Add a Button to Retry Validation on Updates
The new Updates feature is great, but there isn't a "retry" button when there are validation errors to resolve. It's not very intuitive to have to cancel the update and go start over to retry after fixing validation errors. Currently it just shows that the validation failed and the update can be cancelled. It isn't clear what to do after resolving the validation error, and a retry validation button would simplify the process.
I had an error related to a manual change that needed to be enabled in my sandbox, and I had to cancel the update to get it…2 votes -
Allow configuration of where pull request/merge updates are posted in Jira. User comments are being missed because of the volume of updates.
Allow configuration of where pull request/merge updates are posted in Jira. User comments are being missed because of the volume of updates from Gearset when moving a set of changes through the pipeline. These updates are important and we want to keep them, however having the ability of moving them to another tab/section on the Jira ticket would mean we could keep the comments section for user comments only.

documentation
I have been really impressed by the visualizations on the Compare and Deploy interface. Particularly the lightning page layouts and flows. One of my most time consuming tasks is creating internal documentation and I have not found a tool that allows me to capture the level of detail that I want in an efficient way. It would be great if I could export the visualizations at the bottom of the compare and deploy screen. It would be even better if it could export directly to Confluence.

Automatic sandbox updates option
The new sandbox updates process is really convenient - you can see all the updates a sandbox needs and apply one or more. However it is still very much a manual process to start it. We have a team of engineers and each one of them has to constantly go and trigger the update process manually whenever an update becomes available.
It would be really nice if there was a switch for 'Automatic updates' i.e. whenever it is turned on, the updates are applied automatically during off hours.
Of course if an update fails the engineer would receive an email…

CI jobs view improvements
Hi Team,
when opening a CI job and then expanding them, I can see a list of PRs with status 'Succeded' for two days I thought those were the successful deployments. Technical support confirmed instead that those are the PRs where the Validation Job has succeded but not yet deployed. The view is a bit confusing because for validation jobs I would expected a status = 'Passed'.
Also, when I open the 'View History' of the actual deployment job it takes me to a view where I can see the github ID but not the PR number/name. It would be…2 votes -
Offer Japan data residency
We are headquartered in Japan. Japan has data residency requirements for data backups/deployments and even metadata deployments/processing.
Please add the option for a Japan hosted Gearset account.

Assigning a dev sandbox to a member should give them deployment access
Assigning a dev sandbox to a member should give them deployment access automatically, or at the very least I should be able to give deployment access in the same interface.

Allow out of order Update deployment
Currently you can only deselect and select update elements in an order. For example I have 3 recent updates ordered 1 to 3. One being the oldest and first update and 3 being the newest and last update. The current functionality would require me to select item 1 if I wanted to also update item 2. And if I wanted to update item 3 I would have to select all the items before it.
I would like to select each one individual no matter there deployment history. Often I need to do this because the updates have no relation to…

Allow customization options for the Deployment Report file name
It would be nice to either have the option to set a default file name or allow the ability to set the report file name in the deployment screen.
For my organization, this would make sorting deployment reports for various projects much easier as the file name doesn't include the Package Label.

Make the commit hash clickable in Pipeline PR Commits tab
This is rather trivial, but also seemingly a quick-win.
In the Commits tab on the Pull Request details screen in the Pipeline, make the 7-character commit hash a hyperlink that opens a new tab into github.
It is minor, would save me 1's of seconds, but it seems like an easy win - the commit url is just {{git-origin-url}}/commit/{{7-char-hash}}

Mask data that already exists in an environment
At the moment, we know that you can mask data whilst seeding it into an environment. However, what we would like a way to mask data that already exists in an environment.
A use case is that we have a full sandbox that contains customer data that we want to mask without needing to seed the data in first.
It's a common use case for organisations that deal with 3rd party suppliers but do not want their customer data exposed to the 3rd parties. For instance, a Salesforce implementation partner is delivering a project. They need access to the environments to build and…

Update assignee for jira tickets
According to our team flow once feature is deployed to UAT environment, linked task in Jira must be reassigned to QA team lead to start testing.
Right now this is completely manual process.
It would be nice if we can specify assignee in gearset pipeline settings.2 votes -
Split Lightning Page Metadata Type
Think the Lightning Page metadata type needs to be split into 2 categories. Reason being it is the one metadata type that causes comparisons to run for extremely long times or even crash/time out. This happens because it trying to compare all of the lightning email templates users make. It would be better if lightning email templates were their own metadata type and the lightning page type was actually just lightning pages created for objects.

Display auto-merged files during Conflict Resolution
The Conflict Resolution only displays files that require manual resolution. Sometimes I want to see the files that were automatically merged without human intervention.
The only way to see this is to submit a resolution as is, then read through the file changes again to look for files that were auto merged/resolved from target instead of source.

Automatic analysis for metadata
Adopt automatic validation for API names of custom objects, custom fields, custom settings, and custom metadata types. Additionally, ensure that the "Description" field is populated to enforce documentation by administrators and developers on Salesforce metadata, including custom fields, custom objects, automation (Approval Processes, Flows, Entitlement Processes), and other applicable metadata types.

allow automatic publishing of an experience site after deployment
Just like you can automatically activate Flows in Gearset upon deployment; it would be nice to automatically publish deployments of Experience Bundles. This is especailly true for deploying Experience Bundles to staging/qa orgs but applies also to PROD.
There's an API to do this: /connect/communities/communityId/publish documented https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.chatterapi.meta/chatterapi/connect_resources_communities_publish.htm

In a data deploy, allow filtering data by previously deployed parent objects.
For example, instead of "Only deploy Opportunity records that are children of the Account.Opportunities records that are being deployed" which filters opportunities by the accounts in the same deploy. You would have two deploys. The first would deploy accounts. The second would filter opportunities by those accounts already in the target org.
This would allow you to modularize deploys. You might want to mix and match subsets of data for specific projects. It would allow working around some of the shortcomings of the account hierarchy gearset magic. If there were transient errors (like exclusive locks) you could repeat a smaller…

Ability it use SOQL to provide complex filters on Vlocity and Salesforce Metadata types to create custom Compare & Deploy Filters
I would like to have the ability to enter SOQL queries to filter Metadata types and data. Currently you can only use Object or Regex when you try to filter the data to fine tune the comparison. We are looking to do this for Vlocity and Salesforce metadata types and objects
