  1. Granular "difference types to deploy" on a metadata level

    In the CI job, we would like to have the ability to specify on a metadata level if we want to deploy new items, update items and delete items. There are examples of metadata where we always want to delete and others where we don't want to.

  2. Create new branch using type-forward / auto-complete from JIRA (or other supported tool)

    It would be great if you have JIRA connected, to make it easier to create your branch. So basically type-forward (-ish) functionality to identify a JIRA ticket and take the issue ID and description as branch name.

    Say your JIRA ticket is ISSUE-1234 Implement this awesome feature.

    The default branch name would be issue-1234-implement-this-awesome-feature.

    (Where it reads JIRA could be Azure or any other support tool of course).

  3. Include code coverage in deployment report

    Hi,

  4. Prevent Accidental Backing Out of Deployment components when Deploying Multiple Packages

    Sometimes I have multiple packages that have been validated, that I am looking to deploy. If they happen to overlap components, then deploying in the wrong order could back out a change made by the earlier deployment.
    From this I came up with two ideas that could help:

    1) The ability to select multiple validated packages or draft deployments, and click a button that will tell me if they have overlapping components. That will let me know if I have anything to worry about; if they overlap then maybe I should combine them into one package.

    2) The ability to…

  5. Option to ignore: <personAccountDefault> in XML

    When comparing XML for RecordType permissions in Profiles, some Sandboxes return:
    <personAccountDefault>true</personAccountDefault>

    As part of the XML, even though person accounts are not enabled, this makes comparing annoying.

    It would be nice to have an option to ignore this.

  6. Select All Option in Deployment history

    It would be nice if we have the select all option in the deployment history to select multiple packages to combine in one go and deploy as one package into target.

  7. The ability to deploy only certain fields in a record type and not all fields

    If we want to promote a change to a single field in a record type, we're unable to because the file is pushed in it's entirety. We'd like the ability to view from list of available changes in a record type by field and select just the changes to the fields we want to promote.

  8. resize column widths on "deployment history" page (no truncated values)

    On the deployment history page, the column widths are fixed. If you have a value in the "friendly name" column that's over a certain character count, it gets truncated automatically. there is a tool tip to see the full value by hovering, but if you use consistent naming standards for naming deployment packages, this can result in having to hover over many package (i.e. rows) to find the one you want.

    if making the column width customizable isn't possible, then making the "friendly name" column character limit longer would be a good start!

  9. Rename the Name bar in compare and deploy to : Name (api)

    Simple to implement, just a string rename...
    Rename the Name bar in compare and deploy to : Name (api)
    It would show clearly that the name displayed there is the API name, not the "label" name XD

  10. Allow masking of State and Country to recognize API values

    If the State and Country lists have been updated so the API values are set to ISO country codes the Masking of those fields during a data deployment does not work.
    Data Load errors: '"FIELDINTEGRITYEXCEPTION:There's a problem with this country, even though it may appear correct. Please select a country/territory from the list of valid countries.: Billing Country:BillingCountry --"'

    Disabling masking works around the issue.
    It would be great if the application could check the State/Country list and utilize the API values for masking.

  11. Store List of Objects Downloaded in Data Download History

    Given that the actual download files for Data Download expire after a short amount of time (which is completely logical), it would be beneficial to be able to know what objects were included in the data downloaded, and potentially any filters used.

    The main reason behind this is from a security stand point, if an employee with access were to go rouge and decide to download sensitive data to sell/take with them, there is no way of telling what kind of data they may have if you were to miss the window of the backup being available.

  12. Notification of unresolved CI job failure

    As the owner of the CI job pipeline, I would like notifications when there are ongoing failures to the CI jobs that I select so that I do not have to continually monitor the jobs as a part of my day-to-day.

    Acceptance criteria:

    1. The current-state suite of notifications on CI jobs will still be available.
    2. When a CI job has failed and the failure has not been cleared within X number of hours, the notification will be triggered.
    3. Each CI job should have blocker notifications enabled separately.
    4. Users will be able to select from SMS, email or both.
    5. Users will…

  13. Gearset Scratch Orgs: Generate Passwords

    Our team would like an enhancement to how Gearset handles generating scratch orgs from authorized Dev Hubs. We want to be able to provide log-in credentials to non-gearset users in order for them to use these scratch orgs and perform development work.

    We want our deployment manager (gearset user) to manage the provisioning of scratch orgs and the retrieval of changes in these orgs to source control. Our developers currently just focus on developing features and are abstracted from the complexities of the deployment process.

    To make this process a lot simpler for our deployment managers, it would great to…

  14. Add a Select All that works on filtered items when setting up filters

    When setting up the filters, I would like the ability to do a Select All on just the filtered items so that I don't have to manually select each one of them. This would be a huge time saver.

  15. Replicating Data should include backups as a source

    Currently its possible to replicate data from a backup job by going into the backup run and clicking replicate data.

    However, this is extra steps... its would be good if you could just select backups as a source from the data deployment screen.

  16. 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!

  18. Ignore "trackHistory" comparison if an Org has "FALSE" and Git does not define this entry

    The Salesforce CLI system returns the Custom Field Metadata XML file without a "trackHistory" entry if it is set to false. This XML entry is optional in the Custom Field metadata type. However, once we deploy such metadata to the org and execute compare between a branch and the org again, it shows differences, saying that "trackHistory == false". But is "false" by default. So I would recommend you ignore this entry if SF Org returns FALSE and the VCS file does not have this item.

  19. Filter Deployment History by Source / Destination

    At this time, there does not appear to filter deployment history by specific orgs AND other criteria in the general "filter" text box. I would like to find specific packages deployed to a specific org and also that have a standard friendly name. I am only able to enter text to filter by the friendly name and the additional filters allow for source / destination type, but it does not allow for specific source / destination.

  20. Create a Data Deployment Template for migrating Territory Management (1.0 & 2.0)

    I would like to see a gearset defined template for Territory Management in Salesforce. I am definitely in need of this functionality as it seems to be a post deployment step once you deployed all Territory Management metadata.

    in ETM 2.0 for example, after deploying the related metadata you need to deploy all related records for UserTerritory2Association Object, this contains who are the users assigned to a territory.

    Not a big template but can be a good thing to have as a preset.
