Performance improvements for Test Strategy data flow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
In the Test Strategy panel under Single case -> "Settings", selecting the "Data flow" option and choosing CustomerData dataflow was taking an excessive amount of time to run on a system with an extremely large database. To improve performance, two areas have been addressed: 1) the default behavior for record key suggestions in the test panel has been modified to collect only the ID as the additional data is not necessary at that time; 2) a DSS has been added that will opt out of reading and collecting the customer IDs in order to minimize data stored on the clipboard.

Strategy handling updated for very large systems using IH summary
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When a Strategy in a Real-time dataflow used IH Summary on a system with more than 5000 groups for one eventKey, the message "Error retrieving aggregates from Cassandra KVS" intermittently appeared. Investigation showed that if the number of result rows was greater than the FETCH_SIZE (set to 5000), it meant another read to Cassandra was required and an exception was generated. To resolve this, updates have been made so that instead of returning maps, the system will return iterators and change them to map on the calling thread.

PerformCriteria contains CurUserHasRequiredSkills 'when' rule

A customer version of the PerformCriteria data transform was generating a validation error due to a qualified statement that resulted in a null result. This has been resolved by updating the PerformCriteria DT to include the CurUserHasRequiredSkills 'when' rule.

Corrected approval step task message
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When a case progressed to the approval step, the task name did not properly appear as part of the "Please approve or reject this" message. In another scenario, a portal which supported locale switching was not translating "Please approve or reject this" when the locale was switched, but instead displayed the message in the original language. Investigation traced this to the pzInstructionsForApproval data transform storing the localized field value, causing it to persist inappropriately. This has been resolved.

Landing page refresh modified to avoid frequent reloads
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Approximately every two weeks, clients were able to login but it was not possible to work as the landing page refreshed constantly until all of the nodes were rebooted and the issue was cleared. Investigation indicated the frequent reloads were related to the cacheing of the operator details, and this has been resolved by updating the datapage reload strategy based on 'when' so frequent reloads will be avoided.

iOS file attachment works in Safari
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Attaching PDF and images from iOS devices using Safari was not working. This was traced to iOS 13 launching the file browser by default if the file-input element had an accept=/ attribute value pair, and has been resolved.

Adding handling for custom image on S3 storage space
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When using an S3 repository for Content storage, trying to create a new space with a custom image did not upload the image. Investigation showed that when attachment storage is configured as an external repository, the pyAttachStream property which is used to create the the thumbnail was getting cleaned as part of the saving logic. This has been resolved by adding an update that will hold the attachStream value in a local property before calling attachment save.
