User lookup list correctly populated when using # tag
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When typing '#ANewTag @' in Pulse, the user lookup list was not shown. Using '#ExistingTag @' worked as expected. This was a missed use case in work done to improve the performance of pzJquerymentionsInput by restricting REST calls, and has been resolved.

SurveyPage loads when ruleset is locked
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When the ruleset containing the survey rules was locked D_pzSurveyPage did not load and errors were generated. Investigation showed that if the flow was in a locked version, the PopulateShapeNodesFromFlowData activity did not call EvaluateConnectorState, causing the mapping of the transitions for connectors to fail in the activity MapBranchShapeConnectors. This has been resolved.

Added handling for Get Directions using http in mobile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When attempting to use the Get Directions action from from a newly launched window in the mobile application, an error indicating the popup blocker was enabled appeared even though popup blocker was disabled. This was caused by the map being requested with http while the current protocol was https, and has been resolved by adding logic that will handle the map from https conditionally based on the current protocol.

Question Wizard import will downcase answer types to match system requirements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The Question Upload wizard would not create a File type question while using a survey template. The template has a column Answer mode in which accepts an input of the type of answer expected, but in this use case "File" was given instead of "file", resulting in the question being created using the default values. To resolve this, during the import process when the system parses the file and gets the contents from the data using the pzSetdefaultValuesforQuestions DT, mode values will be explicitly set to lowercase.

File type handling added for cloud downloads on mobile app
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using the Pega cloud storage repository (Application -> Integration -> Content Storage) with the mobile app, it was possible to upload attachments but re-downloading the attachments failed. Investigation showed that this was due to the content-type appearing as application/* so the file type was not able to be identified. This was a missed use-case for returnFileForDownload(), and has been resolved.

Updates for nested "Append And Map To"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Nested actions "Append And Map To" in Data Transforms were producing incorrect results when offline. This was traced to all operations being performed on the Page List which was on the first level of nesting, which was caused by changing the Data Transform into JavaScript form for offline use. The JavaScript form of DataTransform uses variable the "targetListObj" to represent the Page List, and this same name was reused regardless of the "Append And Map To" nesting. An additional problem was seen with the "Update Page" Data Transform action when used with conjunction with a nested "Append And Map To" action: the action assumes that top level Pages exists, but "Update Page" did not create them. This caused the "Append And Map To" action to fail. To resolve this, the "Append And Map To" action will use suffixed variable names to reference nested Page Lists, and "Update Page" will create the Page if it doesn't exist.

Mobile app language remains consistent after data sync
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using a Field Service Mobile App where the locale of all workers was set to nl_NL, the UI was intermittently flipping from NL to EN and and back again. This was traced to the locale of the requestor (field worker) being lost during synchronization of the mobile app data to the server, causing the UI to fall back to the default value of EN. This has been resolved by ensuring the requestor always uses the chosen locale for the operator.

Hidden Question pages and answers will be saved to DB
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After a question page was shown and some values were entered, going back to the question and reverting an option caused the question page to not be visible, but the answer values persisted in the clipboard and were eventually saved into the database. This was a missed use case for Question page smart shapes, and has been resolved by updating the pzSetQuestionPageParams data transform so that whenever a question page is evaluated to either to show/hide, when the question page visibility is set to false and the pyClearAnswerValuesWhenQPHidden 'when' rule is overridden, the corresponding values will be wiped from the clipboard and only the required values will be saved to the database. However, please note this is not supported for branching logic and visibility conditions should be used instead.

Timing update for Signature Capture Control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
A signature could be lost when using the signature capture control if a signature was drawn then the Accept and Submit links were clicked in quick succession. The problem occurred more frequently (although was not limited to) when there were multiple signature capture controls on the screen. This issue was due to transaction mismatch error for few pzAttachSignatureWrapper requests (signature post requests) caused by triggering the next accept request before completing the previous accept request. To resolve this, an update has been made to display busy indicator immediately when the first accept button is clicked.
