Latency resolved for sites with repeated SAML authentication requests
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
In an installation using SAML SSO for authentication, repeatedly initiating SAML IDP requests were eventually causing poor system performance. To resolve this, support has been added to disable replay cache handling during SSO login via a DSS.

Assistance and diagnostics added for issue with opening imported 'when'
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade, attempting to open rules that were developed on lower environments and then imported resulted in unknown errors. A workaround has been added to skip and log any corrupted property that might be interfering with the rule opening: enable Skip-Corrupt-Property to put this in place. To improve diagnostics, the new logger NBA-WME-DEBUG has been added. If the error continues after using Skip-Corrupt-Property, Skip-Corrupt-Property should be disabled and NBA-WME-DEBUG should be enabled and kept active until the issue occurs again.

Documentation updated for using Connect MQ with clustered queues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update to Pega Platform v8.6, an issue was seen with Connect MQ rules that used an alias queue. The support documentation has been revised to outline the necessary steps for updating an application to perform as expected. In the Pega-IntegrationEngine ruleset, create the following dynamic system settings and their default values: "mq/pmo" = 0 "mq/gmo" = 0 "mq/oo_request" = 1040 "mq/oo_response" = 16 For more information, dynamic system setting support articles are available.

SQL queries modified to use qualified table references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Portal launch in the development environment was taking an excessive amount of time, as were some standard reports. The PurgeAssemplyDatabaseCache agent activity also generated an error regarding "(internal.cache.RAPurge) ERROR - Purge, unexpected error in removeOldAppCentricCacheData". These issues were traced to SQL queries that contained pr_sys_app_hierarchy_flat without a schema qualifier, and have been resolved by changing to class qualified table references.

Timeout check added to authorization to preserve portal context
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using SAML SSO Authentication Service with "Use access group timeout" and "Redirect to IDP login after logout" selected and "Force authentication" not selected, manually logging out correctly returned the view to the custom SSO login page but the timeout logout returned the default Pega login page as if SSO was not in use. Analysis showed there was a "Failed to open portal" error after doing some action post timeout, and this was traced to pyPortal page not having a value. Investigation showed this was blank due to the creation of new thread while the requestor state was perceived as unauthenticated because of the timeout. To resolve this, a timeout check has been added to the following: Authorization#setActiveAccessGroup(java.lang.String, boolean, boolean, java.util.Map) BasicApplicationContextImmutableImpl#applyApplicationProperties

Updated UUID generation to function with Ping Identity
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Issues were experienced in trying to achieve connectivity using SAML 2.0 for an SSO solution. Ping Identity imposes a constraint on the format of the Request ID that it receives, and fails if that ID does not start with a letter or underscore. This ID is a random UUID generated by java code, and it had no set leading character. In order to allow full interoperability, the UUID generation has been replaced with a custom implementation which generates unique IDs starting with "_".
