Application selections only announced when visible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The elements of the application switcher were being announced by the NVDA screen reader even when toggled off, i.e. not visible. The issue was occurring because the focus was remaining at the search bar even after closing the app switcher window, and has been resolved by adding the necessary logic to switch the focus.

pzIsScalar 'when' rule updated for Value list and Value group
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When using the GET/Cases/{ID} API to fetch details about a case, an intermittent HTTP 500 error appeared. This was traced to the 'when' condition pzIsScalar being returned as true for the ValueList property types and trying to set the value on the summaryData embedded page. This has been resolved by updating the pzIsScalar 'when' rule to better handle Value list and Value group.

Logic updated for DX API retrieving View/Action ID using embedded property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
While calling the DX API using Assignment ID and action ID, a 500 error response was logged indicating that the server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request. Investigation traced this to the logic used for resolving an embedded property referenced in a control/field to identify the correct page class. In a non-work object context for flow actions the new assign page doesn't exist, but the system was checking for it and clearing off errors from the named page. This has been corrected.

DX API returns properly referenced icon class for embedded page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When using the DX API to build an Angular JS UI, the response returned from the GET /cases/{ID}/actions/{actionID} api did not return the iconStyle for an icon class that uses a property reference when the flow is on an embedded page. This has been resolved by adding code to set the correct context for pzAPICreateJsonForModes and pzAPICreateJsonForField Rule-Utility-Function.

Lock conflict resolved for AssignmentCheck
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The error "Unable to unlock this work object" sporadically appeared in both the runtime log and Pega RULES log when the robot was trying to create a case in Pega using an API call. Investigation showed that as the case was created, it was pulled by another robot (another requestor) which was using the GetAssignments API. This caused the perform assignment check to fail. To resolve this, a 'when' rule has been added to the performAssignmentCheck Activity.

Security updated to allow Access group switching
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a member of two different access groups attempted to switch from one group to another, an "access denied" message occurred. This was traced to the use of BAC, and has been resolved by updating the pzProcessApplicationSwitch activity to use the pzEncryptURLActionString function to register the request.

Added check for ABAC policy to getassignmentdetailsinternal
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When an attribute based access control (ABAC) policy was defined on a particular class, the policy was properly applied when browsing instances of the class and directly opening the work object. However when an associated assignment was processed via the DXAPI (using the assignments service) the security was not applied and users who should not have access were able to progress the case. This has been resolved by adding a check in the pzgetassignmentdetailsinternal activity to check for work object opening security.

Updated bulk action audit history logic and security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, using the standard bulk action feature did not record an audit history entry for the SLA action on a case. This was traced to changes made around authorization for opening worklists when using pzBulkProcessItem that limited the audit history to reassign, transfer or transfer assignment, and has been resolved by updating the login the Work-pzBulkProcessItem activity. In addition, the Require authentication to run checkbox has been enabled on the Security tab of the activity, and the Allow invocation from browser checkbox has been disabled.
