  1. Bulk resolve merge conflicts

    We occasionally run into a situation where there are quite a few files with conflicts to resolve. We almost always are just wanting to accept all changes from the feature (not the environment). This takes an excessive amount of time through the Gearset UI to accept changes in every file. Would it be possible to add a button accepting all changes from feature across the entire PR?

  2. Configure the "Saved Comparison Pair" to always use a specific Comparison Filter

    When managing multiple orgs, and running comparisons, the Saved Comparison Pair saves a lot of time. However, sometimes we need to use different Comparison Filters, based on which environments we are comparing.

    Instead of first choosing the Comparison Pair, then manually selecting the Comparison Filter to use, it would be great to be able to (optionally) configure the Comparison Pair to use a specified Comparison Filter.

    Example Use Case:

    When committing work from our Dev org to BitBucket, we exclude Apex Classes & Triggers, and mainly commit declarative functionality (Apex code is committed separately from our dev team). All development…

  3. Deployment pipeline view personalization

    Currently, the view in continuous integration (deployment pipeline) is sorted by ABC, which is not user friendly when there are many team members. In this case I appear last and I need to find myself in this screen.
    I suggest you to either:
    1. allow creating personal views per user, so I can see only my dev sandbox, full sandbox and production.
    2. change the scroll into a "regular" scroll, and not the current drag scroll

  4. default repository

    Allow to set a default repository when you have multiple repositories.

    1. Navigate to Compate and Deploy
    2. Select Source Control and select a VCS(in our case Gitlab Self Managed)
    3. If you have dozens of repositories they all show up on the list
    4. Need ability to specific a default repo which will be auto selected

  5. Slack notifications for non-CI deployments

    We use slack for monitoring which is great. We'd like to have the ability to setup more slack notifications for non-CI jobs.

    Additionally, we'd love to see deployment starting notifications as an option as well, to allow our greater insights into when it's coming.

  6. Enforce Promotion Approval Rules

    The current UI shows a green checkbox and allows you to attempt to promote changes between environments even if the merge request is unable to be approved. Looks like it in Gitlab there is an 'approved' attribute that may be able to be used.

    Alternatively, can have some basic rules but would like it called out its not ready to Promote in the Gearset UI.

  7. CI job merger conflicts

    When resolving CI job merge conflicts, a user has two windows to accept changes from one side of the window. Can we have an option to accept specific components changes from one side and certain changes from the other side.

  8. Add option to "run tests if X is present" on CI jobs

    At the moment Gearset only offers an "all or nothing" option ("run all tests"), which is safer but completely ruins minor and cosmetic deployments (because it then takes half an hour to deploy even the smallest, inconsequent change like a Layout change) or "apex or nothing" option ("Default") which does allow for minor deployments to go through.. but also anything that's not Apex, which is dangerous because what if I'm deploying other automations like Flows? these changes would go un-tested.

    At the very least an option for "run all tests if Apex OR Flow is present" sounds mandatory. But ideally…

  9. Flow equivalent of Static Code Analysis-esque rules

    Code Analysis rules run against Apex in Gearset. As Salesforce development continues to rely on Flows as the main tool for declarative automation, it's becoming challenging to catch known inefficiencies, known issues, and discouraged usages. It would really set Gearset a part as a deployment tool to utilize issue detection or run "rules" against Flow metadata to call out potential issues or flows not following best practices to even prevent a deployment or commit from occurring.

    Examples: SOQL or DML in a loop, the number of elements for flows (prior to api v57) or general overall complexity, lack of Descriptions…

  10. Deploy Managed Custom Filters Globally

    When we associate a custom filter with a particular CI job, and then make changes to the filter, give the user the option to push those changes to all jobs (list them out) that use that named filter.

  11. "Sync environment" automation

    On the pipeline, the action of "Sync environment" is currently a manual action. It could be useful to have an automation of this action (like the back-propagation) after each Production Deployment. This step is a little bit time consuming and can be easily missed. If we had an automatic creation of this synchronization PR on each CI Job it would make the processus more fluid.

  12. Button for 'All the Differences' that gives all additions, deletions, and changes

    I'd love to have a button for 'all the things' (new, changed, and deleted). Currently, every time I run a compare, I use the All button and then turn off 'No Difference' on type.

  13. Provide Audit Report of Org Connections and Who Access Has Been Delegated To

    It would be great if we could pull an audit report that shows all of our Salesforce connections that are set up in Gearset and who has been delegated what level of access to each of them. This would help us to prove out segregation of duty for auditors by showing who has ever had access to deploy to production.

  14. 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.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. Add issues from the problem analyzer to the comparison list

    When I find issues in the problem analyzer, if I accept them, they only add the things that I have selected, but I can't add any related elements without going back to the comparison.

    For example, if I miss a custom field in the comparison, but the problem analyzer flags it, I don't have any way to add the permissions for that field.

    Instead, I have to go back to the comparison and add that missed field and then it's related features (this is a big problem if the analyzer flags a number of issues).

    Having a button in the…

  19. Associated Work Items through Commit message

    As a Developer, I want to use a unique ID from the work item I am working on
    when I make a GearSet commit
    So the work item I am working with (like Jira) can have a comment stating it was deployed
    and I don't have to manually go to a separate process to update the ticket.

    Say my work items are in jira and I am working user story 100.
    There is a Jira ID that is unique to that work item.

    When I specify a commit
    instead of going through the separate process to find the work item…

  20. Make Pipelines a Top-Level Menu Item

    This is a less-good, but arguably easier to implement, version of my request for customizable landing pages. It takes a few clicks to get to pipelines and, since it's the place I live most often inside of Gearset these days, I'd love it if it was a menu option that is parallel to "Continuous Integration" so I could get there in fewer clicks.
