section of the queue is ignored for deployments to preserve the user list in the destination org.
Our company and many others probably maintain the queue users directly in production as…5 votes -
Notification on job start, end with the Salesforce deployment/validation Id
When a new Job is created, it would be great to have the notification/webhook sent on start and end the job, that way, we have a monitoring outside of the Gearset on it. As well as this, to be able to build soe automations based on it

Auto-cancel the old CI/CD process on new commit pushes.
When a validation is runnnig based on PR changes, it would be great to cancel old validation job on gearset, as well as the validation on the salesforce on new commit pushes. That way, redundant jobs are not stacking to be validated and increase the CI/CD flow when multiple PRs are there

External Client App
I have been testing out the ability to promote External Client Apps through a pipeline. I found that if I include the 5 files (.eca, .ecaGlblOauth, .ecaOauthPlcy, .ecaOauth, and .ecaPlcy) that define the ECA, I receive an error of 'We couldn't update your OAuth Link...'.
But, if I edit the .ecaOauth file and remove the oauthLink tag/value then the promotion succeeds. This is an optional tag is set from the source org, and can be removed before promoting. It would be great if this was handled automatically, maybe with the problem analysis tool.

Compare UI feedback after large salesforce project
- Preserve location when switching between new/changed/deleted views. When reviewing a compare with hundreds of components, it's annoying to have to re-scroll when returning to a view. We could filter the lists, but that often means less scrolling, not no scrolling.
- Make the XML view sticky. I'm old school, but after I click on XML view 5 times, 10 times, 20 times, my default should be switched to XML.

Using GitHub Apps to Replace Service Account for Team Shared Connection
Problem Statement / Current Situation:
For enterprise security compliance, organizations are moving to a model where all third-party integrations must use pure application-based identities (like GitHub Apps) instead of user-based accounts.
Currently, Gearset's CI/CD jobs require a "Team Shared Connection," (https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/8455568-team-shared-source-control-connections) which uses a combination of a GitHub App for authorization and a separate GitHub "service account" user for commit attribution. While this is a functional workaround, it still forces us to create, manage, and secure a user entity in GitHub. This goes against modern security principles that aim to eliminate the management of all user credentials, even…

Add originating Sandbox(es) as a PR comment
It would be awesome to be able to see what Sandbox/org each commit (and thus PR) originated from. There is not many places to add the information to VCS as you can add comments only in the PR stage, but could you for example add comment to PR when promoting with the list of all commits + their origins?

Add Metadata Filter Requirements/dependencies for Deploying Product Records via CPQ
It would be really helpful if Gearset provided a dedicated document that clearly outlines all metadata filters required to successfully deploy Product records through Salesforce CPQ. Having a reference would make deployments more predictable, reduce trial‑and‑error, and improve consistency across teams especially who use pipelines. Adding this documentation to the platform would streamline CPQ-related deployments and save users significant time.

If a Branch fails to create in Github, display the error
We have enabled Rulesets in Github to enforce naming conventions. If a Gearset user tries to create a branch the ruleset will block it. Gearset then displays a generic "Could not create branch X from Y. Please try again or contact support" error to the user, but the error received from Git should include the ruleset's error message.

Visual Sync Alerts for "Commit more changes" Workflow
Summary:
Introduce a sync indicator for features in the pipeline. This would alert users when a feature branch has received additional commits (via the "Commit more changes..." button) that have not yet been promoted to downstream environments.Problem:
When an admin or developer adds metadata to an existing feature branch that is already sitting in a downstream environment (like UAT or Stage), a "parity gap" is created. Currently, the pipeline doesn't visually signal that the version in UAT is now "stale" compared to the version upstream.This creates a risk where a user might promote a feature from UAT to…

Hide unchanged fields on "Search" for Data Backup
When searchin on a Data Backup and looking at the comparison between record changes, we should be able to hide any unchanged fields in the list, to be able to look at changes quickly at glance without having to scroll up and down the full field list.

Allow multiple team members to be assigned to a single sandbox on the pipeline view
Currently a single team shared sandbox can have multiple users with delegated access. However, only one of the users can view the sandbox in a pipeline view. In order to allow multiple people to see the sandbox -
Current solutions:
- Add the same sandbox multiple times and assign each to the required team members
- Or, allow all team members to see all sandboxesSuggested solution:
- Allow multiple team members to be selected via the "Assign sandbox to team member" function.5 votes -
Allow specifying private email address when sending commits to github
Github supports hiding your address in commits by using your github private address, but this requires you to specify the private address instead of your username when creating the commit. Add a user settings that allows this to be specified when making git commits so we don't have to turn this feature off when using gearset.

Add support for Jira Service Accounts
Jira has (finally) added Service Accounts, so that full Jira users are no longer required. Would be great to take advantage of this. For reference: https://support.atlassian.com/user-management/docs/understand-service-accounts/

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…

Provide a Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Gearset
It would be really helpful if there were a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Gearset. As companies are adopting AI LLM tools as part of their day-to-day work, integrations with tools like Gearset become a necessity and MCPs are becoming more and more available, even Salesforce has support now (https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2025/06/introducing-mcp-support-across-salesforce).
As an example, we use Claude Deskop connected with an Azure DevOps MCP (https://github.com/microsoft/azure-devops-mcp) to connect to ADO. Claude helps assess priorities, organize releases, check for duplicate issues, and even identify issues that have fallen through the cracks.
Expanding on that, it would be really…

Add Link to Comparison in Gearset to VCS PRs
Include a direct link to the corresponding Gearset comparison in the description or as a comment to the PR in Github (or other VCS). This would greatly streamline the review process, particularly for Flows, because Gearset's flow diff viewer is the best way to review those XML changes. Without this link, reviewers must manually jump to Gearset and select the proper source and target to perform the necessary comparison.
