SR-131072 · Issue 203709

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.

SR-131691 · Issue 202207

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.

SR-A4056 · Issue 211550

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.

Handling added for overriding questions rules

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

After overriding questions rules and then upgrading/validating Question Groups, questions were not shown. It was necessary to manually edit, save, and refresh for the questions to appear, affecting mainly Rule-PegaQ-QuestionGroup rules. This was traced to missing handling for this usecase. The commit was added in Revalidate and Save, which was committing different data because the upgraded data was not copied back to step page being used. Due to this, the commit in BulkValidateSave was overriding the changes done in the pzUpgradeSurveyInstance activity, and the survey upgrade was failing. To support this use, Page-Copy has been added to pzUpgradeSurveyInstance after the pzSaveSurveyInstance call step to copy the updated data to the step page which will later be committed by BulkValidateSave during revalidate and save.

INC-135720 · Issue 594793

Case link shows in Social messages for the old cases

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

After upgrade from v7, the case link was not visible for the cases that were created in the old platform version. In Pega 7.1.7, metadata was stored in .pyPrivacyContextor while the later versions are using .pxContextType for Case type to show the related data. To resolve this, new properties have been implemented to hold the Case ID link.

INC-136091 · Issue 598905

Activity updated for Mobile attachment access

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

Preview and download were not working for attachments stored in Pega Cloud Storage repository for mobile devices. Attempting to open an email attachment to preview or download resulted in a console error and the tracer showed the message 'Class pxLinkedRefTo does not exist'. This has been resolved by updating "pzpega_control_attachutil" to use the activity "GetAttachmentReference" for interactions with the attachments from any storage type.

INC-136202 · Issue 603904

Needed offline mobile resource added for upgraded channels

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

The error "Mobile login issue - "Resource missing. See client logs" appeared after upgrading the platform and updating the mobile channel interface. A logout button appeared, and clicking it generated a popup with "Cancel" and "Log off" buttons. Clicking Cancel returned the user to the default UI in the mobile screen. This was traced to py-avatar.css not being present, which is a resource needed for the offline application with the current platform, and this has now been added.

INC-136410 · Issue 591892

Check for mobile added

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

While performing external assignment in the Designer Studio, the console error "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'isMultiWebViewOfflinePegaMobileClient' of undefined" was generated. Investigation showed that this was caused by the pega_desktop_api checking pega.mobile.isMultiWebViewOfflinePegaMobileClient, which was undefined while not working on mobile. To resolve this, a check for mobile has been added.

INC-136768 · Issue 588451

Question Wizard import will downcase answer types to match system requirements

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

The Question Upload wizard would not create a File type question while using a survey template. The template has a column Answer mode in which accepts an input of the type of answer expected, but in this use case "File" was given instead of "file", resulting in the question being created using the default values. To resolve this, during the import process when the system parses the file and gets the contents from the data using the pzSetdefaultValuesforQuestions DT, mode values will be explicitly set to lowercase.

INC-138106 · Issue 601809

Documentation update for offline apps

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

Information in the top-level offline guidelines article has been updated to include a recommendation to avoid using declarative indices in offline-enabled mobile apps as these may cause multiple duplicated indices to be created in the database.
