Corrected SAML SSO error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After opening a case from the Pega-FCM portal or after logging in from SSO, closing the Pega window and opening it again resulted in the error "Unable to process the SAML WebSSO request : Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint %27pr_data_saml_requestor_PK%27. Cannot insert duplicate key in object". This was a missed use case that happens only under the old SAML configuration, and has been resolved by removing a when condition that checks for stepstatus fail for the pySAMLwebSSOAuthentication activity.

SAML data pages restored after passivation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
If login used SAML SSO, resuming the session after passivation resulted in missing or empty data pages when using an SAP integration with Pega Cloud. This was traced to a security change that modified the D_SAMLAssertionDataPage and D_SamlSsoLoginInfo data pages as readonly, causing them to not be passivated under these conditions. To resolve this, the data pages have been made editable so they will be restored as expected. This change also resolves any difficulty with SAML logoff activities in conjunction with SAP and Pega Cloud.

User lookup list correctly populated when using # tag
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
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.

Batching now enabled when using IH Summary shape in substrategies
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
Batching was not being enabled when using IH Summary shape in substrategies. This was traced to the IH_SUMMARY_CACHE field not automatically being passed to sub-strategies, and has been corrected.

Threads will be updated to maintain assembly context when using Static Assembler
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When running the Static Assembler utility from UI, the assembler process completed successfully but the PegaRULES.log was flooded with the FATAL exception "Usage error - next Executable not based on current". This error was generated from com.pega.pegarules.session.internal.mgmt.Executable constructor, and indicated an issue with the thread context being different from the assembly context. To resolve this, the system has been modified to update the context of thread to what is expected as assembly context.

Hazelcast will be used to determine node presence
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When calling logoff from the end user portal, sporadic PresenceStandardLifeCycleListener exceptions were seen during high load periods. This was traced to changes made in the Service Discovery behavior: when there is an issue with the node and heartbeats are missed, the node goes to Safe Mode. This caused the topology to change and trigger clearing off presence sessions, but the node still received service requests and this issue was seen. To resolve this, an updated has been made so the system will rely on the Hazelcast listener instead of service discovery to determine whether a node has left.

Report name in tab uses localization
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After creating a field value with field name as pyCaption to localize the report definition name, the title in the report definition tab was not translated. This was traced to Step 1 of the activity displayReport using an old localization function, and has been resolved by changing the localization of document title to use pyCaption.

Corrected error when persisting temporary work object
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When persisting a temporary work object using the Persist case shape, the internal assignment handle was not updated to include the work object's ID. Subsequent attempts to access the internal assignment (such as the "Edit" button on the Review Harness) resulted in errors. Investigation showed that when a temporary case was persisted, pyInternalAssignmentHandle was not getting recalculated after pzInsKey was updated. To resolve this, the configuration on the edit button has been modified to use .pxFlow(pzInternalCaseFlow).pxAssignmentKey which is what pyInternalAssignmentHandle declare expression was also returning.
