Published Release Notes

Discontinued support for list view and summary view rules

The list view rule and the summary view rule are deprecated, and support for these rules has been discontinued. Existing list view and summary view reports will continue to work on supported browsers. However, the last version of Internet Explorer that list view and summary view rules support is Internet Explorer 11.

You cannot create new list view or summary view reports. Instead, create list reports and summarized reports by using the report definition rule. To prevent display issues, re-create the custom list view and summary view reports that you need as report definition reports.

Process Outline view is unavailable

Process Outline view is no longer available as of this release. Use Case Designer instead to configure your processes. For advanced options, you can open the underlying flow for a process in Process Modeler.

For more information, see Designing a case type and Diagram tab on the Flow form.

Access views in one location

You can access the relevant views for your case type in one place. By using the Views tab in Case Designer, you can review and edit views that are used in your case life cycle. You can also configure standard views to quickly customize the fields that are displayed when a user creates, edits, or reviews a case.

Attachment support for requirements

Requirements now support attachments. You can add attachments from the Designer Studio > Application > Profile > Requirements landing page, the Add/Edit Requirement modal, or the requirement rule form.

Use the UI Tree to view artifact hierarchy

The UI Tree tool allows developers and designers to view the hierarchy of Pega artifacts in an application, both when using Designer Studio and at runtime. Activating this tool displays a column on the right-hand side of the screen containing a list of the artifacts on the current page, including harnesses, panels, sections, layouts, flow actions, cells, and properties. Selecting any of these elements allows for read-only interaction with hierarchy information.

See How to use the UI Tree tool.

Ability to view a PDF file while offline

Users of offline-enabled mobile apps can now tap a button to view a PDF file, regardless of whether the user is online or offline. The associated button, link, or icon must have a Run Script action defined that calls the pega.ui.pdf.view() function with two parameters: applicationName and pdfName. The PDF file itself must be uploaded to a Rule-File-Binary rule.

For more information, see How to set up viewing of PDF file while offline.

View external data entities in one location

The External Data Entities landing page provides a consolidated view of all the existing data entities in your product. You can access this page by clicking Designer Studio > Data Model > View external data entities. Use this landing page to identify the data sources that are readily available to use and the sources that need to be replaced with production data sources.

Cannot view all custom context posts in Pulse

When you use Pulse in a custom context, the custom context label is displayed as plain text instead of as a link that you can click to view all posts that are associated with the custom context.

For more information about Pulse, see the help topic Pulse.

Quickly add an attachment step to your processes
