  1. Bring back the Suggested Fixes in Problem Analyzer to suggest permissions for fields when moving a new field.

    Previously if you selected to migrate a field, Problem Analyzer would suggest the permissions. Now it only shows up on Warnings tab. This forces you to go back to the Comparison and individually find the permissions for each field. It should include these as Suggested Fixes. Additionally, if a field is listed as a Suggested Fix, the permissions for that field should be included as Suggested Fixes as well.

  2. edit problem analyser template

    There should be an ability to edit the existing Problem Analyser Template. Else, one has to create the whole template again, re-do the changes on the template and then re-assign on all the existing Jobs which should use that template.
    It is definitely going to save a lot of time and be beneficial overall.

  3. Allow CI jobs to use the running users GitHub connection

    At the moment CI jobs within the Pipeline use the CI owner's GitHub account for new branches and pull requests etc which is stopping the code reviewers process within GitHub from working currently.

    Can we allow the integration within Pipelines to run on the promoting user's connection (i.e. so requests are shown with the running user and not CI Owner within GitHub) or allow a generic user to be set up instead to untie deployments from the CI owner GitHub connection within Gearset.

  4. Allow users to select custom fields even if the object does not exist in the target

    Would be great if GS allowed to select custom fields when doing a comparison even if the object does not exist in the target. If I am pushing changes to a repository I might want to only include the fields I created/modified and not the whole object.

  5. Show all Github requirements to merge in the Gearset pull request view.

    We have required approvals enabled on PRs in Github. Currently when viewing a Pull Request in the Gearset Pipelines view, it does not show that a PR is blocked from being merged because at least one code review approval is needed in Github. This leads to accidentally attempting to "promote" in Gearset and then the Pull Request merge fails. We would like to see these (and any other Github requirements) showing up in Gearset so we are informed which PRs are approved and ready to promote.

  6. Enable a consistent, buildable set of Metadata for Releases

    I'd like to have a way to work with a consistent set of metadata items for a release, that I can add, remove etc, and consistently deploy into a variety of sandboxes and ultimately Production.

    Currently, if you clone a previous deploy, items are de-selected if they're the same between the environments being compared. That means once I've deployed, I can’t ever get that “list” of items back and I have to rebuild it every time.

    A likely scenario is that I've deployed some metadata from Sandbox A -> B. Lets say it's 5 Apex classes. I then realize that…

  7. Gearset Service Status Page

    It would be very useful to see a status page for Gearset services. Similar to other service platforms like Github (https://www.githubstatus.com/) or Salesforce trust (trust.salesforce.com)

    This would be great to help determine if there are issues with deployments, or if Gearset has any sort of performance degradation.

  8. language

    Gearset UI Language specification. Allow users to specify which language they want the UI presented in and then show the correctly translated terms in that language. When using google to translate the UI the words it chooses are not always relevant.

  9. backup expiration

    For compliance purposes I'd like to request an option to list the data backup expiration date. We are able to choose how long to retain the backup, but I do not see a place that lists when the backup is set to expire.

  10. Allow Quick Deploy when merging multiple PRs using Pipelines

    currently when merging multiple prs using pipelines the merged package validates and then the prs are merged, the resulting deployment then revalidates even though quick deploy is an option, can we use quick deploy when available like was enabled in the ci jobs?

    this would save time by avoiding double validation and make the feature more usefull.

  11. Validation job when PRs are raised

    Requirement :
    Provide option to create a CI Validation Job only with "Validate pull requests targeting the source branch" and keep "Run Job" dropdown as optional .

    As Of Now :
    When we raise a PR, it initiates feature branch validation ( cos, we enabled "Validate pull requests targeting the source branch" ), and after that when we merge feature-branch to target branch, it re-initiates another validation job.
    For us, it's like similar validation is running twice on different events from which we can't opt out.

    Pros :

    We can handle when to validate a feature branch, instead of bundling…

  12. Consolidated Reporting for CI Jobs

    Hello. One item we struggle with is keeping track of CI Deployments that didn't fail, but didn't deploy as expected. The two causes we usually see are:

    1) Something was removed by problem analyzer
    2) We deployed something that Salesforce says succeeded, but no changes were made (e.g. deletion of picklist choices)

    We currently have about 100 CI jobs which makes it impractical to go into each one.

    The proposed format would look like a csv export:

    Job Name, Date, # Created, # Updated, # Deleted, # fixed by problem analyzer

    Opening a CI job history looks fine, but we'd…

  13. Add the option to schedule weekly, monthly and yearly backups

    To meet our backup compliance requirements I'd like to suggest an option to schedule weekly, monthly, and yearly backups to go along with the daily backup option that is currently available. This way, we could setup multiple backup tasks with different retention.

    Thanks

  14. When Problem Analyzer adds Fields, Add Profile Permissions Too

    Currently the problem analyzer will identify missing fields. However, it doesn't prompt or allow you to add the permissions for the fields. So, you either have to go back, manually add all fields as Selected, or push the package and then go back manually and add permissions for all fields. It should prompt to add both the fields and the permissions.

  15. Analyzer: Duplicate child relationship name detection

    Use case -

    target org has child object O lookup field F1 with childRelationship = Foo
    source org has child object O lookup field F2 with childRelationship = Foo

    If you deploy, SFDC tells you that there is already a Child Relationship Foo on O

    Analyzer could detect this and warn developer before deployment

  17. Automate creation of a release, which includes several stories

    Within pipelines, provide the ability to validate multiple Pull Requests (PRs) in one shot (i.e. release), so that this release could be deployed to production, for example, using Salesforce's Quick Deploy feature. This would be very handy when getting ready for a production release and I need to validate my release the day before. Thus, on the day of the release, I would simply Quick Deploy it.

  18. Provide account owners ability to control and lock certain features for team

    Currently, there are some settings that we would like to turn on or off for the entire team. For example, the "Append Validation/Deployment items to ticket" toggles when doing a deployment. It is also unclear that when a team member changes these, they are changing the setting for the entire team, which leads to inconsistent Jira tickets, as some list the components and some do not.

    We would like the ability for account owners to control these settings for the team and lock their ability to be changed by team members.

  19. Copy reviewers to the cloned promotion branch PR in Pipelines (Bitbucket)

    When Pipelines creates a promotion branch and copies a PR that was opened in Bitbucket, it does not copy the reviewers. This means reviewers have no way in the Bitbucket UI to filter for PRs that they're assigned to review.

    Further, since all the cloned PRs are authored by the Pipeline owner, the lack of reviewers on top of that makes it quite difficult to visually differentiate between the list of open PRs, especially if you're both someone who creates & reviews PRs.

  20. Provide More Detailed Information on Data Deployment Summary Steps

    Currently the data deployment summary displays an elaborate interface but with very little useful information other than record counts. On the right side are Steps, but those steps do not tell the user much. I can see that in one step x records were fetched, for example, and in another step y records were fetched, but I can't see WHY.

    Example use case: I had a situation where I was filtering an object but the filter wasn't being honored (more records were being deployed than expected). I could see from the data deployment summary that one of the steps was…
