Check added for parent case dependency if deferred-save is used
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
After updating the status of a parent case to "Pending-ChildCaseDependency", the wait shape for the child case that should have been triggered by the status did not work and the child case remained on hold. This was a missed use case for the pxCheckFlowDependencies activity where defer-save operations on Index-AssignDeps class was not considered, and may happen when the Queue Processor is evaluating the dependencies while instances to Index-AssignDeps are not committed yet. To resolve this, code has been added to check the entry of the parent case dependency in deferred-save if its not present in Index-AssignmentDeps table.

Handling added BIX extraction failure when called from custom activity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
After update, BIX extraction was failing but email from the schedulers indicated success. Investigation showed that when extract was called from a custom activity by calling pxExtractDataWithArgs, the stepStatusFail 'when' rule in the custom activity was not capturing all the exceptions specific to database extracts. This has been resolved by adding the necessary handling.

UI and code changes to support Client Assertion in Open ID Connect
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
In order to support private_key_jwt, an enhancement has been added which will pass the “Client ID” and “Client assertion” (in the form of a signed JWT) as part of the authorization code grant flow for an IDP-initiated SSO. The Authorization Server will then authenticate Pega (the client) to verify the signature and payload of assertion by retrieving the public key via Pega’s JWKS endpoint.

UUID added to iOS direct photo upload to differentiate filename
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
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 8.7.2
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 8.7.2
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.
