Prevent Pipeline Paths from crossing Static or Developer environments
Sometimes depending on how you setup the pipeline you can end up with pipeline paths crossing/going under static environments and developer sandboxes.
This gives the impression that they are connected when they are not.
I would like it to look like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s59BS47wEuHFA8Grb0SLdFSH00AgWw0W/view?usp=sharing

Darkmode option
It would be really helpful having a dark mode of gearset UI. A big number of devs prefer dark mode over bright mode. Since gearset is a tool mainly used by devs, would be good to give to devs the option to customize their UI.

Automating/Scheduling DevSandboxUpdate aka Back promotions in gearset pipeline
Automating/scheduling DevSandboxUpdate, aka back promotions in the gearset pipeline, sometimes it becomes challenging for developers to update their sandboxes whenever there are frequent releases to production in a short span of time.
1 voteThis is currently planned for later this quarter and next.
Users will have the option to:
- Bulk update selected dev sandboxes
- Automate developer sandbox updates; they will be immediately tried as and when ready
If users want to automate dev sandbox sychronization now, they can use CI jobs to deploy changes from their desired source of truth - this comes with some risk of affecting work in progress though.

Add more information regarding team shared metadata filters
Hello, I have the following suggestion.
When a team shared filter is created, it would be a good idea to see who is the user that initially created it.
Also, it would be beneficial to see who last modified it and when was it last used.When we have a lot of team shared filters, such functionality will greatly help with the clean up efforts.

Install managed package from sfdx-project.json
I would like to get the possibility to track my managed packages and their versions in the sfdx-project.json file and automatically install it from this file. Could this be a possibility?

Add sharing to comparison view
When you look at the comparison of the list view the "shareto" metadata is not available in the nice clean view. Its only available in the XML view.

I would like to download a CSV file from any stage in the Pipeline that includes all the PR details.
I wanted to know the PR's that are pending between the pipeline environments, so I copied the screen data into a spreadsheet and had to spend time to make it usable. I used the information to understand the outstanding work by team (we follow naming conventions for our work), identify stranded stories from departed developers, and have a deeper understand into the backlog. I am using the information to talk to the pod leaders discussing process improvements, release timing/scheduling, and other operational improvements.

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

view only user
A free "View Only" user role
We have setup notifications on changes for specific use cases - eg. all changes to custom fields only.
We have configured these to send to Slack and Teams channels - but detailed information has to be surfaced in Gearset.
We would like to give "view" access to many users for the comparison result in the notification, and no other permissions. This should not encroach on the licenced user count.1 vote -
Create a functionality which can Export all the Open PRs for Pipeline
Dear Gearset Team,
We recently encountered a challenge where we had approximately 250 open PRs in production. To streamline the process, we needed to submit a report listing all open PRs, which were then reviewed by the Dev team. If a PR was deemed unnecessary, it needed to be declined. Additionally, some tickets were withdrawn, which required the associated PRs to be declined as well.
Currently, this task requires us to manually open each PR, copy the PR link, add the story linked to the PR, and include the assignee of that story. We then input all this information manually…

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.

Adaption of Deployment frequency of CI jobs
While setting up a CI job, I recognized there are only automatization options up to every 24 hours, which is once a day. Currently there is no possibility to deploy e.g. every second day or even more important to us, every week/ every second week. Please add this possibility when adding CI jobs, to have a slower Deployment cycle to e.g. demo sandboxes, that don't need daily deployment.

Add stacktrace column to Test Outcomes
There is no Stacktarce information on the Test Outcomes from the Unit Testing page. That information is important to help the developer team investigate the issues.

Audit history on Data Backup Jobs
For SOX compliance, we backup our Salesforce production data with Gearset. However, there is currently no way to determine the last time the job was modified. If at the bare minimum we had the last modified date & the user that modified the job, we would be able to confirm for the auditors that no changes have been made. Ideally, we would have tracking on the job for the different features - adding or removing objects, cadence of job, etc. For now, we're having to do a manual review.

Add testing steps to Jira ticket
Like the new feature for adding pre/post deployment steps, it would be good to be able to add testing steps to a feature in gearset.

Post pull request descriptions to linked Jira ticket
It would be good to have the ability to post pull request descriptions to the linked Jira ticket of a feature. Currently there is limited visibility of the pull request description as its only visible in the code repository, therefore it would be good to see it on the jira ticket as a comment.

I would love to be able to edit the name of a feature while it is in progress in the pipeline.
We include the release date as part of the feature title, but sometimes the release date changes after we create the feature and while the feature is still in the pipeline. It would be great if we could update the name of the feature at any point up until deployment to production.

Add Pre/Post Deployment steps for Data deployments
Some data deployments require manual steps pre and or post deployment.
Scenario we had was that a rule for whatever reason couldn't be turned off by GS so I had to manually switch it off or the deployment failed then back on after it deployed,
