New Capability for Jira Integration in Salesforce Workflows: Option to select Source Branches and Release tickets

Opsera’s latest update to Git to Git Merge Sync Task allows users to alternatively select source branch instead of default feature branch to migrate metadata across branches. This expanded selection empowers development teams to have better control over which code changes are being integrated into different branches, facilitating smoother collaboration and reducing the chances of conflicts or errors. Previously, users were limited to selecting only the feature branches associated with the selected Jira tickets

Moreover, the option to select release tickets within the migration feature provides organizations with enhanced validation in their workflows. By capturing package XML at the release Jira ticket level, organizations can maintain detailed records of changes associated with each release, facilitating better tracking and management of software updates. In addition, users can now select multiple Jira projects for a single task, with the limit being up to 5 projects. For more info, read here.
