Offline mobility enhancements in Pega 7.1.9
With the Pega 7.1.9 release, you can create richer offline-enabled mobile apps.
Adding a local action to view a PDF file
The Pega 7.1.9 enhancements enable you to do the following actions:
- Upload PDF files to the Pega 7 Platform as binary files so that they can be viewed offline when added to the cache manifest. For more information, see How to make a PDF file available for offline viewing.
Use parameterized data pages to configure cascading drop-down lists on any screen that is used in an offline app.
Use a declarative property to get current date and time on a mobile client while in offline mode.
Create a JavaScript equivalent of pre-processing and post-processing for flow actions that run when in an offline-enabled mobile app.
Additionally, the Address Map control displays a live map with location pins for a list of addresses when online and now also defaults to a predefined static map image when offline.
