  3. Comparison of draft deployments

    Two teams who are supposed to be working on different parts of the sandbox org have created two draft deployments. I would like to compare these draft deployments to see if there is any overlap of selected items.

  4. Highlight "Failed Validation" Components

    If the metadata Deployment Validation step fails, and the user clicks the "Back to Comparison" button, the components that caused the failure should be highlighted on the screen for manual review.

    Currently, when a deployment fails on the validation step, my process is:
    - Wait until the Validation step is done
    - Sort by the Status to show Failures on top
    - Take a screenshot of the list of errors (hopefully less than a full screen of errors)
    - Click the "Back to Comparison" button
    - Use the screenshot like a checklist to work through the errors
    - Run Validation…

  5. Multiple sort columns for comparison results

    It would be helpful to be able to sort comparison results on multiple columns (e.g. first by Metadata type, then by Name). Currently it seems that the results can only be sorted by one column at a time.

  6. Soft delete of deployment History

    When a person deletes a deployment history that was successfully deployed, it would be good if that deletion was only a Soft Delete and could be recovered within 90days.

  7. Schedule Release Validation

    We've run into ROW LOCK issues in the past while running unit tests during validations in production which caused some issues with external Community Users, thus as a best-practice we try to run production validations after business hours.

    I'd like to be able to schedule release validations from Gearset, or expose an endpoint that would allow me to trigger a CI validation for a release or PR.

  8. Add a date filtering mechanism on comparisons

    . Currently we can select individual dates on the dropdown list or select from a select few "Last X days". Would be a great option to be able to set something like "See changes from X to Y" or "Select since X", especially useful given we have the dropdown selection on a per minute step, so the list gets very large, very quikcly.

    For compliance checking, tracking who changes what when, periods of criticality (especially around new features coming in) or just for retrospectives.

  9. Ignore line endings in pipelines conflict resolution

    It would be useful if the pipelines conflict resolution tool ignored line endings. As at present if you have one file with LF line endings and another with CRLF it will show the whole file as different, where as that is not the case, it's just line endings. Most other devOps tools work in this way.

    There is another idea to ignore whitespace in apex comparisons - but this should also be extended to conflict resolution.

  10. Please introduce an external ID in the background as some other products do. This would make it flawless.

    Without the external ID, your solution is time consuming and prone to troubleshooting errors.

  11. Help users Deploy Sales Cadences between orgs

    Sales Engagement for Salesforce allows users to build Sales Cadences. These seem to be record based, so being able to move these between orgs would be great.

  12. Enable data fixes when migrating Vlocity datapacks

    When the data in the source and target environments are aligned, deploying Vlocity datapacks with Gearset can be quite straightforward.

    However at times when they are not, deployments can fail catastrophically with the documented solution requiring the use of tools provided by Vlocity / Salesforce Industries in their Vlocity Build Tool : https://github.com/vlocityinc/vlocity_build. The alternative is to try manually resolving the issues, which can be an uphill struggle when you consider complexities around products, such as their hierarchy, availability and pricing.

    For Gearset to truly be a one-stop tool for Salesforce Industries deployments, please enable data fix functionalities in…

  13. Add Manage Custom Filters option when creating a CI job

    When I use options Automation -> Continuous Integration -> Dev Sandbox -> Compare and commit for deployment, there is no option to create a custom filter.
    Custom filters can only be created by using Metadata deployments -> Compare and deploy option.
    Since the following tutorial https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/6166062-promoting-your-first-features recommends to use Automation -> Continuous Integration for deployment, it would be nice if this way of deployment also had an option to create custom filter.

  14. Share org connections or CI jobs with sub-teams

    As an SI, we use Gearset for release management with multiple clients. Each client has multiple environments and CI jobs, but not everyone on my team works with every client. Currently, I can either share an org connection or CI job with all members of my team (providing access to people who should not have it) or I can share it individually with each person working with the client (which can sometimes be up to 10 people). It would be useful to define a group that holds the people who work on the client account and then share org connections…

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. 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.

  20. [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…
