Deploying Profiles - Create, Update, Delete
I have noticed that in some scenarios, user profiles cannot be created, deleted or updated. In addition, some pieces such as user license cannot be updated due to the Salesforce architecture. To create a new profile with a specific license, we would have to clone an existing profile that has the correct license and then update the permissions accordingly. When deleting a profile, first we need to ensure that the profile is not associated with a user (it doesn't matter whether the user is active or inactive) and then the profile can be deleted. When updating a profile, based on…

Support deleting comparison data
Having the comparison history is a great feature, but it would be very beneficial to be able to delete any data in the system, especially when working with a trial account. Part of testing could include working with test environments that you don't want to persist after going live. Also, peace of mind when ending the trial that your data has been removed.

Allow deployment of Sharing Rules by Rule not by Object
In change sets we can pick individual sharing rules to push (specific ones on an object). However through gearset we can only push the whole object.

Cancel deployment in progress
In Salesforce, you can cancel a deployment in progress: Maybe because a test has failed already and you don't want to bother running the rest, or because you forgot some things.
Can we have a cancel button while a deployment is in progress in Gearset? The metadata api seems to support it:

Provide a way to deploy push topics
We have a push topic that we use but there is currently no easy way to deploy changes between orgs. Would it be possible to do this via Gearset?

I need TeamCity to kick off a deployment within GearSet when all my auditing constraints are met.
We currently have a deployment pipeline for our .net and Rails environments that utilize VersionOne, GitHub, TeamCity and Ansible to deploy changes into AWS.
Due to auditing constraints we would like to use VesrionOne, GitHub and TeamCity to deploy our SF changes.
Does Gearset interact with these tools or must it stand on it's own?2 votes -
Chatter posting to
I think it would be useful if Gearset had the capability to make a chatter post to a specific group or @mention someone.

Provide a way to init a sandbox
It would be nice if there was a quick way of init'ing a new sandbox that matches either what was in source control or an existing sandbox.
Currently, I need to run a comparison between the existing source and the new sandbox and then I can try the deploy, but it would be nice if the compare step was not needed and I could simply say 'overwrite what is in the sandbox with what is in the specified source'

Field Tracking Analyzer message is misleading
If source org includes a new custom field with field history tracking enabled TRUE, the deployment analyzer reports the following when deploying to target org:
'Fields with history tracking enabled cannot be deployed before it is enabled on the object. You should remove these history tracking changes from the deployment'
Specific use case was object OrderItem
Analyzer can clearly detect if field history is enabled on target org object (which it was) - message is spurious.
Analyzer can arguably detect that target org's limit (20) will be exceeded by the deployment of the selected custom fields (which could add/remove field…

Here's the best solution: Be able to quickly select the custom objects and standard object custom fields AND only the related metadata items
Would like to be able to quickly select the custom objects and standard object custom fields AND only the related metadata items to make then function correctly (permissions, layouts, field level security, etc..)
Then we could go back and migrate all the process automation stuff - workflow rules, flows, trigger, etc..
It always starts with the data schema first. We need a quick way to see what is different between two orgs and get that synced first

Include both dates on comparison export
The sheet exported from a comparison currently includes only one date column. It is unclear which org this refers to. It would be great if it included two columns (one per org) so that one didn't have to individually look up the item to determine which version is newer.

Provide a way to get the debug logs of failing tests
Sometimes my tests are failing when they run during the automated run at night, but, when I log in and run the tests manually, they pass. I can see the failure stack trace, but I was wondering if there is any way to keep/view the debug logs from the failed tests so I can try to understand why they fail at night, but work during the day?

Modify the email address for manual deployment notifications
Being able to modify the default email address for deployment notifications, as for automated jobs, would help keep the others in my team notified of any manual deployments we run.

Ability to pause subscriptions for inactive users
Manage users on "My Team", so we can activate/deactivate users and then save on licences that are not used until reassigned.

User Account Specific Validation Errors
When deploying objects such as reports to a Target ORG, sometimes the reports are shared with a user in the source ORG. If the user does not exist in the Target ORG, the validation throws an error. Would it be feasible to add objects, such as reports, to the Warnings / Fixes screen so we can easily select how to handle user specific dependencies? Maybe we can chose to enter a new username or simply remove the shared with permission on the object?

Differentiate XML and Code differences in the comparison
I would find it very useful if the comparison result highlighted if the difference was in the XML or the Code (or both) for each item. This would especially save time when there are a lot of differences.
7 votesThanks for the suggestion Celio.
We think this should be possible to do and are doing some background work into how to manage and display this. More details to come soon.
Thanks,

Unselect all standard profiles & related permission
Often you want to deploy Admin profile and (x) custom profiles. Compare and deploy picks up hundreds of entries for standard profiles which are surplus to requirements. A single click way would be veryuseful.

Specify tests to run on the test monitoring jobs
Some of my orgs have many tests, and I don't always want to run all of them on a daily basis. Being able to specify which tests are run daily would be great.

"Changed on" date on source control side of comparison does not show
We have no way of knowing when the files were last changed on the source control side. Tried only with BitBucket though.
10 votesThat is something we should definitely show. We’ve added it to our investigation list to see if it can be added into the app.
Thanks,

Provide option to disable parallel apex testing in Scheduled Tests
Scheduled Test runs can fail due to UNABLETOLOCK_ROW errors. This is due to what amounts to a bug in SF: accessing public custom settings in tests which are run in parallel can cause deadlocks. Really, the tests ought to be isolated from each other, but they are not. See:
The workaround in SF is to disable parallel apex testing.
If Gearset could do that during the scheduled test run, it would prevent false test failures.
I guess I could change the option on the SF org, but sometimes parallel testing is useful, so I wouldn't want to…
