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.

Help information updated for using Elastic Search with Report Definition

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

The support article "Configuring a report definition to run against an Elasticsearch index" has been updated to clarify that the search can pass multiple values with a space in pySearchString as it does OR operation on all the fields, and that filters in the report definition will be used when executing the report directly or when calling the report in the pxRetrieveSearchData activity. https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/system-administration/85/configuring-report-definition-run-against-elasticsearch-index

Removed redundant Microsoft Outlook email interaction chain

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

When opening an email interaction case, the email editor user interface area showed the complete email chain of the email for every new message that came in related to the case. This was traced to the difference in the selectors that various email clients use to construct a response to an email with email history in it, and has been resolved by updating the selectors for Microsoft Outlook in pyRichTextEmailHistorySelector so no conversation is repeated when using that client.

Mentioned user in Pulse appears correctly

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5

When loading user names while using the "@" functionality in a Pulse post, adding or tagging the operator/user in Pulse by entering each letter brought up the list, but when using copy/paste it was not possible to select the desired value from the user.Suggestions list of operators/users. If by chance the user name was selected from the suggested list, the operator ID was added instead of the full name. This has been resolved.

Webchat bot interaction box cleared on submit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

After upgrade, when using Google Chrome responses to webchat bot questions were not getting cleared from the chat input window after the enter/send button was clicked. This has been resolved by changing the order of refresh section and set value and disabling submit on refresh when refreshing pzSubmitArea.

Validate topics based on all topics in channel instead of default language

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

if a 'When Rule' was used in Email Receiver to provide some conditions, it was not possible to use topics from the dropdown which were trained with training data in prediction studio. This was a missed use case, and was traced to validation being based on the default language topics. To resolve this, the data page has been modified from getting default language topics to getting a union of topics. The datapage for default language topics has also been withdrawn.

More responsive attachment loading for interaction portal

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

Attempting to view a large email attachment in the interaction portal was resulting in slow loading and page responsiveness issues. Investigation showed there were numerous unnecessary height calculations happening when checking the dom elements, and this has been resolved with an update which will use the property mapping js file to make the screen more responsive when highlighting.

INC-197116 · Issue 684955

Handling updated for migrated cases

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

When performing a contact search in an interaction case that was migrated from an earlier version, clicking the Add Task button generated an exception when executing pzSendFeedbackToNLP(step 9) > pzFindTopicModel. This was traced to an unnecessarily call to pzMigrateInteractionCases each time a migrated case was opened, and has been resolved by updating the system to use JumpToLaterStep in Step1 of pzCheckAndMigrateInteractionCases to avoid calling MigrateCase again.

SR-D63638 · Issue 544015

Performance improvements for opening cases with embedded images

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Opening cases containing email interactions was taking an excessive amount of time. This was traced to the use of embedded images, icons, etc, in the message body and signature, and was caused by the pyGetAttachmentsbyCID activity running multiple times due to discussion threads that were duplicated over and over. In some cases, more than 360 calls to the database were seen. This has been resolved by shifting some case opening processes to executing when the listener thread gets the mail, and storing the results in a .pynote property, and a URL will be used to get images instead of embedding them directly to the HTML. If preferred, this can be reverted to the previous behavior by changing the when rule (pyUseCachedHtmlForDisplay) to false.

We'd prefer it if you saw us at our best.
