SnapStart supports SAML2 Authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using an HTTP Post to SnapStart into Pega using PRCustom style or PRAuth style SAML authentication, the login was looping back to the login request. Investigation showed that the Pega ACS was posting data properly back to the RelayState URL, however the login activity was not getting the SAMLResponse and simply sent a SAML Login Request again. This has been fixed by updating reqContextURI in case of SAML2 Authentication service so pyActivity=value will be passed.

Error when adding function filter will persist
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When an exception occurred while adding a filter in the report viewer, the error was shown but cleared due to an immediate refresh of the parent section. Analysis found that step2 of pzGetFiltersFromContent was failing, after which the error was shown, the section reload happened, and the error disappeared. To resolve the error being cleared prematurely, the pzOnLoadReloadReport control has been modified so that when there are messages on the top level page (pyReportContentPage), a parameter will be set on HarnessContextMgr to not to clear them during the next refresh call.

Corrected unexpected save warning when switching tabs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using the Interaction Portal, entering case data on one open tab and then switching to another open tab caused the system to display a Save warning message as though the Tab has been closed instead of switched. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip the dirty alert when bPrompt is false in the Ajax Container container case.

Data pages explicitly cleared after QP use
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
The Util Node was showing as Offline in the Search Landing Page, and when Jobs were submitted for execution from other Nodes the message "Detected active run with unreachable nodes" was logged. The util node, configured as a backgroundprocessing node, was running QPs; the queue size for custom QPs is 500 messages /queue items per minute, but investigation showed the requestor level and thread level data pages corresponding to the QP activities were not being cleared after use. This led to high heap memory issues that made the node unreachable, and has been resolved by adding code to explicitly remove the data pages when processing has finished.

When no active document is available on login, first document will be marked active
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
After logging into the user portal, attempting to perform operations like (opening a case/work object, opening reports etc.) caused the browser request to spin or freeze. The only way to recover was to close and re-launch the browser window/session and re-login. This issue occurred when there was an active reportdefinition document before the browser/node crash in the tabless dynamic container(DC) portal. After recovery, the dynamic container did not recreate the report definition document but instead tried to activate the first document in the portal, which in this case was the default harness configured in the Dynamic Container. As it was not yet loaded, exceptions were thrown. To resolve this, when no active document is available, the first document will be marked as the active document.

Corrected grey area seen when dragging tabbed layout Smartinfo scroll
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using Show Smartinfo in a tabbed layout group, a grey area was seen in the harness while scrolling. Scrolling up so that Smartinfo was out of view port caused another scroll bar to seen: one scrollbar was attached to the workarea div and the other to the body, and the gray area issue was only reproducible when explicitly dragging the (second) scrollbar attached to the body. To resolve this, if the popup is below the viewport using Smartinfo and the height calculated is negative, then the popup's height will be set to 0px.

Enhancement added to customize the clearing of error messages when performing modal actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Opening any modal dialog, for example adding a row in Table/Grid layout, cleared any existing validation error messages on UI screen. In order to make this behavior customizable, a flag has been introduced to control the clearing of error messages from primary pages on grid actions. Updates have been made in the ui_grid, ui_grid_dragdrop and ui_repeatlayout JS files to include this flag in activity parameters and the pzdoGridAction activity has been modified to consider the flag.

Correct service instance name passed for data flow in DSMStatus
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using the Connect-HTTP service "DSMStatus" to provide the node and status information as seen on the various tabs of the Designer Studio > Decisioning > Infrastructure > Services landing page, using DataFlow as the service parameter for the HTTP service method resulted in an empty response when the expectation was to get the information regarding the cluster details of Dataflow node type. This was traced to the service instance name not being parsed correctly when used for Data Flow services, and has been resolved by ensuring the correct service instance name is passed for this use.

Resolved ruleset save issue for Google Chrome/IE
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using particular versions of Google Chrome or IE, the intermittent error "pyComponentInterfaceClass: <user> does not exist or is not a valid entry for this ruleset and its prerequisites" appeared when attempting to validate an application, and the ruleset could not be saved. This was traced to changes made in the browser around password handling, and has been resolved by explicitly clearing out the pyComponentInterfaceClass if that value is not in use.
