Requestor token creation added for PRExternal authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When using a PRExternal authentication scheme, the csrfsession requestor token was not created. This caused a heavy volume of INFO logging messages in production due to the null token. This authentication path has now been added and the token will be correctly created for use.

Improved performance for incorrect password handling
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When the operator entered the wrong password in the login screen, numerous "Stream Overwritten" alerts appeared the Alert log. There was no workflow problem involved, but the logging indicated that there was an additional unnecessary call being made to Stream Web-Login, and that unneeded call has been removed to improve system performance and remove the error being logged.

Corrected validation error for Extract rule field length
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
A validation error noting that the field length of the table was limited to 30 characters was occurring when trying to check in an Extract rule even if the field value had been shortened. While checking in the extract rule, a block of code in the Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties was recomputing the pagelist's table name instead of using the one provided by the user. The Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties function has been modified to fix the issue.

Email image retrieval switched to Lazy Load

Resolved CommitError when trying to send email
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
An error related to email was intermittently encountered while working on a case. This was traced to a local setting for Rule-ObJ class that set a read-only privilege, which appeared to have conflicted with the expected permissions around email template saving. This was an unexpected use case, and has been resolved.

Mentioned user in Pulse correctly converted to hyperlink
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
In the Interaction portal, mentioning a user in Pulse using @ was not converting the name to the user name with hyperlink for Email Interactions. @ mentions were working as as expected in Phone Interactions. This problem was introduced as part of using OWASP to sanitize HTML user input in Rich Text support, and was due to OWASP converting @ to an HTML entity. To resolve this, the @ will be excepted from HTML conversion.

Optional feature to improve pxETReport performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Poor performance was seen when using pxETReport. This was caused by the system loading the recent cases widget by looking up all the ET cases within last 30 days, opening each ET case to check if it is from the same pyFrom email address, and then if yes, opening its related service case. On a complex system, this was potentially a slow process. To improve performance, the "Related cases" feature can now be disabled through an overridable 'when' rule.
