  1. Notify when PR is automatically created (e.g. back propagation)

    Notify the developer when a Pull Request is automatically created. For example when next pipeline stage is reached and a PR is automatically created or when a back propagation PR is automatically created.
    A comment in related Jira ticket would be very helpful.

  2. Allow filtering of records for data deployments via a SOQL

    Would like to be able to run a SOQL to select the records to base a data deployment from, in many cases we are trying to build some test data that matches specific scenarios based on fields on parent or related objects.

    The current selection of field filters doesn't give us the flexibility we need. For most of our data deployments to sandboxes today we run a data load in prod to set a field to true on the base object from a SOQL and then use that field to filter in the data deployment.

  3. Bulk resolve merge conflicts

    We occasionally run into a situation where there are quite a few files with conflicts to resolve. We almost always are just wanting to accept all changes from the feature (not the environment). This takes an excessive amount of time through the Gearset UI to accept changes in every file. Would it be possible to add a button accepting all changes from feature across the entire PR?

  4. Delta comparison between two unit test reports

    Hi team. Would be good to have a feature that allows us the comparison between two unit test results. We are interested to export the delta errors from one day to another.

    Use case: We are executing deployments for more than 50 pull requests against the same target sandbox, hence regression errors might be introduced throughout the day. We are running nightly unit test jobs and usually, in the morning, we have extra tests which are failing comparing with the previous day.

    We are currently exporting the gearset errors from 2 reports, in Excel tables, and compare these ones to…

  5. add Dashboard owner to Problem Analysis to use user deploying instead in xml ref

    Spring '24 Salesforce added ability to change Owner on a Dashboard https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_rd_dashboards_change_owner.htm&release=248&type=5

    "Previously, you had to clone or re-create the dashboard to provide access to a new owner."

    This can now cause deployment errors when the Owner is changing between environments if the Uesr does not exist, similar to runningUser user references. Problem Analysis accounts for the latter, but not the Owner. Could we add the Owner scenario to this analysis rule?

  6. apex classes dependencies

    When deploying an apex class, check for dependencies. Currently it attempts to deploy even if there are missing fields and only reports missing fields one at a time. Very tedious to address.

  7. Improve audit API to extract list of users and their entitlements. Additionally, allowing us to provision & deprovision user access via API

    We use 3rd party tools to audit all of our user access at our company. Automating this via API instead of exporting CSV and loading that into another tool would be very beneficial. Additionally, we use that tool for provisioning and deprovisioning so if an API for that existed too, we could automate Gearset users.

  8. Allow disabling of "Caching metadata for faster analysis"

    Often this stage of the process seems to take much longer (upwards of an hour) than retreiving and analysing did in the first place.

    It's unclear where this is even being cached, i've been told its in my own browser but this cant be true for a CI job with no browser available.

  9. To have an option to run unit tests either for Validation or Deployment or both

    Hi - for larger projects with 100 plus or more unit tests, deployments do slow down if there are a lot of them during the day and unit tests run twice. Once during validation and once during deployments. Can we have an option where unit tests can be turned on/off for validation and deployment separately?

  10. Ability to automate deployment to a particular environment without manually promoting changes

    When there are multiple Salesforce environments in the deployment pipeline, like Integration, Qa, Stage and Production, we would like to have ability to automate deployments to a specific environment, without having to select PR and promote changes manually. Most of the times SIT/Integration environment will be used for Developers to be able to perform integration testing, where we do not want someone like a Lead to review and promote PR manually. It will be beneficial to deploy the changes automatically, as soon as someone creates the PR to the Integration environment.

  11. Include the ability to tag/mention someone in the Gearset notes when linking a work item to Azure Devops

    Currently, you can post notes in Gearset and these show up in the comments of any linked work item in Azure DevOps, which is brilliant!

    The only issue is we cannot leverage the mention/tag functionality, including this would further streamline our deployment process and remove a manual step of having to deploy via Gearset and then manually tag a colleague to update them.

  12. Delete feature branches in Github in a way that they can be restored

    I closed a PR to master, and Gearset deleted the feature branch. However, it wasn't merged, so I wanted to restore it to continue work. I was completely gone from Github. I believe Gearset should do a normal delete that allows restoration instead of completely obliterating feature branches or allow an option to do so.

  14. default repository

    Allow to set a default repository when you have multiple repositories.

    1. Navigate to Compate and Deploy
    2. Select Source Control and select a VCS(in our case Gitlab Self Managed)
    3. If you have dozens of repositories they all show up on the list
    4. Need ability to specific a default repo which will be auto selected

  15. Roll back feature branches all at once

    The tool works really well in the UI promoting things forward through the pipeline. You can select one or more feature branches and promote them one at a time or all at once. It would be great if you could do the same thing with roll-backs. This would make things clean simple and alleviate the fear that you accidentally left something out or accidentally roll-back something you didn't mean to

    given that the need for roll-back functionality is inherently somewhat urgent, the tedious nature of having to carefully pick through a larger subset of metadata items to roll-back makes it…

  16. Show Created by and Created Date in Comparison view

    I'd like to see created by and created date in the comparison view. Sometimes we have multiple users working on items and I may not be the last to modify something but I am the one to deploy it and if I am the creator, I know what it is named but it makes it hard to sift down if I can only show modified by and modified date.

  17. Bulk resolving merge conflicts across multiple PRs (set resolution as Feature or Environment)

    It would be great if there was the capability to bulk-apply Feature or Environment when resolving merge conflicts across multiple PRs. I have a few dozens that all need to be set to the same option, and it would be useful to handle this quickly rather than click on each one individually.

  18. Add to Flow Navigator the flow version description

    It would be very handy if the new Flow Navigator view was able to display flow version description. We update this frequently to describe new changes, so being able to read this documentation in the Flow Navigator would be helpful to understanding the flow.
    Adding this either as a banner along the top (like some flow xml views) or as an element in the navigator sidebar would be acceptable.

  19. Expand integration for our Pipelines to allow us to enable tools like SonarQube and Veracode to run as part of our DevOps process.

    We use tools like SonarQube and Veracode within our company to improve our security and code quality. It would be extremely helpful to have integrations with these tools or an open integration we could configure to work with them. Especially if that could be triggered as part of our pipeline process so this interaction is automated.

  20. Improve Github Authentication and Access Control

    While authenticating with Github, GearSet asks for too many access request including read/write access to all public & private repos which doesn't make sense.

    Alternate Custom Git Auth does not allow teams to create team wide CI jobs.
    And with User - specific CI Jobs, It does not allow us to setup "Validate open PR" jobs.

    Please provide better resolutions on authentication and job setup processes.
