Salesforce Change Set Helper Chrome extension

Salesforce Change Set Helper enhances the standard Salesforce change set screen with sorting, search, a last-changed-date column, validation, and comparison against other orgs. It's best for Salesforce admins and developers managing deployments between orgs. The catch: it only improves the change set page, not full release management.

What Salesforce Change Set Helper does

Salesforce Change Set Helper injects extra controls into the standard Salesforce change set interface. It adds a last-changed-date column, lets you sort and search through the list of components, and provides validation and org-to-org comparison tools that aren't part of the default Salesforce UI. It runs directly inside your existing Salesforce pages rather than as a separate app.

Who it's for

Salesforce admins and developers who regularly build change sets to move configuration between sandboxes and production are the main audience. Long change sets with many components are hard to scan in the default UI, and the extension's sorting, search, and comparison features are aimed at making that review faster and more accurate before deployment.
