  1. Add "Open Branches" Tab to Development Sandbox Environments in Pipeline

    The only way to deploy an existing feature branch into a development sandbox is to perform a manual compare and deploy. Previously, we had our developer sandboxes set up as static environments which allowed us to create PRs against them for "re-deploy". This is not possible with the new Development Sandbox format. I suggest another tab be added called "Open Branches" which will allow the developers to select a feature to pull and work on in their development environment. That way we get the benefit of easy compare & deploy instead of having to manually compare and deploy. This will…

  2. precision deployment for Record types

    precision deployment for Record types is required. currently when i try to deploy a record type gearset automatically adds all the picklist fields in that object. if we wanted to deploy only record type or only selected picklist fields currently its not possible. hence, precision deployment is needed for deploying record types

  3. Allow configurable default settings for Jira integration

    Allow us to customize the default behavior for the Gearset<>Jira integration. Currently, Gearset posts a comment on the linked Jira ticket every time a commit is started and completed. This creates a lot of noise on the ticket.

    Currently the only way to customize the messages posted to Jira are on a ticket-by-ticket basis. Allowing an option to customize this at the org/pipeline level (e.g. only post a comment when a deployment succeeds) would be very helpful.

  5. Increase API call limits

    There currently is a API limit of only 10 calls per hour for the reporting and audit API's. This makes it difficult when developing and testing applications that tie into the api. In our case we use the api to pipe the data into our observability platform for reporting and dashboarding. It would be nice to either increase to something not THAT low or to have a development override option of some sort that customers to request to temporary increase. I understand the need for some limits due to having a shared cloud platform but this seems to be on…

  6. Notify when PR is automatically created (e.g. back propagation)

    Notify the developer when a Pull Request is automatically created. For example when next pipeline stage is reached and a PR is automatically created or when a back propagation PR is automatically created.
    A comment in related Jira ticket would be very helpful.

  7. Implement a Ticketing Feature

    Salesforce DevOps Center has a useful feature that allows users to create different Projects that have their own pipelines. Within each Project, you can create Work Items (similar to Issues in Jira). The user can then perform their work in a Salesforce environment and then run a comparison to associate certain changes to respective Work Items.

    From there, each Work Item can be promoted through the various environments in the Project pipeline.

    This is really helpful when working on numerous tickets/features for a given project, knowing exactly which environment each Work Item is in and the various metadata elements that…

  8. 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?

  9. 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…

  10. Improve audit API to extract list of users and their entitlements. Additionally, allowing us to provision & deprovision user access via API

    We use 3rd party tools to audit all of our user access at our company. Automating this via API instead of exporting CSV and loading that into another tool would be very beneficial. Additionally, we use that tool for provisioning and deprovisioning so if an API for that existed too, we could automate Gearset users.

  11. 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

  12. 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

  13. 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.

  14. Ability to export deployed components for specified period of time

    Instead of viewing it by deployment package, it would greatly help us to be able to export all components deployed during a specific period of time. It would help to include the following:

    Deployment friendly name
    Source
    Target
    Date and Time
    Deployment Status
    Owner
    Metadata Type
    Name
    Difference Type

  15. 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…

  17. 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…

  19. Feature vs Release, Branch De-sync

    When Gearset detects that additional changes have been made to a feature branch AFTER the feature branch was already added to a Release, strange behavior may be experienced.

    Coming from a git background, I expected anything on the release branch would be ready to go on my deployment, but that is not what happened during my release window.

    Admittedly there were some features that had changes pushed to the feature branch after perhaps the feature branch should have been closed, namely after it was on the Release branch. However there's also an argument that we should trust whats on the…
