Allow developer sandbox updates to be queued instead of failing
When you update developer sanboxes you can only do a max of 2 at a time or else the extras fail and do not automatically retry when the other are done. I would like if they would just enter into a que so that you could click update on all of them and not have to wait until the first 2 are done to then click the next two.

Promotion PRs should show the original author on GitHub enterprise
Hello, according to the documentation here - https://docs.gearset.com/en/articles/8545155-why-are-my-prs-showing-the-pipeline-owner, promotion PRs created by Gearset in GitHub can show the original author of the PR. After talking with support, they told me that this feature is not supported for GitHub Enterprise. Could this be made available in Github Enterprise, as it is now in GitHub?

Git Delta Deployment
I think it would be great if Gearset pipeline feature changed to do a pure Git delta deployment instead of a Git/Org delta deployment. The reason for this is that then you only deploy your work (or what has changed) instead of deploying potentially any differences between the given branch and your org. Here's more information on this concept: https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2021/01/optimizing-unpackaged-deployments-using-a-delta-generation-tool

Allow users to choose their default comparison view
Different types of Gearset user will prefer to analyse comparisons in different ways. Some will definitely prefer the XML view; others will prefer the new simplified views.
I think it would be great if Gearset allowed users to specify their default view and comparisons load with this preference.

Prevent Pipeline Paths from crossing Static or Developer environments
Sometimes depending on how you setup the pipeline you can end up with pipeline paths crossing/going under static environments and developer sandboxes.
This gives the impression that they are connected when they are not.
I would like it to look like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s59BS47wEuHFA8Grb0SLdFSH00AgWw0W/view?usp=sharing
But it ends up looking like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BLFrHd0HTR9LTLSoUw_34BqAWgvDa1SO/view?usp=sharing

Clickable Jira Request within Pipeline Promotion History
I would like the ability within the pipeline promotion history to make the Jira tickets clickable. That way a user could simply click the ticket reference to navigate directly to the request.

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.

Add more information regarding team shared metadata filters
Hello, I have the following suggestion.
When a team shared filter is created, it would be a good idea to see who is the user that initially created it.
Also, it would be beneficial to see who last modified it and when was it last used.When we have a lot of team shared filters, such functionality will greatly help with the clean up efforts.

Install managed package from sfdx-project.json
I would like to get the possibility to track my managed packages and their versions in the sfdx-project.json file and automatically install it from this file. Could this be a possibility?

Add the ability to put CI jobs into folders
It would be great if we had the ability to put ci jobs into folders. We've accumulated a number of CI jobs. Some of these jobs are no longer in service and we're a bit reluctant to delete them as they may have historical information that we may later want or need. It would be great to be able to put things like this into folders to help reduce clutter and organize our CI jobs page. thanks for your consideration.

Add sharing to comparison view
When you look at the comparison of the list view the "shareto" metadata is not available in the nice clean view. Its only available in the XML view.

Customize the columns in the Compare and Deploy view, such as replacing 'Changed By' with 'Created By
Currently we cannot modify or customize the columns in the list view. So if I wish to see the records having created by instead of last modified by then there is no direct option available on UI at 'Compare and deploy'. It is really useful to have the choice over choosing the right columns as per the deployment needs.

add the name of the draft deployment somewhere on the comparison view
Allow the user to be able to see the name of a draft deployment somewhere on the screen when in the comparison view. Often times, team member will share links to draft deployments but we have to follow up in order to find the actual name of it.
Since the user is taken to the comparison view when they click on a draft deployment link, the name should be visible somewhere on that comparison view page. Even better if that name can also be copied to clipboard.

I would like to download a CSV file from any stage in the Pipeline that includes all the PR details.
I wanted to know the PR's that are pending between the pipeline environments, so I copied the screen data into a spreadsheet and had to spend time to make it usable. I used the information to understand the outstanding work by team (we follow naming conventions for our work), identify stranded stories from departed developers, and have a deeper understand into the backlog. I am using the information to talk to the pod leaders discussing process improvements, release timing/scheduling, and other operational improvements.

I would expand my request to if a sort has been applied to *any* column other than Name, apply a secondary sort to "Name" so the rows always
If a sort has been applied to any column other than Name, apply a secondary sort to "Name" so the rows always sort alphabetically by Name.
This is most useful when sorting by Metadata Type, I'd like the results to be grouped first by Metadata Type, but then I'd like to see the results sorted alphabetically by their name.
Even if the user is sorting by Changed On, for example - if there are 100 fields all deployed on the exact same date/time (ex. Mar 26, 2025 1:19pm), you might as well sort them alphabetically by Name as well

view only user
A free "View Only" user role
We have setup notifications on changes for specific use cases - eg. all changes to custom fields only.
We have configured these to send to Slack and Teams channels - but detailed information has to be surfaced in Gearset.
We would like to give "view" access to many users for the comparison result in the notification, and no other permissions. This should not encroach on the licenced user count.1 vote -
Create a functionality which can Export all the Open PRs for Pipeline
Dear Gearset Team,
We recently encountered a challenge where we had approximately 250 open PRs in production. To streamline the process, we needed to submit a report listing all open PRs, which were then reviewed by the Dev team. If a PR was deemed unnecessary, it needed to be declined. Additionally, some tickets were withdrawn, which required the associated PRs to be declined as well.
Currently, this task requires us to manually open each PR, copy the PR link, add the story linked to the PR, and include the assignee of that story. We then input all this information manually…
