Certificate match will use Subject Distinguished Name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Signature verification was failing due to the system not finding the matching root certificate for the chain. The root certificate was in the trust store, but the system found a different certificate first and that other certificate (an intermediate certificate) was not considered a valid certificate for validating the whole certificate chain. This was traced to filtering on the Issuer Distinguished Name (DN) instead of the Subject DN and was due to intermediate certificates potentially having the same Issuer as a root certificate (e.g. if that root certificate was used to create the intermediate certificate). To resolve this, an update has been made to check the Subject DN instead of Issuer DN.

Session timeout adjusted for use with Apple Safari
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A configured browser session logout timer was not working with the Apple Safari browser. This was traced to browser-specific handling for self.location.href and has been resolved by adjusting the logic and moving it inside a setTimeout to improve cross-browser compatibility.

Updated logic for Spinner API used in DateTime control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When selecting 11, 22, 33, 44 in minutes in the DateTime picker, 11 was rounded off to 10, 22 was rounded off to 20, 33 was rounded off to 30, etc. This was due to the match and increment behavior in the UI Spinner Js API used by the DateTime control, and has been resolved by modifying the logic used to calculate the nextIndex in the keydownHandler API under ui_spinner.js .

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade to from Pega 6 to Pega 8 some of the Map Value rules were not working. This was due to the handling for blank default values which was changed in Pega 7. In order to support backwards compatibility, a new 'when' rule has been added which allows customizing whether or not blank values are allowed for the Map value default columns. pyAllowBlankValues will default to "false".

Withdraw task notification uses correct email sender
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When withdrawing a Task, the withdraw email was sent from the default email box instead of the expected Application default email box. This was traced to the 'pyTaskDeleted' (notification name for withdraw task) value not being present, which meant the system fell back to the task 'pyTaskAssigned' notification name. To resolve this, an update has been made to have pyIsPulseNotificationDefinition return true for a pyTaskDeleted notification.

Value Finder updated for use with external Cassandra nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Attempting to use the Value Finder feature resulted in the error "Running Simulation is not possible because the required services are not available. Contact your System Administrator to enable the data flow and decisioning data store services." Analysis traced this to a check which identifies whether there is more than one internal node available for CDH/ DSS node. Since there were only external nodes available in this scenario and no internal nodes, the method returned false and returned the error when the CDH / VF page was launched. To resolve this, the check has been modified to allow for external Cassandra.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.

Handling added for missing div when opening work object
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
In mobile offline app, opening a work object in a specific scenario for the second time resulted in an endless busy indicator. It was not possible to navigate away, and the app had to be closed and reopened to continue. Investigation showed that some app sections had an action that tried to load a harness section where one specific div was missing, and this has been resolved by updating reloadSectionOSCOHandler to handle the missing div in the failure callback. Additionally a console.error() will appear for the missing section.

Admin Studio will consider cluster protocol when returning listener status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a few nodes in standalone mode for BIX extract combined with server nodes using Hazelcast, opening the admin studio pages with service discovery caused an error to be thrown. This was traced to the system writing an entry to pr_sys_statusnodes table as an embedded node whenever a BIX extract was triggered, causing those standalone nodes to be incorrectly considered by the listener landing page. This has been resolved by configuring the system to either return the local member when the cluster protocol is standalone or to return all Hazelcast members if the cluster protocol is Hazelcast.
