GetBinaryFilesRef updated for resolving wildcard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrading from 8.2 to 8.4, errors related to "Unable to serve file java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal characters detected in the path" appeared numerous times during full syncs, either on first time login or after cache clear. This was traced to normalizeRelativePath failing, and was caused by a resource declaration in pzGetBinaryFilesRef that encountered an issue where wilcarded URLs were not automatically resolved while packaging Static resources. This has been resolved.

Mobile logging updated for data page required parameters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, the number of warnings increased substantially in the mobile app log file for D_Pages, specifying "Required parameter X for data page X cannot be blank." This was traced to the forced logging related to missing required parameters for Parameterized DataPages during DeltaSyncs. In order to increase the value of the logging, the process has been moved from being called before packaging the Data Page to being printed later in packaging code and set to warn only about any unsupported data page configuration with required parameters. As a workaround, the warnings may also be added to a denylist in "Dev Studio > Configure > Mobile > Offline Configuration" to block them.

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.

Field Service mobile refresh timing updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
A configuration in the Field Service mobile app used to select and map data from a modal section to a wrapper section used "pega.fsm.mobileutil.reloadSection" to refresh the wrapper section and make the data visible after the mapping. If the refresh was performed after the initial login, the refresh was done on only a portion of the screen and resulted in incorrect data being shown to the user. However, continuing to fill in the section and then saving and reopening the task displayed the correct results. The issue was reproducible only on the first attempt after clearing cache/date: subsequent uses refreshed properly. This was traced to the timing of the configured actions, which caused the refreshSection action to be triggered before the runDataTransform action execution was completed. This has been resolved by adding code that will pause the action queue until the runDataTransform action completed.

Corrected runtime name length check for custom fields to resolve logged error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The error "Notification_MobilePush.Action ERROR - Can't parse JSON string to map" was being frequently logged. Investigation showed that in the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class, setting @String.length(customFields)>0 where customFields was a local value caused the runtime length check on customFields to fail. To resolve this, the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class has been modified from using @String.length(customFields)>0 to use @String.length(Local.customFields)>0.

Mobile channel upgrade wizard correctly initiated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, the offline mobile app was not loading the correct portal. This was traced to missing properties needed to launch the upgrade wizard for channels upgrading from a previous release to v8.5, and has been resolved by setting those properties in upgrade activities.

Unchecked Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails report definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade from Pega 7.4. to Pega 8.4, the use of a custom class 'XX-Data-OperatorLoginDetails' which pattern-inherits from Data-Admin-Operator-ID was causing the error "Union not applied because properties [pyImageFileName, pyEmailAddress, pyUseLocale, pyDefaultTimeZone] are not optimized in Data-OperatorLoginDetails”. This happened when the case manager portal was launched and the report definition pyFeedUserDetails (introduced in newer releases) was running by default, and was due to the presence of a few unoptimized properties when the report definition had "Report on Descendant classes" - include all descendant classes, checked by default. To resolve this, the checkbox to Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails is now set as unchecked by default.

Null check added for pzinskey in CSLoadSelectedArticle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
In step 5 of CSLoadSelectedArticle, there is a call to pzGetAssociatedTags. Step 1 of pzGetAssociatedTags is an Obj-Browse with MaxRecords set to 100000000, and there is logic to retrieve records where pxLinkedRefFrom = Primary.pzInsKey. If Primary.pzInsKey is null, then the Obj-Browse will fetch all of the records. In order to prevent an unnecessary flood of results, a when condition has been added in the CSLoadSelectedArticle rule to check pzInskey so that when the context is empty the system will not call the pzGetAssociatedTags and return the entire record set.
