Client secret made optional for JWT Bearer Grant type
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, trying to connect a REST API using OpenAM as the provider for OAuth and using JWT Bearer as Grant type was resulting in an error indicating the request was not reaching the destination. This was traced to the client secret being designated a mandatory field when it should be optional in this case as the required key store was already configured with a JWT token profile. To resolve this, an update has been made which will make the client secret optional when the authentication scheme is JWT Bearer. In addition, the blank value caused a null pointer error when the client secret was not passed. This has been handled with a check.

Security updated to allow Access group switching
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a member of two different access groups attempted to switch from one group to another, an "access denied" message occurred. This was traced to the use of BAC, and has been resolved by updating the pzProcessApplicationSwitch activity to use the pzEncryptURLActionString function to register the request.

Secure shared link generation added to scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a scheduled report with a link was sent in email, clicking the link displayed an access denied message. To support this use, logic has been added to pytaskoutputprocessor in the pega-scheduledtask-reporting and pega-scheduledtask classes that will create a secure encrypted URL using the PublicLinkURL function.

Non-template RDL time value handling updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
The Time value displayed on clipboard and data designer differed from the value shown on user work form when using a categorized repeating dynamic layer rendered in non-template mode with the Datetime control configured inside the RDL. This was traced to the Time string being considered as a date when using this configuration and calling the engine API, and has been resolved by ensuring this configuration will call the correct Time API instead so that the timeofday property value will be formatted correctly.

CalendarGadget updated to display events in Saudi locale
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using the pxCalendar section with the locale setting ar_SA, the calendar was correctly converted to a Saudi calendar but the events which were showing in the English version of the calendar were not showing up in in the Saudi Calendar. This was caused by the CalendarGadget page not populating properly due to the localized Hijri calendar failing a datetime check that was looking for a Gregorian calendar with time in GMT format, and has been resolved by updating the when rule "pzShouldDisplayEvent " to use the proper function for the localized calendar.

Removed incorrect role from accessible filter logic
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using JAWS, tabbing out from Close(X) and setting focus on the "filter by" section resulted in JAWS reading out "use arrows to move". This was not an available action, and has been resolved by removing role="listitem" from the RRFilters_logic.

Custom header character encoding for Subject added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Case correspondence that contained a Subject with accent characters such as "Invitation à être" was being rejected by MailJet on the basis of encoding issues on the "Thread-Topic" when using custom headers. The error "BAD HEADER SECTION, Non-encoded non-ASCII data (and not UTF-8)" was generated. This was traced to the Send Email Smart Shape handling when using custom headers, and has been resolved by encoding the Subject before appending it to the Thread-topic header while adding custom headers.

Bulk actions check in preserves declare expression legacy setting
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a declare expression was saved in legacy mode with "Whenever used" selected in change tracking, performing a bulk check-in of the rule caused the expression to default to the new forward chaining method. This did not occur when using a direct check-in. Investigation showed this was caused by the check-in page holding a legacy value before the step execution, and has been resolved by adding a pre-save activity before the validation activity that will restore the .pyIsLegacy value from .pyExpressionTypeSelector, if set.
