Can I list changesets (inbound or outbound) with Browserforce ?

[RupertBarrow]

If this is possible, please could you suggest directions to writing a plugin for this ?

@RupertBarrow I like the idea and I think there might be other people who would love that as well (maybe @Szandor72 wants this or already has a solution). Out of stand I don't know any API which returns this info. So it might be a good use case for browser automation.

But honestly I would not recommend to implement this here. A typical plugin for sfdx-browserforce-plugin

• checks or applies features and settings
• its implementation should be idempotent
• the output of the plan/apply command designed for this purpose and not customizable

I guess many of the sfdx-browerforce-plugin concepts are not needed/appropriate for your requirements. I assume you want something like

$ sf changesets list outbound -o mydevorg
featX
featY
$ sf changesets list inbound -o qasandbox
featX
featY
featZ
fix1
fix2

having also maybe a --json flag.

Sounds a lot like a separate sf plugin to me. If you plan to start this I could share with you my lessons learned and what I might do differently nowadays.

OK thanks for your feedback. I'll look into writing an SF/SFDX plugin for this. cc @Szandor72

Trying it out now : thanks Copilot !

Write a CLI in Javascript to scrape a web page from Salesforce.
Improve this by accepting a authurl as a parameter, as a replacement for username and password authentication.
Improve this by using SFDX to authenticate and open the browser : SFDX should log in using the auth url.
Improve this by browsing the setup page for outgoing changesets, instead of a Salesforce record page.
