File Listener made more resilient
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When file listener encountered a FileNotFoundException as a consequence of sporadic AmazonS3Exceptions, the listener was disabled and no retries were made. In order to make the file listener more resilient, FileMatchConcentrator has been updated. While file listener is running and trying to get the next set of files, if the isDirectory() method returns false due to a non-existent directory or some other intermittent issues, instead of throwing an exception and shutting down the file listener, the system will now log the exception and continue.

Description input for new reports restricted to 64 characters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After saving a report with a description containing more than 64 characters, trying to delete the same report generated error messages saying the report description exceeds 64 characters. There was no maximum character limit set on the description input when creating/editing/save as a report. The delete modal shows any page-level warnings, so the guard rail warnings show up at that time. This has been resolved by disallowing the creation of a description greater than 64 characters in length.

Revoke Access Token check removed from OAuth Client Registration
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When client credentials were implemented, the OAuth 2.0 Client Registration form was designed such that once the instance was created and a token issued, the access tokens were deleted on save. Process changes now indicate that it should be possible to save the form because it may only have History Description/Usage changes made to it and Revoke Token and Regenerate Secret buttons are already available. To address this, the Revoke Access Token check has been removed from the validate activity of Client Registration.

Added ability to disable dirty form browser alerts
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
In order to add support for those who do not want to see a browser alert pop-up when cancelling a work item after making changes but do want the out-of-the-box Dirty popup to be displayed, an update has been made to add a configurable flag. If pega.u.d.bUseNativeDirtyConfirm is set to false, only Pega dirty dialogs will be shown. Setting it to true will show the Pega dirty dialog or else the browser dirty dialog for an event object.

Cancel button on embedded GridRow cancels single action
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a modal Flow Action contained a Table with the Row operations configured as Master-detail and the Detail flow action was specified, if a validation error defined in a Validation rule (i.e. other than required field error) occurred while entering details for one of the rows and the Cancel button for that row was clicked, the entire action was cancelled and the modal window was closed without saving anything. This has been resolved by updating the system to prevent the modal closure if a row is added and then cancelled.

Custom rich text editor plugin support updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
At runtime, two rich text editors were used in the same harness under two different sections, one regular and one hidden till clicked. A custom plugin was implemented for rich text editor at the harness level. After upgrade, the custom plugin was not getting displayed in the hidden rich text editor. Investigation showed that if plugins were added to pega.ctx.customrich text editorPlugins, then the plugin manager discarded plugins from pega.u.d.customrich text editorPlugins. To resolve this, the rich text editor plugin manager has been modified to merge the plugins from pega.ctx.customrich text editorPlugins and pega.u.d.customrich text editorPlugins.

Double quotes escaped in entity mapping
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
A usecase where the BOTS created the triage cases from the emails and pushed it to the Workgroup had an intermittent problem where the screen would freeze and no actions could be performed. perform any action on the same. Investigation showed this occurred when the entity text contained double quotes which is caused JSON to break on the client side. This generated an exception during rendering, and other onload scripts failed on load and blocked the entire thread. To resolve this, the system will now avoid the JSON break by escaping double quotes in entity mapping.

Initialized entryName for light weight inventory instance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When running deployment on a new pipeline created for the next minor version, once the deployment process got to the point of showing aged updates, the “view aged updates” came back as blank screen. Viewing the logs showed the aged update elements come back but were missing the pyName associated with them. Investigation showed that the system did not have support for setting the mEntryName for LightweightInventoryInstance objects. This has been resolved by adding a junit to ensure that getEntryName() doesn't return as null and should be equal to pzInsKey.

Icon focus indication made more consistent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
The focus on some main icons across the header in Designer Studio was inconsistent when tabbing through the header. Some icons showed a dotted border, for others the icon opacity changed on focus, and others had no focus style at all. An update has been made to ensure consistent dotted outlines on all header and footer icons on focus. The dotted outlines have also been added for all tabs on the application landing page for Dev Studio for icons such as the delete/ gear on all Repeating Dynamic Layout rows.

Links to specifications persist appropriately
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When linking Rules to Specifications, check-ins of some unrelated rules deleted the link. Investigation showed the deletion happened in the pzHandleLinksPostCheckIn activity, and was caused by an empty parameter page name that caused pcInsKey to not have a value, so all links returned by "Obj-Browse" were later deleted. To resolve this, an update has been made to insure the "Pass current parameter page" option in step 2 of the Connect REST PostCheckIn activity is enabled so that the downstream activity pzHandleLinksPostCheckIn behaves as expected.
