Published Release Notes

View mini user profiles in Pulse

You can now view mini profiles of users who post messages and users who are referenced in Pulse, by clicking the name of the user. A mini profile contains the user's job title, reporting manager, organization, and links to call and send email to the user. By seeing a brief overview of a user profile, you can access important information about users and contact them more quickly.

For more information about Pulse, see:

• App Studio – Communicating with users by using Pulse
• Dev Studio – Communicating with users by using Pulse

Use spaces to collaborate with users

You can now collaborate with other users in your application on a specific area of interest by using spaces. By restricting the discussion of certain topics to the users of a space, you can avoid broadcasting irrelevant messages to all users in your application.

For more information, see:

• App Studio – Collaborating with users by using spaces
• Dev Studio – Collaborating with users by using spaces

Collaborate on shared content by using documents

You can now share additional information about cases with all users in your application by using documents. Documents enable you to view shared content on a landing page and collaborate on the content with other users in Pulse so that you can resolve cases more quickly.

For more information, see:

• App Studio – Collaborating on shared content by using documents
• Dev Studio – Collaborating on shared content by using documents

Ability to search case attachments in Pega Cloud Services

File repositories in Pega Cloud Services are now indexed. Indexing allows your application users to search case attachments from end user portals based on content and metadata.

Default filter settings for Pulse feed sources

Set default filters for Pulse messages, so that users see only relevant posts. Users can temporarily change these settings at run time to view messages from different feed sources, and restore the default settings by refreshing the page.

For more information, see Adding a feed source for the activity feed.    

Improved creation of When rules with the condition builder

Define conditions for When rules by using the condition builder view. You can create new or select existing values, and then group conditions with ANDs, ORs, or advanced logic. The condition builder does not support functions; the method for defining the conditions to use functions is the same as in the previous versions of Pega Platform™. 

For more information, see Defining conditions with a condition builder, Defining conditions for a When rule.
