PackageComponent updated for use with repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Exporting a zip file created by the Component wizard to a repository resulted in an error, however the same process worked as expected when the zip file was created by the Product wizard. Investigation showed that pxPackageComponent was not kept up to date with new metadata requirements for Artifactory export. This has been resolved by modifying pxPackageComponent step 7 to set Param.ArtifactType to "component" and Param.ArtifactName to [component name]_[component version]. A privilege check has also been added to zipMoveExport.

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 8.6
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.

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".

Harness used to determine read-only for button/text input
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
If a button/text input was configured to always be editable in a section by using the /v1/cases/{ID}/pages/{pageID} API (say i.e PageID as Review), the button/text input was always returned as readonly. This was due to the API being hardcoded to return readonly info, and has been resolved by updating pzGetPageDetails to not force read-only and let the harness configuration decide the behavior.

Handling added for new case type using reuse case life cycle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Creating a new Case Type in a branch ruleset using the 'Reuse case life cycle' option was not working, and the error "branch rulseset not a candidate" was generated. pxCreateCaseDataPages that are called as part of creating a case rely on Param.RuleSetName; generally this parameter is set in the param page when other assets are created. When Reuse case life cycle was selected, other assets were not created and param.RuleSetname was not set. This affected pxCreateCaseDataPages when branch parameter was provided. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by setting param.RuleSetName from param.ruleset to fix the issue.

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 8.6
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 RUF.

Updated class handling for View field security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using a defined View which returned a page and its fields and used an inherited custom work party definition, trying to update the pyWorkParty(Customer) by calling the "post /assignments/{ID}/{actionID}" did not work as expected when Field Security was ON. This was traced to the field security relying on the design time page class information stored in the list/group property, and has been updated to resolve the view fields using actual class information from the work page.

Upload with "Select File" works in Microsoft IE
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using Microsoft Internet Explorer, uploading a document was failing on the first try when using the "Select File" button. The second attempt worked as expected. This was an unintended consequence of work done to enable attaching the same file after deleting it, and was related to Internet Explorer calling an "onChange" which caused the "pzAttachFileDDFileList" section which is used to display the attachments uploaded to not be properly refreshed. This has been resolved by updating the pzMultiFilePath control handling of the success and failure of the upload function call.
