  1. Page Layout Deletion Not Detected

    When I remove a page layout from my Git repository (the file and the package.xml entry) and then do a comparison to an org that it still exists in, Gearset fails to detect a deletion. It doesn't even show up in the All objects tab. It happened to me yesterday and then I just reproduced it now.

  2. Check for conflicts on CI

    We have a scenario where CI would be useful, but there is a risk of it making destructive changes...

    Orgs in involved are Prod, UAT, Dev.

    Ideal development path would be Dev->UAT->Prod with each deployment using Gearset.

    In the real world, admins make some changes directly in Prod. So, we also need to merge changes back from Prod->UAT to make sure that UAT is a realistic test environment.

    It would be great if we could make a CI connection from Prod->UAT which automatically deploys non-destructive changes, and notifies us if a change cannot be sent to UAT for risk of…

  3. The number of differences does not appear to the left of the Prev/Next buttons in XML view mode

    However, the number of differences does appear when viewing the same Apex class in APEX view mode.

  5. Manage Orgs Re-authorization returns you to a default sorted list.

    I refreshed a sandbox. I need to re-auth my orgs. I go to Manage Orgs, and sort by my friendly name. I click re-auth, and OAuth is successful and the app tells me I did a good job. But the page it returns me to is using a different sort then I left the page with. ie, it sorts the list by username again. Just extra button clicking I'd like to get rid of if possible. I have to re-auth orgs all the time.

  6. User Account Specific Validation Errors

    When deploying objects such as reports to a Target ORG, sometimes the reports are shared with a user in the source ORG. If the user does not exist in the Target ORG, the validation throws an error. Would it be feasible to add objects, such as reports, to the Warnings / Fixes screen so we can easily select how to handle user specific dependencies? Maybe we can chose to enter a new username or simply remove the shared with permission on the object?

  7. Dependency Engine enhancement for Sharing Rules

    Dependencies with sharing rules. Roles/Groups/Fields referenced in sharing rules may be helpful to add as "dependent" on as if they are not in the destination org you cannot deploy.

  8. Scroll to top of category, when switch between All Items, Changed Items etc

    Just a user preference item – when you switch tabs (ex: New Objects to Deleted Objects), it doesn’t place you at the top of the window.

    So if I scroll down through all the New Objects and then switch tabs to the Deleted Objects, it just places me in the same relative location as I was in the New Objects tab.

    It would be nice to have it reset to the top of each window when I switch tabs.

  9. When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments

    When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments

    The SharedTo User doesn't exist in the target org causing my deployment to fail.

  10. Seed Data alongside Feature Branch Promotions to Orgs

    The idea is to bundle the data that should be tested along with the feature branch, so that once a story is deployed the data is also available (similar to one of Copado's features).

    This allows us to test regardless of dev, partial or full copy sandbox type. Allow for a set of data to go along with a feature for testing reports and analytical tools. Possibly integrate existing Seeding Templates that can be paired with a feature branch. Allow for configuration of data deployments to environments through the CI job for feature+data deployments. Allowing some environments to refuse the…

  11. Add navigation into elements of LWC bundle in difference viewer

    The current LWC difference viewer shows the components linearly from top to bottom - meta, css, html, js. Just like you did with the side bar navigator for layout, add a side bar navigator for the LWC bundles

  12. Allow developer sandbox updates to be qued instead of failing

    When you update developer sanboxes you can only do a max of 2 at a time or else the extras fail and do not automatically retry when the other are done. I would like if they would just enter into a que so that you could click update on all of them and not have to wait until the first 2 are done to then click the next two.

  14. Promotion PRs should show the original author on GitHub enterprise

    Hello, according to the documentation here - https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/8545155-why-are-my-prs-showing-the-pipeline-owner, promotion PRs created by Gearset in GitHub can show the original author of the PR. After talking with support, they told me that this feature is not supported for GitHub Enterprise. Could this be made available in Github Enterprise, as it is now in GitHub?

  16. Git Delta Deployment

    I think it would be great if Gearset pipeline feature changed to do a pure Git delta deployment instead of a Git/Org delta deployment. The reason for this is that then you only deploy your work (or what has changed) instead of deploying potentially any differences between the given branch and your org. Here's more information on this concept: https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2021/01/optimizing-unpackaged-deployments-using-a-delta-generation-tool

  18. Prevent Pipeline Paths from crossing Static or Developer environments

    Sometimes depending on how you setup the pipeline you can end up with pipeline paths crossing/going under static environments and developer sandboxes.

    This gives the impression that they are connected when they are not.

    I would like it to look like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s59BS47wEuHFA8Grb0SLdFSH00AgWw0W/view?usp=sharing

    But it ends up looking like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BLFrHd0HTR9LTLSoUw_34BqAWgvDa1SO/view?usp=sharing

  19. Darkmode option

    It would be really helpful having a dark mode of gearset UI. A big number of devs prefer dark mode over bright mode. Since gearset is a tool mainly used by devs, would be good to give to devs the option to customize their UI.

  20. Automating/Scheduling DevSandboxUpdate aka Back promotions in gearset pipeline

    Automating/scheduling DevSandboxUpdate, aka back promotions in the gearset pipeline, sometimes it becomes challenging for developers to update their sandboxes whenever there are frequent releases to production in a short span of time.

    This is currently planned for later this quarter and next.


    Users will have the option to:

    • Bulk update selected dev sandboxes
    • Automate developer sandbox updates; they will be immediately tried as and when ready


    If users want to automate dev sandbox sychronization now, they can use CI jobs to deploy changes from their desired source of truth - this comes with some risk of affecting work in progress though.
