Stop Off-setting Partial Selections when a Package is 'Fetched' for the Latest
Hi,
Our team creates individual draft deployment packages and then we consolidate it into one package and fetch for the latest before validating. In some of our individual draft deployment packages we are selecting partial changes to a page layout or a lightning record page but it is off-setting this partial change and we are given the prompt: 'Precision selections have been reset for these items'. Is there a way we can fetch for the latest without off-setting these partial changes?
Thanks!

View webhook pipeline settings and error history even when promoting
When any pipeline is promoting most of the options in the pipeline settings menu are disabled, e.g. 'View Webhook Errors'.
We want to be able to access these features, as we might need to reference a webhook error, and not have to wait until the pipeline is finished promoting. Our team is promoting at least one feature to one pipeline most of the day so we have to wait until after business hours to reliably access this information.

Enable use of multiple parent filters under 'Filter using parent object' in data deploys
When the “Only deploy (object name) records that are children of the (dropdown of selectable objects) records that are being deployed.” checkbox is selected on the Account object settings screen of a data deploy, only one parent record can be selected. The ability to filter by multiple fields would be useful in my org.
Use case: we have a custom object Beneficiaryc with lookups to 2 different objects: Asset_Groupc and FinancialAccountc. AssetGroupc and Financial_Accountc are both children of the Account object, so I’m able in one deploy to include Account records with all…1 vote -
I would like the ability to auto promote updates to inflight feature branches
When using feature branch promotion in pipelines, I often find myself in a scenario where I’ve pulled a new feature through the pipeline to one of my static environments. I then test it, discover something that needs to be changed, make the change in the dev environment, and pull that change through the pipeline again so it reaches the same static environment for retesting.
I would like functionality that enables me to release a new change to that branch from dev and have it automatically promote through all static environments, stopping at the current one where the original pull request…

add preview of archived files and let admin choose fields to show on the related list in Archive Viewer
Please improve Archive Viewer with a preview of the files Archived, like the current document viewer on SF and consider to add more functionalities on the related list shown on Archive Viewer, like choosing fields to show and search bar incorporated.
These functionalities are already available with other Archive apps connected to SF.

Using Back Promotion for single Environments only and selective PR's only
We normally update our developer orgs with the "update sync" function after the PROD release. However, sometimes we have changes that are build on top of each other but developed by multiple devs and therefore orgs.
In that cases, it would be nice to turn on "back promotion" but only for certain environments where it is needed and not globaly. In addition, being able to selectively create back promotions for PRs would be nice as well.
At the moment, if the feature is activated, Gearset is creating a back promotion for every PR, regardless if it is needed or not.…

Select All PRs for promotion
When promoting PRs from one environment to another in the pipeline, it would be useful to have a "Select All" option

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.
