Performance improvement for message processing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Severe performance degradation was seen for message processing in pdc-central after update. Investigation showed there was an issue with a write lock not not being acquired while reloading the datapage definition, causing concurrent dirty reads and multiple definition reloads. To resolve this, DeclarativePageDefinitionCacheImpl has been updated to acquire a write lock to prevent dirty reads of the same stale data page definition while reloading.

Added pause after Library Extraction to ensure Rule-Utility-Functions are present
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade from Pega 7 to Pega 8, nodes were not starting and the error "pub.context.InitializationFailedError: PRNodeImpl init failed" appeared. This was traced to an issue with the pzSharedTenant rule: when pzSharedTenant (Rule Access When) is assembled by the system, it uses the compareTwoValues Rule-Utility-Function. If the system is not able to find the correct version of compareTwoValues, it adds an UnresolvedAssemblyError in the assembly of the pzSharedTenant, causing the startup failure. This has been resolved by adding an await call after the LibraryExtraction task to wait for it to complete. This wait will ensure that the library extraction task completes before starting the search task which uses Rule-Utility-Functions

New or updated operators properly updated on other nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Newly imported or updated operators were not getting properly pulsed to other nodes. This was traced to operator pages being cached while the system pulse for 'Data-Admin-Operator-ID' was not permitted on the allow list, and has been resolved.

Handling added to correct class setting during DX-API
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a DX-API call was made (assignments/{ID}/actions/{actionID}/refresh) the ApplyPageInstructions activity was updating the case with an incorrect class, causing the rules from the wrong class to be picked and blocking the case progression. This has been resolved by setting the proper parameter Param.workPage while calling pzApplyPageInstructions from pzUpdateCaseWithRequestBody to calculate the proper class for the content.

Service Email handling updated for MSGraph "From" address
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
While creating cases via email listener, the "From" address was not shown when using MSGraph. This was an issue with extracting the display name when MSGraph is used, and has been resolved by adding double quotes to display the name unconditionally.

Documentation updated to clarify displaying property values for Declare Expressions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The documentation regarding Declare Expressions rules has been updated to clarify that declare expressions do not support displaying values of target properties in the user interface if the target property is an embedded property and if the calculation engages forward chaining. Declare expressions always display property values if the calculation uses backward chaining. During forward chaining, the system might render the UI before populating the clipboard, and the properties are not visible in the UI. To show updated values, define refresh conditions in the UI to get new values from the server when the values change.

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.
