Use exact filters of Automated Job
Currently automated CI job filters are unique to that job and not available as a filter for manual jobs.
Ability to use the exact current job filter as a filter outside of the CI job.
Ability to to clone the CI Job filter into a new named filter.1 vote -
Show In-Progress Validation jobs when clicking 'Details' in GitHub PR
When viewing a GitHub PR and you have a status check that's in progress, clicking 'Details' should take you to the validation only job page and show all validations (including those in progress).
Currently this page only shows you completed validations which makes it confusing to use at first and you have to navigate to 'Continuous Integration' and find the validation job there.

Consistently position the Source > Target UI element
In the various screens of a comparison + deployment, the Source > Target element jumps around:
- Top of the page for the Comparing... page
- Middle of the page for the Compare page
- Top-left for the Comparison Summary page
- Top-right for the Deployment page
- Middle of the page for the Deployment Results pageDuring this process, I am constantly double-checking to make sure that I am using the correct Source & Destination environments so as not to make a mistake. Instead of scanning the entire screen to see where this is annotated, I would like to…

Display more workflow subcomponents under Workflow for Metadata filter
Currently, two sub-components display under Workflow when selecting metadata types within a filter.
- WorkflowAlert
- WorkflowRule
There's more sub-components than those two and I'd argue that there's two that are frequently used that should be included for visibility
- WorkflowFieldUpdate
- WorkflowOutboundMessage
There's 2 more, but these may be used less frequently and not needed for visibility
- WorkflowKnowledgePublish
- WorkflowTask

no difference report
Currently the deployment report that is attached to the Jira ticket includes all "No Difference" components which I don't believe provides any real value. In my instance, this includes endless amount of pages, from what I can tell the changed values I'm actually looking for don't actually exist. I would suggest either excluding from report all together or providing a summarized statement that is just a grouped item for all items that were included in deployment but had no change. Also the report should bring the actual changed items to the top of the report like it is on the…

Github: Ability to select Reviewers for pull requests created in Gearset
Currently, you can create a PR after a successful deployment in Gearset. You're able to provide a description and even select it as a draft.
However, the only potentially necessary field that's missing is "reviewers". This means any CI/CD setup you have that requires an approval requires the user to go into Github just to add the reviewer.
Since Gearset would have all the team members (and those with linked github accounts), it seems it might be an opportunity to select based on that list and pass the linked username on to github in the PR creation to keep end…

Select source control based on actual setup/connections when starting comparison
When starting a comparison and selecting source/target environments for Source Control - it shows all connection types including those that I haven't connected.
With browser cache, it seems to remember the one you selected last. However, for new users (or when you clear cache) it'd be ideal if Gearset would default your source control on this screen to whatever the user has connected. Once a user has connected a source, there's no sense in having the user choose it again at this step.

Show/Flag what unlocked package elements are getting updated on Monitoring Jobs
When you look at the details of a monitoring job there is a field called "Packages Afftected" that shows green when is 0 and orange when >0.
There is a description that says...
Unlocked packages have been modified. View the comparison to see details.
However, when you look at the details there is nothing there to see what unlocked package element was modified. So the warning it is not very helpful at all.
Can this be implemented so that the warning is actionable.

Global Search feature
It would be very useful to have a Global Search feature within Gearset. This would be used to search the contents of all metadata objects.
My use case is that sometimes a string has been hardcoded inside a function. The only way to find the function that contains the string is to manually trace through the code. The global search would indicate the function that contains this string.
Another benefit would be to track dependencies for metadata objects that don't support dependency tracking. For example Aura Components, we could search for the component name.

Support JWT authorization to DevHubs
If Gearset could authorize the DevHub using a JWT (requires DevHub to have a Connected App and Gearset to be given the clientId + server.key + username) ...
Then:
* Scratch orgs created by Gearset could be accessible to any other machine provided that machine is using the sfdx force:auth:jwt:grant command (same clientId, server.key, test.salesforce.com, and username of scratchOrg)
* This is a prerequisite to any outgoing webhook that wants to auth against the CI scratch org
* This is a convenience feature to IDE users who want to auth against a Gearset-created scratch org without having to get a…1 vote -
The Action Order in the XML should follow the sortOrder
Sometimes there is a difference between a object because the order of the platformActionListItems are different. Sometimes an item with order 0 comes first, but it is possible that an item with 9 comes first. This is probably an error in Salesforce API, but Gearset should order this list before the comparison so 0 will always be the first item.

Migration/Deployment Path
In cases where you have multiple environments, provide an option to define a migration/deployment path; ability to define what environment is the source and what is the target. This will be useful in cases where we have requirement to deploy changes to say production from a specific environment (UAT).

Workflow failed to deploy without error, due to standard object dependency
In a CI job : Validation shown as success & Deployment shown as success. But actually no workflow deployed due to it being removed in the Problem Analyser.
The Problem Analyser triggered due to the (standard) object, that the workflow depends on, not being in the comparison results.
In a traditional deployments object is not needed to deploy WF, that too standard object. I feel it is a gap - problem analysers should never fire on object dependency.

Workflow failed to deploy without error, due to standard object dependency
CI job : Validation shown as success & Deployment shown as success.. but actually no WF deployed. Saying Opportunity object doesn't exist in target just because it was not selected in the components. in a traditional deployments object is not needed to deploy WF, that too standard object. I feel it is a gap.

Automatic retry for Unknown Error in scratch org creation
When creating a new scratch org from either the Gearset UX or via a CI job, one often gets the Unknown Error message
Gearset should attempt to retry this error as often, a simple retry works. This is especially important for CI jobs which should not have to be attended to manually.
Of course, the better solution is to not get this error at all

Make CI-created scratch orgs more usable by downstream webhooks
If a CI job creates a scratch org ; and you configure an outgoing webhook in the CI configuration, the subscribers to that webhook have no way of being able to connect/authenticate to that scratch org.
The typical use case would be to run automated UX testing (Provar, Selenium)
At present, even the CI job creator can't log into the CI-created scratch org let alone any CI webhook
In addition to supporting this, there should be doc on how a downstream webhook can access the scratch org to then do useful work.

Add Static Analysis Notifications
For org monitoring, we can get a notification on either every run, or when the org changes.
Could we also have the option to get notification when the number of static analysis problems increases?

Link Static Analysis results to the code
Could we link the file names in the static analysis results to the actual code from the comparison/monitoring job?
i.e. Where the results have a list of issues per Apex class, I'd like the class name to be a link to the code for that class
Having a quick peek at the code from within Gearset can help me to diagnose whether it's a genuine problem, or something where the static analysis rules need tweaking.
If it's just the rules that need tweaking, it would be nice to be able to complete that job entirely within Gearset.

Choose Delete action per Metadata Type for CI jobs
In the past we had troubles deploying reports via CI, they were not showing/deploying, the workaround was to enable the filter to include all reports. This works to solve that, but now I am looking at including more into the repo and start using delete actions in the CI jobs as well. The downside is that because we have to have all reports in the filter, the CI job will delete reports created by users in non-private folders. A freedom we want to give certain users in Production.
What would be an epic enhancement (and solve this challenge) is if…
