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.

HandleResponses updated for use with optimized campaign
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After updating from Pega 8.4, responses were not processed in the pxHandleResponses Data flow if the "pyCampaignOptimization" flag was set to true. This was traced to a missed use case for an optimized campaign, and has been resolved by modifying the condition in HandleResponses.

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.

Special characters escaped for use in "is in List" lookups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After creating a specific criterion on any proposition using a string property, the "Is In List" operator, and a customer list with one value containing a "$", clicking save or check in resulted in the exception error "Problem invoking function: pega_decisionengine_propositionfilterfua.pzPropositionFilterMethodBody--(PublicAPI,ClipboardPage) java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal group reference at java.util.regex.Matcher.appendReplacement(Matcher.java:857) ". This has been resolved by escaping regular expression control characters in string replacement, which will allow the use of characters such as the $ sign for "is in List" lookups.

Interaction History properly saved when running strategy on a different data flow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Customized Interaction History properties that had been added to pyInteractionHistoryConfiguration and pyDefaultWorkingSet and saved into the PR_DATA_IH_FACT table were not being saved properly after upgrading from 7.3 to 8.3. This was a missed use case and has been resolved.

Harness used to determine read-only for button/text input
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.

Enhancements added for very heavy use of strategy decision logic
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Recent updates were made to improve memory performance for scenarios where a single request primary page had tens of thousands of pages under an embedded pagelist property and the decision logic involved a strategy running on all the pages in that page list. To further improve performance, the array iterator has been modified and a DSS has been added that makes the threshold (50) in SSAExecutionContextIteratorFactory tunable.

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.

Updated class handling for View field security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.

DX API returns properly referenced icon class for embedded page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.
