Better Automated Pipeline MRs
The MRs that get opened for pushing the same work through pipeline aren't very helpful. Would love to link back to the original MR which would have more of the "approvals". Right now we end up having to re-approve everything like its from scratch. Insight and auditability (maybe even bringing up who approved the original MR/etc would be great)

Support Gitlab Application Tokens for CI Jobs
Gearset uses User-level Application Tokens which is great for all user-initiated requests. However, things like automated commits, new branches, etc would be ideal if we could tie to Gearset. Gitlab supports granting out tokens at the Group or Repo-level where we could provide a better and more auditable tracking of Gearset automations

Automated Commit Message Identifiers
It would be great if automated commits/PRs/etc had a note that called out they were automated for audit purposes.

ORG Deployment notification
Set notification distribution at Org level besides users profile level.
People are interested on deployments to Production for example. But not everyone is as interested if a user deployed to another sandbox.1 vote -
Display Friendly Org name in deployment - validated and history
Allow to define columns displayed in deployment. I'd like to see Org Friendly name instead of username. We defined these org friendly names when the connection was defined. I'd like to see it as a column with the Deployment dashboards. Most often we care more of the friendly name than the username used to connect.

Provide a list of Frequently Used Metadata Types for easy filtering
I often don't know which metadata types I need to include in a comparison so I don't miss anything so I often use Compare All (takes forever!). I'd like to have Gearset suggest filters based on past deployments so I can confidently compare without having to wait a long time.

Show file storage backup progression
When having large SF orgs with large file storage amount, is impossible to see the progression on the backup. You can only see the object that's being processed. For our org we've seen "Attachments" object under backup for more than 1 month without any idea on where we were.
It would be really helpful to have information on the progression of each backup object (either data or file storage).
Showing the information like: "Backing up file storage in 'Attachments' (1/12). Retrieving record XX of a total of XXX records from Salesforce". Already backed up XX GB in file storage.1 vote -
Update the layout comparison view of Page layouts to reflect custom button/button changes on related lists. Currently XML view only
The layout view does not show custom buttons added to related list/other button changes. This is visible in XML view, the layout view is slightly confusing as a result - The "Select all" tick at the top is present, but no other tick boxes, making it unclear what you are selecting unless you use XML view

Date to date filter
A date to date filter so as to ignore anything outside of that time window. Even if it could just be all the changes for one year, that would help.

Allow different source control users per CI job
At the moment, my GitHub user is defined at an account level. So that user is the one for all CI jobs.
I may want to have a different GitHub user for each of the projects that I run through Gearset. For example, if we are a consultancy that generally use our own stack, but have to use a GitHub user belonging to a customer on some occasions.
Or (as I do now) I may want to switch my GitHub user from one to another. Today, switching that user will disable ALL OF THE CI JOBS. And I will have…

package missing -meta.xml endings
When I download a package from a CI Job, it doesn't include the require "-meta.xml" ending for my metadata types. I wrote the following script to add them back one folder at a time. It would make more sense if Gearset just gave me the correct filenames when I download the package though.
…# Gearset gives us a downloadable package to trouble shoot, # but it doesn't have the -meta.xml text appended to it. # Find all files with this ending and append -meta.xml to it. find ./ -type f -name '*.flow' | xargs -I '{}' mv '{}' '{}'-meta.xml find

Ability to delete app visibility
As per the official reply from Gearset support
".....The issue is, if you manually delete the app, all the app visibilities will be deleted as well. But when using Gearset to delete the app visibilities, they are not completely deleted but set to false. The best workaround for this is to manually delete the xml from your git branch. ..."
If Gearset can incorporate this feature, it would be nice.
The workaround is not that hard as it may sound. 4 apps in 60 profiles takes about 10 mins to mass-find and mass-replace in VS Code.

Backup data search feature should allow wildcards
Current the backup/restore search feature is an exact match search only. It would be great to use wild cards or to select "contains" "starts with" "ends with" or simply allow the user to use % to achieve the same.
For example if I wanted to search for the account Willy Wonky Chocolate Factory, with the exact match I have to know the exact name, but with wild card I could search for %Chocolate% and get all accounts backed up with Chocolate in their name.

When merging a Pull Request that is linked to an Azure DevOps work item, indicate the user who performed the merge
Currently, when a PR is merged into an Org (and the PR is linked to an Azure DevOps item), a discussion comment is added to the DevOps item documenting the merge. However, there is no indication in the comment to document the user who performed the merge. The Author of the comment appears to be the owner of the pipeline, not the user who performed the merge. My suggestion is to either make the author of the comment the person who performed the merge, OR in the content of the comments, add a line to indicate "Merged By: [Name of…

retain validation history for CI jobs
When a pull request is created against a branch that triggers a CI job, a validation is run. Sometimes, this validation hits errors and adjustments need to be made to the metadata filter and/or problem analyzer template until the validation succeeds. However, once the PR is promoted and the CI job successfully fires, the validation history for that PR is no longer accessible. It would be useful to be able to retain that validation history, as it would help to do further investigation into the validation errors that were hit after the fact.
There is not always time during a…

Allow automated unit test execution to run tests synchronously
When unit tests are run in parallel you can often get intermittent errors such as UNABLETOLOCK_ROW. When running tests from Salesforce you are able to specify running tests synchronously which takes longer but prevents conflicts between tests. Can this option be added to Gearset for the automated test running?

Deploy monitor results changes to target org directly from the compare screen
I get the a monitoring results email. When I click it it takes me to the comparison screen
Right now to deploy those changes I have to go to Monitoring > Filter by name > View History > Select the right one > Deploy changes to target org.Those are 5 clicks to get to a place I just was in! It would be great if I could deploy the changes to the target org directly from the screenshot comparing screen.

quote term
For CPQ Quote Term, the name column only shows "Approved" which is not meaningful.
Please switch to using the "Name" field which is a auto generated number (e.g. QT-0209) that is displayed in the user interface and therefore a meaningful identifier.1 vote -
Add configurable email reminders for scratch org expiration.
From Salesforce orgs and Dev Hubs, it would be great if there were a setting that would automatically send an email when a scratch org is approaching expiration. This could be configurable per Dev Hub, and would help prevent data loss at scratch org expiration.

Show the status of a CI deployment on the pull request
We use merge-based deployments, so whenever a Github pull request gets merged to /main, a CI deployment job fires that deploys the content of the PR to Production.
The issue is that at the moment all Merged PRs look the same, whether the deployment actually succeeded, or failed. There's no way to tell, or even to follow progress, unless we ask people to open the Gearset job and then look at the deployments for that job etc. which is quite a bit of a faff.
Validation jobs do display on the PR whether they passed or failed, the same feature…
