Ability to transfer Salesforce Org Connections to another user
I'm setting up my Salesforce Org Connections using an integration API Salesforce user account. It's a neutral account that isn't tied to any real person. Once these Org Connections are setup, I'm going to delegate them to other users, so they won't have to duplicate effort setting up their own Org Connections. It would be nice to be able to transfer these neutral connections to another user if I happen to leave the company or whatever.
4 votesTeam owners can set up team-shared Salesforce org connections. These connections aren't tied to a single user on the team, and any team owner can delegate access to the org connection.

re-add "re-authorize" link on compare view
After refreshing a sandbox, you have to re-authorize the sandbox-org. A while ago, there was a link to do so. Now we have to navigate to the list of orgs to re-authorize there.
Please give us back the re-authorize shortcut :)
4 votesWe have now added a 'Re-authorize' button to the access token expiry warning message that will typically appear when selecting Salesforce orgs with an expired token on the initial 'Compare and deploy' page.

Support org shape parameter for creating Scratch Orgs
Currently definition files are required for creating scratch orgs but there is no support in GearSet for the use of the sourceOrg parameter as per the sfdx documentation here : https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_dev.meta/sfdx_dev/sfdx_dev_shape_scratch_def.htm
4 votesWe’ve now released support for the Org Shape feature which is available when creating a scratch org.

Select individual fields in a Data deploy
Having the option to move up only selected fields in a Data deployment is needed. If we are required to move up all fields in each deployment, there are scenarios where our work will get bottlenecked in a sandbox on the way to production and at that point all the deployments will be identical.

Functionality to Data Deploy Active Orders
Salesforce doesn't support the creation or update or standard Order records with a Status Category of Active. This means Gearset is unable to data deploy any active orders. It would be very useful if there was an option for Gearset to temporarily set active orders to a draft status for the deployment or the Order Records and related Order Records, and then set the status back to Active for the final step.
4 votesYou are now able to dow this with Gearset Data deploys

Deploy permissions for Lightning Record Pages
provide a means of deploying the profile/recordtype/app permissions for lightning record pages without having to deploy the whole app.

Add link to test results in Microsoft Teams
Please add a link to the test results as part of the notifications sent to Microsoft Teams. The integration with Slack already includes the link so it would be very helpful to have a similar integration in Microsoft Teams.
4 votesThanks for your suggestion. I am pleased to say that the Microsoft Teams test monitor notifications should now have feature parity with the Slack notifications.

Report CI validation/deployment status to source control
When a CI job is triggered by a commit to source control, please update the source control system with the result of the build - so that e.g. with Bitbucket we could see the build result from pull requests as at https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/check-build-status-in-a-pull-request-945541505.html
4 votesGearset will now report CI job statuses to both Bitbucket and Bitbucket Server

Unscramble order of <excludeButtons> tags in Layout metadata
Page Layouts use the <excludeButtons> element to indicate the presence or absence of standard buttons on a layout.
But this element appears in an arbitrary order when retrieved. Unlike other metadata which gets canonicalized by sorting alphabetically.
Gearset could sort these elements to avoid the random order causing random diffs to appear in metadata comparisons when in reality there is no difference.
4 votesWhen Gearset detects that the only differences in your Layout are the result of reordering, and so there aren't any real differences to show you, it will automatically consider this metadata to be unchanged. As a result, this Layout won't appear in the list of changed metadata and will no longer clutter up your comparison results.
If there are any material differences in your Layouts, they will still appear in your comparison results as normal.
And you'll be able to use the Hide reordering checkbox to filter out any immaterial differences, just as you would for other metadata types.

Add support for incoming webhooks
There's already a way to set up an outgoing webhook after a successful CI job run.
It'd be nice to have a way for a CI job to have an incoming webhook from another service, such as ElectricFlow (a build platform).
One use case would be for CI deployments to be dependent on external validation services.
4 votesThis is now possible since we have released our API, which is available to everyone with an Enterprise license! Please see https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/6099550-getting-started-with-the-gearset-api for more details. If anyone has feedback or suggestions, please contact us via the in-app widget.

Allow deployments across managed package versions
Gearset does not allow comparisons or deployments of custom metadata on managed packages if the versions are different. We got ourselves in a situation where a package in the sandbox was a higher beta version that we couldn't upgrade to. This required us to do all the field deployments via changsets.
Adding a warning for deployments across managed package versions would be ideal as most changes one would deploy wouldn't necessarily cause any issues.
4 votesWe've added the ability to deploy across managed package versions using the Package Item Version Handling dropdown option within the filter sidebar.
If you have any feedback on this, please let us know!

Allow for the masking of data during a Data Deployment
During a data deployment it should be possible to mask the data in specific fields. For example, if I were importing Account and Contact data from production into a sandbox I would want to be able to mask email address so that we can't erroneously send actual customers emails while we're testing

Support "Test Suites" for CI
Hello, Could we make a suggestion for an enhancement? For CI Unit Test jobs, could we have a Test Suite option?
4 votesYou can now specify test suites to run in CI jobs. In each CI run, Gearset will run the tests belonging to those test suites.
Feel free to drop us a message on the in-app chat with any feedback you have on running tests suites in a CI job!

Provide reporting capabilities for Deployment History
Our executive sponsor for Gearset has asked me to provide him with some metrics around our Gearset usage. Specifically, we would like to be able to have access to some of the data that already exists in the Deployment History section, but in a format where we could report on it. Ideally, we'd be able to show how many deployments to production, how many components deployed in those packages, frequency of production deployments in a given timeframe, etc.
This would be a very valuable feature for us so that we can ensure our executive leadership team is briefed on the…4 votesThe deployment history can now be exported as a CSV file that will enable you to create the metrics you’re looking for.
Regards,
The Gearset Team

CI job option "hardcore" - The deployment should fail if the static code analysis identifies errors
For CI jobs we would like to have an option that validation or deployment fails when code analysis identifies any "Error" in the Static code analysis.

Live chat button overlays action button
Not sure how you resolve this one without moving either button. Maybe do something similar to what is done in the Diff view (where the action buttons are displayed in a row below the content).
Another option would be to have the live chat in the header navigation to toggle the feature on / off?
Not sure...Just noticed that it gets in the way sometimes.
4 votesWe’ve now made sure that the Live Chat button doesn’t appear on top of any of our action buttons.
Let us know if you see this one creep back in!

Specify friendly name before deployment
We would like to be able to specify the desired friendly name before a deployment completes, maybe above notes on the summary screen. The friendly name is copied from an existing draft, but when we clone from sandbox to sandbox and finally prod, there's no need to save a draft every time. Ideally, the friendly name would default to that of a cloned deployment as well.
4 votesThe ability to name the deployment from the pre-Deployment screen is now available, and will be used as the friendly name.

Add support for Visual Studio Team Services git repositories (Hosted TFS Git)
We use VTFS for version control hosted or OnPrem SVN for version control. Our enterprise architecture team has determine those are our 2 options for source control and Gearset doesn't support those options.

Remember a default Github repo
I have access to a huge number of Github repos but use only one for gearset deployments. It would be nice if that repo were automatically selected.
