SAML SSO redirects to correct URL when application and authentication aliases match
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Whenever there was a match in the authentication service alias and the application alias, the application alias was replaced with empty after logoff instead of making the authentication service alias empty. For example, given an authentication service with the alias XYZ ("login with XYZ" alias option) and an application name XYZMyOps, the application alias was being changed from XYZMyOps to appMyOps after logoff. As a result, a blue screen error resulted when clicking on button "login with XYZ" again because it redirected to appMyOps, which didn't exist. This has been resolved by removing authservicealias and modifying AuthServiceAliasHelper.adjustPathIfAuthServiceAliasPresent() to change the method for calculating the pathinfo to string tokenizing

SAML data pages restored after passivation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
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 read-only, 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.

Email headers correctly mapped when using MSGraph
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
The value of "Send Date" was not correctly populated when using MSGraph instead of IMAP, causing the Email Listener to fail. Microsoft populates the "sendDateTime" field in the JSON with the value of the RFC 822 email header "Date:", but this value was not being passed to Java object of type "Message" as part of the query. To resolve this, ReceivedDateTime and SentDatetime have been added in the select filter of getMessagebymessageID.

SAML datapages cleared before new authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
If a previous user had not logged out or timed out when using SAML authentication, a second person using the same device/browser would end up in the first user's session after performing their own authentication. Investigation showed the second login D_SAMLAssertionDataPage was not getting refreshed with the current user login details; this has been resolved by explicitly deleting the SAML Datapages before processing a new login if the session has not timed out.

Support added for multi-operator SAML logins
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When a SAML user is logged in by Single Sign-On (SAML), the system processes the login to portal as a different operator if there was a function on the Attribute field under Operator identification in the SAML authentication service. In this scenario, using an expression for operator provisioning did not work because all SAML login sessions resolved to the same first operator due to parseAndEvaluateExpression() in ExpressionHelper.java ignoring new expression arguments if the expression page already existed. To support the use of multiple operator logins in this format, the system has been updated to clone a new expression page for every session and update it with the correct expression arguments.

Updated expression handling when not using client side validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade, a declare expression used to calculate the end date when creating a schedule case was not populating the result. This was traced to a missed use case for evaluating expressions when 'Enable client side validation' is unchecked, and has been resolved.

Support added for iFrame Mashup resize when using SPA
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After upgrade, issues were seen with an iFrame holding a Mashup not resizing as expected. This was traced to the use of an SPA portal inside mashup, and has been resolved by explicitly invoking the doharnessResize API to set proper height on iframe when using SPA.
