add an option to sign commits with GPG key
If a source control space has enforced GPG key signature for all commits, gearset is not able to push any commits.
2 votesYou can now sign commits with GPG keys in Gearset. This article explains how to set up commit signing in Gearset. Commit signing is available on the Deployment Teams and Enterprise licenses.
Please let us know if you have any feedback via the in-app widget or by emailing team@gearset.com.

Populate Pull Request Templates from git providers
When creating a pull request directly in Gearset, it would be ideal to pull in the existing templates defined in BitBucket or GitHub.
A middle of the road solution (if GiHub or BitBucket's API doesn't support this) could be defining a pull request template in Gearset.

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.

Bitbucket pull request add Default Reviewers
When using the "Create Pull Request" link on the deployment screen, please add the "Default Reviewers" to the BitBucket pull request.
Currently we have to edit each pull request and add the reviewers manually.

CI Job notification email should report the actual errors directly instead of linking to CI Dashboard.
This potentially can help the team to collaborate on the errors directly on Teams messages.
For example, at present, the MS team notification says [A continuous integration validation job failed for validation job for PR # xx], but doesn't say which CI job name or what the validation/deployment error was.

Ability for team members to manually run the CI
Currently, only the owner of the CI job can manually run the CI. If the owner is out or unavailable, this creates a problem for team members because they have to deactivate the current job, clone and setup the new CI OR transfer ownership. Transferring ownership doesn't work if a team member is out unexpectedly, ill or doesn't have access to perform the transfer.
It would be helpful if you could grant access to a group of team members who have access to manually run the CI. This would save a lot of time and prevent having to keep multiple…
14 votesWe have made changes to the app on the 29th of June release for Enterprise licensed Gearset users:
Added the ability to run CI jobs belonging to other users if the source is a git repo and the target has deployment access delegated.
We think this now covers the cases:
- Allow an enterprise licensed user to run other people’s org to org CI jobs
- Allow an enterprise licensed user to run other people’s git to org CI jobsWe have not implemented allowing user to run other people’s org to git CI jobs. As this is sub use case is quite a specific interpretation of the original suggestion. Perfectly happy for it to be specified in another separate suggestion.
We have updated the documentation to reflect this change – https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/2533179-access-levels-in-gearset
I hope this delivers the what your team needs. Feedback always welcome :)

Include more details in webhook notifications
It would be great if webhook would include, at least, the same information as email notifications. For example, Unit Testing job notifications via email contains the details about the unit tests that failed; however, webhook notification don't. We wanted to use webhooks to get notifications in MS Teams but without the same details, it's not that useful.

Rerun Github validation on a PR without a new commit
When a CI job is set to run on a PR creation, if the source destination is missing something that the deploy requires, it will fail. To solve this, we must go to the source destination, make settings changes, and then make an empty commit to the pull request to re-run the CI.
It would be nice for there to be a link or button in Gearset to rerun the CI and update the Pull Request that the validation was successful.
2 votesIn the ‘continuous integration dashboard’ in Gearset, for ‘validate pull request’ jobs, there is a ‘run now’ play button to run the job manually. You can therefore update the target and then re-run the PR validation without needing an additional commit.
To be able to run the ‘validate pull request’ job manually, you need to have permission to run the parent CI job manually (e.g. be the job owner).

Ability to create Pull Requests for AWS CodeCommit
Gearset can create Pull Requests for many of the source control systems that it integrates with, but not AWS CodeCommit.
As AWS users, it would be very useful to use to have this ability so that we didn't need to switch systems to create Pull Requests.
3 votesThis functionality was implemented in February 2022.

Require Jira Ticket Before Validation or Deployment
We would like the ability to make the "Jira updates" section required (i.e. ticket selected) prior to validation or deployment.
2 votesYou can now require team members to link a Jira ticket before manual deployments and validations.
Simply, navigate to My Account -> Deployment Settings and enable the 'Require Jira Tickets' option.

Support integration with OKTA
Salesforce orgs that have OKTA as a SSO Identify Provider cannot seem to be connected to Gearset using SF Authentication. Therefore is makes it impossible to do Monitoring and Tests.
Please look into supporting OKTA SSO
2 votesThis is supported. You can select a Salesforce authentication method and click on [Use Custom Domain] to achieve this. See https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/2131749-does-gearset-support-sso for more detailed steps.

Allow multiple Team owners to Connect to the bitbucket server through OAuth instead of creating a new link every time with in same Org
With in an org if we have multiple owners working as multiple teams, Gearset should be able to allow other owners to connect to the same Biibucket server through OAuth, instead of creating a new link every time.

Allow Updating of Associated Jira Ticket Statuses on Successful Deployment
With Gearset's current the ability to associate a deployment with Jira tickets, and post updates as comments to the stages of deployments, the ability to choose the status (from what is defined in the status of the Jira Board), upon a SUCCESSFUL deployment, would be incredibly helpful in our environment plans for our projects.
By being able to select the status to update all tickets to from the Jira board, we could effectively manage our custom stages for different projects.

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.

Improve Bitbucket Server integration for teams with large number of project/repositories
ideally... gearset should not be hitting https://adlm.nielsen.com/bitbucket/rest/api/1.0/repos
first. It should hit https://adlm.nielsen.com/bitbucket/rest/api/1.0/projects to get a list of projects
then allow the end user to select the project
then https://adlm.nielsen.com/bitbucket/rest/api/1.0/projects/{projectKey}/repos to get a list of repos on the project the end user selects12 votesGearset will now filter by project first when selecting a repo/branch for Bitbucket Server

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
-
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.

Gearset API to externally trigger Gearset actions
It would be incredibly helpful to trigger Gearset comparisons, validations, deployments, etc. from an external source using an API. Our team uses GitHub for our VCS, which provides the perfect opportunity to:
1. design webhooks to validate changes in order to approve a Pull Request
2. design webhooks to automatically deploy changes to an org once the PR is approved.Additionally, CI tools such as Jenkins, TravisCI, TeamCity, etc could use such an API to design complex builds that still employ Gearset, but use the external tool for additional actions outside of what Gearset provides for their CI features.

Stamp Deployment Results with Salesforce Id of the Deployment package for auditabilityq
When a deployment is successful, the deployment results/report should include the Id of the deployment package from Salesforce. This would create a foolproof audit trail between Gearset deployments and when they went into effect in Salesforce.

Add the open PR feature (Github) to work with BitBucket after a successful commit
It would be great to add the open PR feature (Github) to work with BitBucket after a successful commit.
Super helpful for the admin team to close off their feature branches and move onto the next job at hand without having to interact with BitBucket.
