  1. Add the ability to add "Shared Mailboxes" to "Deployment Notification."

    It would be logical to have the ability to add a shared mailbox to the "deployment notifications" for individuals.

    The current logic is that you need to add a user, however the only way to do this is create a SF user in a DEV org for the shared mailbox which is not clean or logical for a mechanism of a notification.

  3. Microsoft Teams CI Deployment Job Notifications - Add Source Commit

    There should be parity with the content included with a Teams web hook notification. With Slack, the Source Commit attribute is included.

    With Teams, it's omitted. Please add so this data point is available with Teams. Current output illustration.

  4. Ability to remove PR's from a created release

    WHen working with pipelines, when we create a release and we merge PR's to the release so we can then deploy later, it would be nice if we have the option to remove them in case someone change their mind instead of cancell release and srtart over

  5. Fix CI PR Search Bar

    The Search Bar in the CICD Pipelines appears to be using a custom matching logic that is awkward at best and outright misleading at worst. I start searching for a PBI with a term like '1093' and get 1 result, In then add an additional 3 to it ('10933') and am presented with 3 results, none of which have the term '10933' anywhere in them.

    The algorithm appears to chunk parts of the search value and then 'fuzzy match' using each 'chunk' of string. So by adding a 3 to 1093, I was all of the sudden searching for all…

  6. Give CI/CD Users the option to use a shared webhook or a new one in BitBucket

    Gearset recently updated its automated webhook setup for new CI/CD jobs to use a shared webhook. For my team, we have configured each webhook for validation jobs to only run on PR creation/update and deployments to only run on branch pushes. By forcing the new jobs to a single shared job, it causes PR merges to trigger validations alongside the deployment (Which is time-consuming and needless).

    Also, as my team has many legacy webhooks for our existing jobs, when we add a new job it seems Gearset randomly assigns it to an existing webhook. For our recent deployment-only job, it…

  7. Audit API - Production Filtering

    From a compliance perspective, we only need to ingest production changes. It appears there are fields like 'SalesforceOrgType' on Anonymous Apex Endpoint and 'TargetMetadataLocationType' on Deployments Endpoint.

    It would be great if we could filter those, even better if you could bring in Production Org ID / Name into that filtering ability and in response as well.

  8. having a Release Manager role within a Gearset team

    I want the ability to set specific users as release managers and only these users can deploy to a production org. Only this role should be able to create a direct authentication to production. Other roles should be blocked to create a direct authentication to production or blocked from selecting production as a target org.

  9. Deploy Now and Validate Package Buttons

    Presently, the Deploy Now and Validate Package buttons are positioned adjacent to each other. Occasionally, there is a risk of unintentionally selecting the Deploy Now button before the package has been validated. This can result in potential issues arising. To address this, I recommend the following actions:

    1. Enable the Deploy Now button only after the Validate Package process is successfully completed.
    2. Consider repositioning the buttons within the User Interface if both buttons share the same screen.
    3. Alternatively, place the Deploy Now button after the Validate Package screen in the sequence.

    Thanks.

  10. Need to be made aware and/or given the opportunity to view the totality of the changes prior to deployment

    Heres what happened, we deployed the Metadata AND a ChatBot. As part of our deployment, we manually updated the metadatas to contain PROD relavent info (instead of ACC info that was pushed from ACC Branch)

    I also discovered that there were duplicate utterances in the Chatbot which we had to remove via manual DML deletes to ensure that the Data Model was built properly.

    Then, we wanted to deploy just a Field change, and did so by merging a PR containt just the Field Change into main in Azure. This, obviously, triggered a deployment and in that deployment, the metadata…

  11. Allow download of XML files from the comparisons page

    In some instances, we have to use the Metadata API to download XML files for analysis. However, the Metadata API is a pain to use. Even Salesforce recognizes this and suggests using a migration tool like Gearset to extract these: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.246.0.api_meta.meta/api_meta/file_based.htm

    Since Gearset retrieves these files during comparison, it would be great if there was an option to download them to a zip file directly.

    Note: There is already a "Download Package" feature on the deployment page. However, we obviously can't add items to this page if there is no change between the orgs. So, if a similar feature were…

  12. Attach specific Tests to Feature Branch Manually

    I would like to have the ability to force a features jobs to run specific test(s) from the CI screen.

    So if GS fails to detect a test class (either by error or b/c its not named in the expected convention) OR would have failed to catch breaking changes elsewhere, we can avoid/prevent this attaching a set of test classes to that feature branches deployment configuration in GS.

  13. Ability to use include/exclude patterns for Apex tests

    Now we can only have patterns to match test classes to include.
    Would love to have ability to use include/exclude patterns (like for comparisons).
    We have many tests which we don't want to execute within CI jobs. These could be from (stable) 3rd party libraries like FFLib.

  14. Ability to download/restore data in bulk

    We deleted 40 000 records, now we want to download data from the backup for all of them. I can filter them, select for which I want to get it and download, the challenge is, that only 500 records are loaded by default and I can load more in a batch of 500. A lot of clicking to see all of them.

  15. Add the ability to back up Salesforce Change sets

    While we use Gearset for our change sets, we have time where a 3rd party developer or a new admin uses standard Salesforce Change sets. We have had an incident where Hyperforce wiped out all of our change sets in all sandboxes, it would beneficial to add the ability to the backup to back up change sets

  16. Pipeline Sync Environment & Dev Environment

    Currently we only have the ability to sync static pipeline environments. This is well and good but unfortunately syncing the Project branch can be time consuming and confusing Its not as simple as syncing the static environment.

    I suggest when I sync the static environment , the sync action automatically opens a back propagation PR to the Dev environment its connected to. Also this sync action should close any pending open PRs against that dev environment that overlap with the sync PR.

  19. Update Deployment Functionality for Education Cloud Standard Picklist

    Currently, Education Cloud standard picklist field values are able to be deployed to production. However, the deployment lacks the ability to define active or inactive picklist values. The workaround is to manually activate and deactivate these values after deployment.

    This functionality was recently changed on 8/17/2023 for the Academic Session Season and Academic Session Type fields. Requesting the change to be made for all of these fields.

  20. Indicate from Gearset if a deployment is eligible to use Quick Deploy

    I would like to be able to see from Gearset if a deployment is able to utilize Quick Deploy. This would be particularly useful for releases to production as we release after hours and our unit tests can take many hours to run. Knowing that Gearset will use Quick Deploy will increase our confidence with our release and reduce mental load knowing that the deployment will be much more likely to succeed.
