  1. Monitoring dashboard page hangs on loading

    Often, if not always, when I first load up the monitoring dashboard it hangs on the loading wheel until I refresh. Doesn't appear to be a problem on any other page.

  2. Add wildcard Test selection

    When selecting tests to be run for validation or CI validation jobs, we should be able to select "Test classes" and provide more generic search names such as "Test.cls" or "classes/". This would allow dynamic updates to the selected tests based on available test in the deployment package.

  3. False error - 'Field permission cannot be set for Required Fields'

    Deploying few field permissions through CI, there is an error 'Field permission cannot be set for Required Fields' in the Problem Analyzer, but actually the fields are not marked as Required in the target. Lead.Pronoun, Lead.GenderIdentity fields.

  4. exclude specific JSON keys when comparing Vlocity/Omnistudio metadata

    We are seeing Omniscripts showing as different on certain JSON keys. These keys always change and should be excluded from your comparison.
    The impact of this is Omniscript deployments require the LWCs to be compiled and if we deploy Omniscripts unintentionally, their LWCs are not recompiled and functionality breaks for the users.

  6. [Data Backup] Allow field filtering on the Job History Search page

    The ability to search for a specific record in the data backup Job History search tab is very helpful. As it exists today, you can search by ID or by Value - it appears that if you search by Value, it will try to find any record with that value on some subset of fields for the object chosen. However, if you have a very large dataset, the search takes an extremely long time to execute.

    Here is a real world example for my company- we have Person Accounts enabled in our org and have about 9M records. More often…

  7. Add the ability to add "Shared Mailboxes" to "Deployment Notification."

    It would be logical to have the ability to add a shared mailbox to the "deployment notifications" for individuals.

    The current logic is that you need to add a user, however the only way to do this is create a SF user in a DEV org for the shared mailbox which is not clean or logical for a mechanism of a notification.

  9. Microsoft Teams CI Deployment Job Notifications - Add Source Commit

    There should be parity with the content included with a Teams web hook notification. With Slack, the Source Commit attribute is included.

    With Teams, it's omitted. Please add so this data point is available with Teams. Current output illustration.

  10. Fix CI PR Search Bar

    The Search Bar in the CICD Pipelines appears to be using a custom matching logic that is awkward at best and outright misleading at worst. I start searching for a PBI with a term like '1093' and get 1 result, In then add an additional 3 to it ('10933') and am presented with 3 results, none of which have the term '10933' anywhere in them.

    The algorithm appears to chunk parts of the search value and then 'fuzzy match' using each 'chunk' of string. So by adding a 3 to 1093, I was all of the sudden searching for all…

  11. Audit API - Production Filtering

    From a compliance perspective, we only need to ingest production changes. It appears there are fields like 'SalesforceOrgType' on Anonymous Apex Endpoint and 'TargetMetadataLocationType' on Deployments Endpoint.

    It would be great if we could filter those, even better if you could bring in Production Org ID / Name into that filtering ability and in response as well.

  12. having a Release Manager role within a Gearset team

    I want the ability to set specific users as release managers and only these users can deploy to a production org. Only this role should be able to create a direct authentication to production. Other roles should be blocked to create a direct authentication to production or blocked from selecting production as a target org.

  13. Deploy Now and Validate Package Buttons

    Presently, the Deploy Now and Validate Package buttons are positioned adjacent to each other. Occasionally, there is a risk of unintentionally selecting the Deploy Now button before the package has been validated. This can result in potential issues arising. To address this, I recommend the following actions:

    1. Enable the Deploy Now button only after the Validate Package process is successfully completed.
    2. Consider repositioning the buttons within the User Interface if both buttons share the same screen.
    3. Alternatively, place the Deploy Now button after the Validate Package screen in the sequence.

    Thanks.

  14. Need to be made aware and/or given the opportunity to view the totality of the changes prior to deployment

    Heres what happened, we deployed the Metadata AND a ChatBot. As part of our deployment, we manually updated the metadatas to contain PROD relavent info (instead of ACC info that was pushed from ACC Branch)

    I also discovered that there were duplicate utterances in the Chatbot which we had to remove via manual DML deletes to ensure that the Data Model was built properly.

    Then, we wanted to deploy just a Field change, and did so by merging a PR containt just the Field Change into main in Azure. This, obviously, triggered a deployment and in that deployment, the metadata…

  15. Allow download of XML files from the comparisons page

    In some instances, we have to use the Metadata API to download XML files for analysis. However, the Metadata API is a pain to use. Even Salesforce recognizes this and suggests using a migration tool like Gearset to extract these: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.246.0.api_meta.meta/api_meta/file_based.htm

    Since Gearset retrieves these files during comparison, it would be great if there was an option to download them to a zip file directly.

    Note: There is already a "Download Package" feature on the deployment page. However, we obviously can't add items to this page if there is no change between the orgs. So, if a similar feature were…

  16. Ability to use include/exclude patterns for Apex tests

    Now we can only have patterns to match test classes to include.
    Would love to have ability to use include/exclude patterns (like for comparisons).
    We have many tests which we don't want to execute within CI jobs. These could be from (stable) 3rd party libraries like FFLib.

  17. Allow automatic tagging of release commits

    I've found it very useful to be able to quickly identify release merge commits from our VCS. Being able to search for a tag in our VCS would allow us to easily compare one version to another without having to use something like git bisect. I'd like the option to automatically tag a commit (you could probably use the release name) would be helpful.

  18. Ability to download/restore data in bulk

    We deleted 40 000 records, now we want to download data from the backup for all of them. I can filter them, select for which I want to get it and download, the challenge is, that only 500 records are loaded by default and I can load more in a batch of 500. A lot of clicking to see all of them.

  19. Add the ability to back up Salesforce Change sets

    While we use Gearset for our change sets, we have time where a 3rd party developer or a new admin uses standard Salesforce Change sets. We have had an incident where Hyperforce wiped out all of our change sets in all sandboxes, it would beneficial to add the ability to the backup to back up change sets

  20. allow the option to include destructive changes for data deployments

    allow data deployments to have an option where records existing on the target org but not in the source org are deleted. This will in effect allow a full sync between source and target orgs without any manual intervention to clean up data.
