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.
1 voteThis 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.

Automatic sandbox updates option
The new sandbox updates process is really convenient - you can see all the updates a sandbox needs and apply one or more. However it is still very much a manual process to start it. We have a team of engineers and each one of them has to constantly go and trigger the update process manually whenever an update becomes available.
It would be really nice if there was a switch for 'Automatic updates' i.e. whenever it is turned on, the updates are applied automatically during off hours.

allow selecting of specific picklist values when deploying changes to picklist fields
Essentially would like to be able to cherry pick the values for a picklist value that is being deployed from a lower sandbox. Basically what you did with Precision Layout deployment for page layouts. There are times when we do not want to deploy all of the new/different values for a picklist field.

Compare Active Version of flows not the newest Flow
When comparing flows please compare the active version of flows, not the newest version. This would align with how change sets handle flow.
Example:
Version 2 and 3 exist in source. Version 2 is active and version 3 is draft. I want to deploy Version 2 that is active not the inactive flow.14 votes -
Allow Record type additions and removals to be selectable
I am not a having an option to deploy the particular picklist values in the Record type level, I would like to include only the values I have added that are different from my target environment.
