  1. Removing an Updates Sandbox from the pipeline should close all associated PRs and branches

    I noticed that deleting a sandbox with outstanding updates from the pipeline does not close any associated PRs. These and their branches should be removed from source control automatically. The branches are especially problematic as the GUIDs make it extremely difficult to associate them to an environment and determine if they are no longer needed.

  2. documentation

    I have been really impressed by the visualizations on the Compare and Deploy interface. Particularly the lightning page layouts and flows. One of my most time consuming tasks is creating internal documentation and I have not found a tool that allows me to capture the level of detail that I want in an efficient way. It would be great if I could export the visualizations at the bottom of the compare and deploy screen. It would be even better if it could export directly to Confluence.

  3. 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.

    Of course if an update fails the engineer would receive an email…

  4. Add regex or other means to "exclude" strings in monitoring job

    The Wave dashboards have a key field that changes every day and causes false positives in the Monitoring jobs. I would like the ability to exclude that string pattern from the results so I don't have a bunch of changes that don't matter showing up every day. Regex seems like the most robust way of defining it.

  5. CI jobs view improvements

    Hi Team,
    when opening a CI job and then expanding them, I can see a list of PRs with status 'Succeded' for two days I thought those were the successful deployments. Technical support confirmed instead that those are the PRs where the Validation Job has succeded but not yet deployed. The view is a bit confusing because for validation jobs I would expected a status = 'Passed'.
    Also, when I open the 'View History' of the actual deployment job it takes me to a view where I can see the github ID but not the PR number/name. It would be…

  6. Offer Japan data residency

    We are headquartered in Japan. Japan has data residency requirements for data backups/deployments and even metadata deployments/processing.

    Please add the option for a Japan hosted Gearset account.

  7. Quick deploy in pipelines

    It would nice to be able to use the Quick Deploy feature once a release is validated, instead of either hitting deploy or scheduling the deploy and having it validate one again.

  8. Assigning a dev sandbox to a member should give them deployment access

    Assigning a dev sandbox to a member should give them deployment access automatically, or at the very least I should be able to give deployment access in the same interface.

  9. Allow out of order Update deployment

    Currently you can only deselect and select update elements in an order. For example I have 3 recent updates ordered 1 to 3. One being the oldest and first update and 3 being the newest and last update. The current functionality would require me to select item 1 if I wanted to also update item 2. And if I wanted to update item 3 I would have to select all the items before it.

    I would like to select each one individual no matter there deployment history. Often I need to do this because the updates have no relation to…

  10. give a reminder if I'm leaving out a key piece from my deployment

    When deploying a new field, not including any permissions would be strange so a reminder would be great. Think of it as a recipe. If I'm making a pastry and I don't include salt that would be odd so a reminder there would be needed. I might have high blood pressure so there's a reason I don't want to include it but a reminder is helpful. For some deployments its easier to make inferences than others but it's good to starts somewhere.

  11. Download Salesforce customer master data changes for a custom time period in a single file

    We get a request from auditors every year. They want to see the customer master data changes for a specific month or time period. The customer master data objects like account, opportunity, contact, lead, etc.

    I have a full Salesforce data backup job that runs once per day. If i start downloading the files for each day, it is gonna take a lot of time.

    Therefore, I need one export for the whole month for customer master data objects like account, opportunity, contact, lead, etc.

  15. Auto-scroll simplified comparison views to the first difference

    When you view a comparison using the XML view, Gearset automatically scrolls you to the first change in the XML file.

    However, when you use the simplified view, which is now the default comparison experience, it does not automatically scroll, and you either have to use the Next icon (an extra click every time) or do a lot of scrolling.

    I would like to request that the simplified comparison views also scroll to the first difference.

  16. Compare Types on Comparison

    For the pipelines observed when creating a feature branch and during comparison runs, a default filter is applied to the compared types without any metadata types selected (0). We would like to have a custom filter with metadata types for a specific pipeline pre-selected by default when the feature branch initiates the comparison.

  17. Add Salesforce Data Cloud sandboxes as an option for deployments

    Salesforce Data Cloud sandboxes are now generally available but to promote changes from sandbox to production, the only options are through Data Kit and change sets, CLI, or DevOps Center. Having the option to use GearSet would be helpful so all deployments were managed the same.

  18. Ability to export results of historic test run

    When successfully validating a pull request, there is a "view details" link under the "Merge and validation checks" section. When clicked, in the new page that opens there is a button "Export test results…" that allows me to download the test results in excel file with detailed precision, reporting each test method duration.

    Unfortunately this feature is only accessible when PR are being validated, and disappears when checking historic PRs already closed and deployed. Would it be possible to provide such data?

  19. Allow customization options for the Deployment Report file name

    It would be nice to either have the option to set a default file name or allow the ability to set the report file name in the deployment screen.

    For my organization, this would make sorting deployment reports for various projects much easier as the file name doesn't include the Package Label.
