  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. Download multiple objects at once from a backup run

    Given the related nature of many objects within a Salesforce Org. It would be helpful to be able to filter on and select records from multiple objects in a single data download.

  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 the ability to track who configuration changes to pipeline, CI jobs, etc...

    It would be nice to see when there's a configuration was changed such as required test configuration on a CI job or pipeline configurations.

  14. Add a link to open the deployment when a change is being promoted

    The pipeline view only shows that a deployment is "running" after promoting a change. It would be useful to have a link to the deployment job and be able to view the deployment status in gearset.

  15. Mobile Support

    Support mobile devices.

    The CSS Used for the Pipeline Environment popover prevents the browser from scrolling horizontally. You can try this be logging into Gearset on your phone's browser or by narrowing the browser width on your desktop.

    1. I want to deploy from my phone.
    2. I want to monitor PRs from my phone.
    3. I want to browse my Scheduled Jobs and Monitoring Jobs.

  17. Add a notes field to environment variables to contain the scenarios it's addressing.

    For example, the RegEx allows finding of many different patterns that can all be handled by a single regular expression. Down the road it's less obvious which situations the regex was intended for. Having a simple notes field could be quite helpful.

  19. Restore feature branch when a mid-flight promotion branch is restored

    Have just experienced a scenario where closing a PR that is mid-flight in the pipeline caused the promotion branch and underlying feature branch to be deleted. So far, so good in terms of expected behaviour due to my pipeline settings. However, after restoring the promotion branch in order to reopen the PR and promote it in the pipeline, the next environment on the pipeline did not then show the change. This, I believe, was because restoring the promotion branch DID NOT restore the feature branch. Therefore there was no source to create a new promotion branch from in order to…

  20. Create a mass back propagation button

    Its very time consuming to have to back propagate one by one to each org. Please create a mass back propagation button.

    Also when back propagating where more than one connection to an org exists for instance our techdebt org has several admin connections and I have to hit update on all of them. Make the back propagation smart enough to know that it only needs one update rather than on each connection to the same org
