Signature support added for external repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
On Accepting the signature for a repository, saving the case cleared the signature from the control, even though the signature was saved into the data repository. This was a missed use case, and support for signature has been added to external repository use.

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.

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.

Tags correctly displaying after Pega 8 Upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The context class for Tags was consistently picking up from the Access group but not consistently from the work class. This caused previously created tags in Pega 7 to not show up in Pega 8, and tags created through the Case Management->Social->Tag configuration were not showing up for user details. This was traced to several differences in the logic between the versions, and updates have been made to resolve this.

Survey Question Page enhanced to improve large question set performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When a survey was saved from survey designer authoring, all the questions within that survey were saved irrespective of whether the question was modified or not. This caused performance issues when there were more than 150 to 200 questions in survey. To resolve this, whenever a question is touched, a pyIsVisited flag will be maintained for each question and only those questions which have this flag set to true will be saved.

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.

Create Survey routes case correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The Create Survey utility was not routing the case to the user who initiated the case, but instead was routing it to the user who checked-in the case. This was traced to an error related to pxRequestor.pxUserIdentifier in the data transform pzpopulate survey params which is called when the survey utility is used, and has been corrected.

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.
