UUID added to iOS direct photo upload to differentiate filename
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When "Content Storage" with the option "Store in repository" was enabled on the "Integration" tab in the Application definition, it was not possible to add more that two attachments to a case with an iPhone when directly capturing a photo through the camera app instead of uploading the photo as an attachment using the gallery. When using the default "Store in Pega database", the additional photos could be uploaded directly from an iOS camera without any errors. Investigation showed that when "Store in repository" was enabled, a file name conflict check was done in the repository. Because the iOS camera app saves/uploads every image as "image.jpg", this caused the error when checking for a filename conflict in the repository. This has been resolved by adding code to append a UUID to the attachname when the device is mobile and browser is Apple Safari.

Custom header character encoding for Subject added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
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.

PDF margins made available as parameters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
After update, margins were different in exported PDFs. This was due to upgraded jar files: PD4ML v3 used setPageInsets(new Insets(top, left, bottom, right)) , but the v4 jar uses setPageMargins(new PageMargins(left, top, right, bottom)) . Because the order of values (20, 10, 10, 10) were not changed this produced a different result. To resolve this, PD4ML margins are now available to be set as parameters: Param.pyMarginLeft, default value 20 Param.pyMarginTop, default value 10 Param.pyMarginRight, default value 10 Param.pyMarginBottom, default value 10 When standard activities like HTMLToPDF / pyViewAsPDF / pyAttachAsPDF are used, add a Property-Set step before calling the activity to add the necessary margin parameters. When CreatePDF smart shape is used, set the parameters via the connector of the CreatePDF.

Updated check for portal name with search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
After update, using search from a Cosmos portal landing page launched the results in a new tab, and the logoff menu did not show which portal was being used. This has been resolved by updating the 'when' rule to check if pxThread.pxPortal contains the portal name rather that testing for equality.

Check added to prevent duplicate approval by single agent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using a cascading Approvals process supported both by a web access button or by responding via email, a single agent could use both methods and advance a case an additional step as if they were the next approval level. This was due to the system only checking the pzInsKey when processing the approval while the assignment key will be the same for the cascading approvals assignments. This has been resolved by introducing a datetime check to validate if the email approval assignment creation datetime and the one in the database have same value; if yes the approval process will proceed and if not it will exit.

Updated AttachmentPreview control for Account Manager Access Group
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using the Account Manager Access group as the default and only access group on a profile, attempting to render a PDF on the click of a link did not work as expected. The render-on-click worked as expected when logged in as the Author and the application was switched to Account Manager. This has been resolved by registering the activity pzAppStorageOkToAttachFile in the pzAttachmentPreview control.

Enhancements added for external Kafka Stream Service
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
To ensure data privacy when using multi-tenant Stream Service hosted on a single Kafka cluster, access will be authorized based on ACLs when a tenant sends direct requests to Kafka. In addition, all Kafka resources (topics and consumer groups) are now able to contain a prefix naming convention which can be used for tenants. This is handled through using a <env name="services/stream/name/pattern" value="{tenant.name}-{environment}-{stream.name}"/> prconfig setting to set the stream name pattern. For example, if the tenant.name is resolved into "companyname", environment into "prod1", and the stream dataset name is pyFTSIncrementalIndexer, then the Topic name created on the external Kafka will be companyname-prod1-pyFTSIncrementalIndexer.
