PUT and WHEN support added for REST

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

Data layer rules in Pega were not getting generated through the Wizard- ‘Create Rest Integration’ when invoking the Rest service though the PUT method. This has been resolved by adding support for PUT and DELETE in pypresentdatapageoptions.

Corrected revision management with decision data rules

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

When a new version of a decision data rule was created in dev studio and new propositions were imported or existing ones modified, the typical behavior was for the system to also automatically create a new version of the "pyEditElement" section even if the form was not changed. If this is done from revision management, the revision automatically creates a branch in the overlay application. If the revision contains a decision data rule, the branch contains an instance of the decision data rule and also an instance of the pyeditelement section, but when the revision was submitted, the generated package only contained the decision data rule and skipped the pyeditelement rule. This was traced to the pyEditElement section of the decision data rule not getting packaged because the package flag was not set to the section, and has been resolved by fixing the withdraw and reject scenarios by modifying the package flag in pyRemoveDDRules activity.

CKEditor table-related plugins updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

In order to successfully put a copy of previous correspondence below the auto email template, gaps had to be explicitly left below the auto email template before pasting the previous email correspondence. Otherwise the auto template disappeared and left only the previous email correspondence on the auto template. This was traced to issues with the CKEditor plugins, and has been resolved by updating to the latest table plugins from CKEditor (table,tabletools,showborders,tableresize,tableselection).

Hidden filters will not be shown on the resulting report

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

After setting up a Report Definition to be visible in report browser with all filters hidden, editing and saving the report resulted in the filter values being visible on the report. This has been resolved by modifying pzResolveCopyFilters activity so that If the filter view option is "Read only, allow no changes" and "Filter not visible in Viewer", it will skip copying the filter values on to the report definition page.

Stories Word doc includes uploaded images

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

When trying to generate a Word document for the user stories by going to the Options menu and using the 'Document' option, there were images within the user story description that were not rendered in the Word document. Investigation showed that images would show up in the Word document if the images were dragged and dropped or copied and pasted into the description field instead of using the image uploader button. This was because the image was stored in a separate folder when the upload button was used and only a link to the attachment location was added to the description vs using copy/paste or drag and drop directly stored the attachment content in the description. An enhancement has been added to handle the upload use case so the images will appear in the Word document.

InitializeRequestor utilized to prevent Inconsistent authentication requestor state

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

A 'resource not found' issue was causing an inconsistent Robot status. This was traced to an improperly configured application where the service authentication requestor was left in a wrong state but was being returned to the pool. To prevent the issue of requestors being in an odd state if they try to authenticate and an error occurs, the system has been updated to now always call initializeRequestor, not just for Authenticated cases.

SR-D5196 · Issue 444423

Hardcoded prweb reference removed from the REST connector to enhance flexibility

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

The DASS for pegarobotics/RobotManagerHostDomain allows specifying the instance where Robot Manager is hosted. Previously, connect-REST pzInvokeRoboticAutomation contained a reference to the resource path {RobotManagerHostDomain}/prweb/PRRestService/robotics/v1/automations which forced the use of prweb. In order to add flexibility, the hardcoded prweb reference has been removed from the REST connector resource path, and the pegarobotics/RobotManagerHostDomain) DASS's default value has been updated to include 'prweb' in it. Local sites should update DASS accordingly to point to an updated URL with prweb if needed.

Improvements made to Excel data import handling for decision tables

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

On importing an Excel file into a decision table, the values modified in Excel were getting updated even though the rule was checked in after the import. Investigation showed that the API which handled converting the imported Excel file for use on the clipboard was defaulting to save actions if the rule was not checked out or in private edit before the import. In order to prevent future issues, the following changes have been made in this area: The "Import" button will be enabled only after clicking on checkout button, and discarding the checkout will also discard any imported values. When checkout for the rule set is disabled, only the save option will be displayed on the decision table. When the import button is visible and enabled, imported values will not be preserved if Actions -> Refresh is used before saving. When rulesets are disabled, the decision table can only be private edited and at that time the save and import buttons will be visible. When private edit is visible, the import button will be in a disabled state.

Exception handling added for upgraded custom decision tables

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

After upgrade, the status fail message "There has been an issue; please consult your system administrator" appeared with a blue screen in the Run window when attempting to run a Decision table from Actions-> Run option. This impacted the ability to create unit test cases. Analysis showed the issue occurred for any decision table where "Evaluate All rows" was enabled and list properties were used in Actions if there was no value for the list property after the execution of decision table. This was traced to a NullPointerException in a RunRuleFromPage activity in a customized in PUnit ruleset, and was caused by having list properties in the actions of a decision table that had not been populated during rule execution. Exception handling has been added to resolve this.

SR-D20950 · Issue 489656

Removed unnecessary commit from case creation with exception

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

If a case had an exception when it was being created using the case creation API, it was sent to the problem flow functionality which performed a commit (All defer items) in the same interaction after it it performed a commit with error handling. This resulted in an Exception 3273 message. To resolve this, the unnecessary commit has been removed.
