  1. Show # differences found in comparison display

    It would be a nice feature to see the number of differences for each item from the perspective of the source org vs target org.

  2. Simple visualization showing Process Builder differences

    Assuming the high-vote count Idea for matching on latest version Process Builder flow between source and target (and not by version #) is implemented; make the visual comparison between source/target PB not solely XML.

    Process Builder in XML can't be deciphered by a human mind. Hence, a simple indented text-based visualization could be done to make it more readable

    1. Decision 1.1 Entry criteria 1.2 Immediate actions 1.2.1 action 1 details (XML here OK) 1.2.2 action 2 " " 1.3 Scheduled actions 1.3.1 scheduled action 1 (XML here OK) ...
    2. Next decision ...

    There's an implicit tree layout in the PB…

  3. Deployment of pre-valided package doesn't include accurate test counts

    We did a deployment last week and noticed that as part of the deployment report that went out that it stated the Tests Run was zero. We did a pre-validation the day before where we ran all tests with all passing.

    Could this test section on the deployment report again include/include the pre-validation tests that were run for the deployment?

  4. Filter out Custom Field differences based on Field Tracking History

    If the only difference in the field is that History Tracking is turned on, it would be nice to filter these results out.

    Running checks on our app with multiple customers, who all set history tracking differently, can create a lot of noise to filter through to find actual differences.

  5. False positives in managed code

    When I enable comparing managed packages (e.g. when I have added a field to a managed custom object), I get lots of false positives saying that there are differences in apex code.

    On the source org, the code is show as "(hidden)"; on the target it is shown as empty. And Gearset lists this as a change.

    Obviously, I know it's not a change, but it adds a lot of clutter to the comparison view.

  6. Compare org monitoring from an arbitrary date to the current state of the org

    In Monitor ORG's tab, we have a daily set of cached metadata that can be used to troubleshoot issues in an ORG. This is great that we have this data. What would be even better (if there is not a way to do it currently), is if we could take the metadata cache from the monitoring job, "x" days ago, and compare it to the current state of an ORG.

    Maybe an ideal way to achieve this would be to select a cached version in the Compare Organizations screen. Alternatively, a button can be added in the Monitoring Job history…

  7. A count of differences could be grouped by type

    If the count of differences could be grouped by type/color that would be helpful.
    Ex: 20 differences: 5 red, 7 green, 8 yellow. It gives a better sense of how drastic the differences between Source and Target are at first glance.

  9. Ability for custom masking on Email fields

    Would love to be able to customize masking on email fields. When I currently mask an email field Gearset will make it something like 3d50b95f686844c6@gearset.invalid and I have no control over customization. I want to retain what the original email was so users can fix it and sent to it, if needed. I just want the email “broken” so it’s not used accidently through automation. Being able to customize the obfuscation would be very useful.

  10. Add Webhook Error Logging and History for Outgoing Webhooks

    When configuring outgoing webhooks (e.g., to GitHub Actions or Slack), errors and failures are not surfaced to the user, making troubleshooting difficult and time-consuming. Currently, after a webhook is triggered (or fails to trigger), there is very limited visibility into what payload was sent, what response was received, or whether an error occurred. If a webhook fails silently or returns an error, I have no way to view detailed logs or the history of webhook attempts. Furthermore, error messages (if any) seem to clear out whenever CI job settings are saved, and there is no persistent record of webhook activity.…

  11. API to Manage CI Jobs

    I would like an API to manage CI Jobs and Sandbox connections.

    In our current workflow, we create new sandboxes and branches for large initiatives. Along with these, we need to connect the SB in Gearset, build the CI job, run it for the first time, and then tear it down when we're done.

    We would like to be able to automate some of this.

    1. I have a branch and a sandbox
    2. I want to connect that sandbox in Gearset (would be great to do this programatically via api)
    3. create a CI job via api
    4. be able to run the…

  13. Add to Org Explorer the ability to search text within thing like Flows and Email Templates

    In addition to being able to search on the name. It would be helpful to also be able to search text within things like Flows and Email Templates. Like if you have the subject of the email template, but not the name of it to help find it.

  14. Enable Excel export of org differences—profiles, permission sets, and objects—in the same side-by-side format with change indicators

    I compared two profiles from different orgs—specifically, the old and new environments of the same company—to identify any differences and present them to the client for review and approval of necessary changes in the new org. However, I was unable to export the comparison results into Excel. It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to export the comparison data in the same structured and visual format as shown in the Gearset comparison window, making it easier to review and share with stakeholders.

  15. Provide a visual indicator on upstream systems when out of sync with master

    Often times we see drift items added to PR's in our upstream systems. It would be nice to have an indicator that shows if a static branch is out of sync with master.

  16. Automate upstream branch syncing

    After merging/deploying to prod allow auto-creation of sync PR's to upstream branches/orgs (QA, UAT, Staging, etc...). If the sync PR's could be promoted automatically that would be amazing.

  17. Delete Flow by Version Number

    It would be beneficial to delete specific inactive flow versions. Examples where this would help streamline deployment changes:

    • You need to delete a custom field that is used in a flow. You create a new version of a flow, remove the dependency on the custom field and activate the new flow. Now you want to remove the flow version that still has the custom field dependency. Something like a checkbox to select the version(s) to remove.

    • You have inactive versions of a flow and you want to clean up the historic flow versions. Something like a checkbox to select the…

  18. Add folders to Data Deployments for better organization

    To help with organizing data deployment templates it would be great to have some sort of folder structure to allow us to group data deployments by team. We have several Salesforce Teams at my company and we all have slightly different data deployment needs. It would be great to have team folders for data deployment templates...for example Sales Team Templates, Service Team Templates, Marketing Team Templates, etc. Today we use some naming conventions which is fine, but would be a little cleaner if we had a folder structure. Thanks for your consideration.

  19. Update Test naming convention matching to work with implementation classes

    We are using fflib and the AEP enterprise design pattern. As part of this design pattern we have interfaces and implementations for our Service layer classes. E.g. we will have something like ILumpSumService and LumpSumServiceImpl. When we create a test class it would be something like LumpSumServiceTest. So it would be great if the logic could be updated to match use cases where you have an implementation class like that. Also, I think any net new test classes added should be executed no matter what

  20. Put a "Simplify Differences" toggle at the entire comparison level instead of each item

    Add the "Simplify differences" toggle to be enabled at the entire comparison level so you can filter out items that don't have any actual changes besides metadata being moved around within the xml file by the salesforce API. This way, if there are items that don't have any true differences, they can be quickly filtered out at the comparison level instead of drilling into each one and having to "simplify differences".

    This would help especially with custom objects, where the salesforce api moves the Action Overrides around causing the analyzer to flag objects as different between orgs, when in reality…
