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…

Make pre/post deployment steps conditional on developer sandboxes.
Pre/Post deployment notes can be set to pertains to various static environments but they always apply to sandboxes after a back deploy. This should be conditional-- most of the time I only set them applicable to prod and they aren't applicable to developer sandboxes.

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…

Improve UI of Analyser, 'Some items reference components that aren't in the target'
This analyser, does provide suggestions on metadata items to be included, but it does not mention the why.
Today I got the suggestion to include something, which I had no intent to include, but I could not find WHY, Gearset would like me to add this to the deploy.
Providing the reason, makes it easier to adjust the deployment, maybe remove an item, or uncheck something I accidently added to the deployment.

Provide the ability to get a deployment report on multiple deployment packages
Instead of having to download the deployment report individually for multiple deployments, I would like to be able to select multiple deployments and download one report that contains a list of all files that were deployed as part of the multiple deployments. It is too cumbersome to manually download a report or .csv for each deployment and then copy/paste the info into one location so that I can get a comprehensive list of all files that were deployed.

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.

Don't mark data deployment as successful if some records were excluded due to invalid picklist values
Currently if you deploy data and one object had records excluded, the top of the window says "Deployment completed successfully." However, in reality, part of the deployment was NOT successful. The only way to find out is to find that the record is missing or to slowly scroll looking for yellow exclamation. This should be extremely obvious since it's a failed deployment.

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

Dependency-Aware Deployment Sequencing in Gearset
Currently, deployments in Gearset can fail when interdependent metadata components are deployed simultaneously without respecting their dependencies. For example, deploying a new Lightning page that references a report or dashboard will fail if both are included in the same deployment, as the referenced report or dashboard does not yet exist in the target org.
While the current workaround is to manually split deployments into separate feature branches based on dependencies, a more intuitive approach would be for Gearset to detect these dependencies automatically when multiple related components are included in a deployment. The tool could then offer options to handle…

Add option to send notification to the Webex Teams for the Unit tests with the failed tests
Add option to send notification to the Webex Teams for the Unit tests with the failed tests. While setting up a new unit test job for one of our Salesforce orgs I have observed that there in no option to send the notification to the Webex Teams chats. It would be critical to our org as we use Webex.

Allow environment variables be applied to all environments except specified
Allow environment variables to be applied to all environments and specify exceptions for which they should not be applied.
For example, if an email address is stored in source control as prodsupport@example.com it should be transformed to sandboxsupport@example.com for all environments except prodcution.

After a package is validated, link to the Salesforce Deployment ID
Gearset already does this for a deployed package, that on the Deployment Summary page it shows the Salesforce ID of that deployment. Can we provide the Salesforce ID for a validation build against a Salesforce environment as well?

Clickable Jira Request within Pipeline Promotion History
I would like the ability within the pipeline promotion history to make the Jira tickets clickable. That way a user could simply click the ticket reference to navigate directly to the request.

scroll bars
Get rid of the scroll bars in the open pull requests tab caused by the queue section overflowing its bounds.
Also, allow us to post screenshots here. :\

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.

Audit changes to the "Require issue tracking" setting
As a result of a query by our auditors it would be helpful to have changes to the 'Require issue tracking' deployment setting audited. They are concerned that a team-owner could alter this to perform a deployment then reinstate it, resulting in change deployment without tracking.

Add "Open Branches" Tab to Development Sandbox Environments in Pipeline
The only way to deploy an existing feature branch into a development sandbox is to perform a manual compare and deploy. Previously, we had our developer sandboxes set up as static environments which allowed us to create PRs against them for "re-deploy". This is not possible with the new Development Sandbox format. I suggest another tab be added called "Open Branches" which will allow the developers to select a feature to pull and work on in their development environment. That way we get the benefit of easy compare & deploy instead of having to manually compare and deploy. This will…
