  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  4. 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…

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. Slack notifications for non-CI deployments

    We use slack for monitoring which is great. We'd like to have the ability to setup more slack notifications for non-CI jobs.

    Additionally, we'd love to see deployment starting notifications as an option as well, to allow our greater insights into when it's coming.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. Add to Problem Analysis option to auto remove DelegatedAccount tab settings

    Add to Problem Analysis option to auto remove DelegatedAccount tab settings since it's an invalid tab and can cause validation/deployment errors. This saves a step of having to change Custom Object filter to Named Items and manually exclude DelegatedAccount when moving new profiles.

  11. Option to not run job periodically

    In the "Run job" field allow an option to don't run job periodically at all. Sometimes we nedd a job to run only manually, when needed, and now I need to remember to disable it manually each time

  12. Have you all ever thought of putting GPT into this and having AI built release notes?

    Have you all ever thought of putting GPT into this and having AI built release notes? Sonar has an AI Data Dictionary which we're trying to hack to use for this purpose, then i realized...HEY...this would be easier to do on the release layer right in gearset. Figured I'd share that I would bet a lot of customers would use that.

    An AI that explains the change between the feature branch and the main branch for the releases built would be so nutty on administrative time saved.

  13. Terse Slack/Teams Notifications

    Provide a Terse Notification format for Teams and Slack Notifications.

    Currently, the amount of information in Teams and Slack notifications is satisfactory, however the presentation in the chat app is very dense and can take some time to grok when you're browsing the history of these messages either scanning the jobs that have run over the past few hours in your channel, or just trying to understand what just happened from the push notification that went to your phone.

    Ideally, the first sentence is terse and is separated by white space from the remainder of the current paragraph format.

    The…

  14. Change Order of Steps for Data Deploys

    When configuring a data deployment, currently "Planning Deployment Steps" is the last step, but this is where I often encounter the "Error while planning deployment" because of recursion/etc. That means I need to back up through the previous 4 steps, adjust, and then go BACK through the related objects, data masking, disable rules steps before it will try again.

    The disable rules step in particular takes some time, making this a really tedious cycle to repeat.

    I understand needing the related objects step before validating the deployment, but if the order changed to:

    1. Select Objects,
    2. Select Related Objects
    3. Plan Deployment…

  15. More efficient spacing on Pipeline environments

    We can only see 4 sandboxes at a time when fully zoomed out. We have 9 sandboxes. Since we aren't able to zoom out further or rearrange the sandboxes we are constantly dragging the screen to pan up and down, to see the state of the orgs.
    There is so much whitespace in each node, any chance you could lessen the padding/spacing between the lines in each box/env/node, or between the nodes themselves? Maybe proportional to the max nodes in a single column?

  18. Comparison of draft deployments

    Two teams who are supposed to be working on different parts of the sandbox org have created two draft deployments. I would like to compare these draft deployments to see if there is any overlap of selected items.

  19. Gearset Unit Test Monitoring ignores test methods in classes at V27 or earlier

    For older orgs, one may have Apex classes at V27 or earlier. Such classes were allowed to also include testmethods.

    Gearset's Monitoring job ignores these test methods leading to a false sense of security that one's org is "correct"

    Example class is at V24

    class Foo {
    void doStuff() {}
    static void testmethod myTest() {
    new Foo().doStuff();
    System.assert(...);
    }

    The myTest will not be run by Gearset Unit Test Monitoring. It will be run by Setup > Apex Test Execution > Foo > Run tests

  20. Highlight "Failed Validation" Components

    If the metadata Deployment Validation step fails, and the user clicks the "Back to Comparison" button, the components that caused the failure should be highlighted on the screen for manual review.

    Currently, when a deployment fails on the validation step, my process is:
    - Wait until the Validation step is done
    - Sort by the Status to show Failures on top
    - Take a screenshot of the list of errors (hopefully less than a full screen of errors)
    - Click the "Back to Comparison" button
    - Use the screenshot like a checklist to work through the errors
    - Run Validation…
