Corrected SAML SSO error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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 enhancements added with OperatorContext availability fix
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
The activity pyEstablishOperatorContext availability was incorrectly marked as final. This has been fixed and is "Available, Extension". In addition, many other enhancements have been added towards the goal of no-code configuration of SAML SSO authentication. SAML SSO is the most widely used authentication in production, but has historically required complex custom code. Please see the release notes for more information about Single Page UI Configuration and Adaptive Design for Authentication Run-time.

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.

Empty hidden elements stripped when AAR proxy in use
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
When using IIS WebServer and AAR proxy configuration with high security settings, submitting a form through Microsoft Internet Explorer with hidden input fields that did not have a name attribute resulted in a blank parameter name and value being added. This formed an invalid request that returned a HTTP 200 with no error message. Because Microsoft Internet Explorer does not ignore elements which have empty names, the code has been updated to remove name attributes on pycustomerrorsection hidden elements.

Summary report count fixed when using filter prompt
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
The summary data count was not getting updated in a report unless the "Prompt for filter changes before displaying report" option on Report Viewer tab (Actions -> Refresh) was unchecked. This was an error in the refresh code related to the display prompt filter check and has been corrected.

User lookup list correctly populated when using # tag
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.

Updated expression handling when not using client side validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.
