Attention: Beginning with Pega Platform™ version  8.7.4, Resolved Issues are being moved to the Pega Support Center.

 

 

Client-reported issues

A Resolved Issue presents a concise and informative summary of a Pega defect (bug) that you or other Pega clients have reported and the changes that have been made to address the bug, that is, the bug fix.

The Resolved Issues represent the only documentation specifically and directly for client-reported issues that are confirmed as defects and fixed in a particular release. If your support case reports an issue that you are having using a Pega product or service, an Incident (INC) is opened and triaged. If your INC identifies a Pega defect, a BUG report is generated from your INC and tracked for resolution in the Pega-internal implementation of Agile Studio. While the bug triage and fix development is in process for the targeted Pega Platform release, your support case (INC) is closed with the Resolution note, Will be fixed in upcoming patch. You and other clients can then view the Resolved Issues to find the resolved bug, the bug fix.

As a Pega client, you can view Resolved Issues both as a searchable web site and as a downloaded PDF that contains all of the Resolved Issues for a particular release.

If the Resolved Issues for the release you need to check are still documented on Pega Documentation, see Pega Platform Patch Releases Resolved Issues Download.
If the Resolved Issues for the release you need to check are in the Pega Support Center, scroll to the bottom of the specific Resolved Issues Support Document to see and open the File Attachment for the PDF.

Finding your Resolved Issues

If you know the ID of your support case (an older SR or a newer INC), you can search the Resolved Issues on that ID.

You can also browse the resolved issues by filtering on Platform Version or Capability, or both. Browsing by these filters lets you see what is included in a Pega Platform release (a major release, a minor release, or a patch release) before updating your Pega deployment.

You can also perform keyword searches to confirm that a hotfix you received has been delivered in a later Pega Platform release.

Pega support teams also use Resolved Issues when they post Pulses in your support cases to inform you if an issue that you are reporting has already been fixed. When this happens, the Pega support team encourages you to update to a major or minor release or to apply the latest patch release.

Support Articles

Effective 01 December 2021, Support Articles will not be generated from individual support cases reported for a specific product and version. Solutions to client cases will continue to be assessed and aggregated for publication as Support Documents

Formerly published Support Articles will be available on Pega Community's Archive page.

Support Documents

Support Documents of various types are found on the Pega Support Center including Troubleshooting Support Documents.

For more information, see Finding Support Doc subtypes using search facets for permalinks.

Keeping current with Pega
