This analyzer will help detect potential problems when deploying changes to standard applications.

When deploying additions or deletions to standard applications (metadata type of Custom Application with name starting with standard__), Gearset will suggest that these additions/deletions are removed from the deployment. An edit to a standard application will not be flagged.

Salesforce provides standard applications (e.g. Sales or Service) for an org when it is created. They cannot be created or deleted via the metadata API - Salesforce will fail the deployment if this is attempted. (They can, however, be edited.) One way that this can happen is deploying between scratch/sandbox orgs and production orgs - they may have a different set of standard apps which would result in the comparison showing additions/deletions between the orgs.

Gearset will check all Custom Application metadata deployments where:

For each of these, after you confirm the problem analyzer action, Gearset will omit these additions/deletions from the deployment.
