Corrected PRAuth URL handling for sessions on restarted nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
If a user session was in progress and the node restarted, attempting to refresh the session when the node came back up was not working. Launching a new browser session cleared the problem. A trace showed that the Authentication Selector screen was not loading because the PRAuth URL redirection was going into an infinite loop, and this has been corrected.

CPU time will be fetched from MBeanServer instead of the JRE application to provide consistency
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
The value of CPU time in the Enterprise health metrics was being given in nanoseconds instead of seconds after the IBM JRE version was upgraded by applying Websphere Application Server patches. The CPUTimer is a platform class which has logic specific to different JRE vendors; in order to provide consistent results regardless of which JRE is used, the system has been updated to always fetch the values from the MBeanServer.

CustomFilter clipboard page now retained after section submit
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
When a Report Definition was configured to display filters using a custom section, selecting the filter property value and submitting the section resulted in the CustomFilter clipboard page being deleted automatically. In order to prevent the clipboard page from being immediately cleaned up by the doUIAction activity, a step has been added to the pzCreateCustomFilterPage activity that will set the pyRetainPage property to "true".

RecordsEditor Section- Parameters for HideDelete and HideAdd held on clipboard for use
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
On initial load of a RecordsEditor section, the delete and add options were properly hidden from the user. After using any sort option on any column, the parameters were not persisted and the delete and add icons became visible. To resolve this, the implementation has been updated so that the pyHideDelete and pyHideAdd parameters will be read from myParamPage on the initial load and saved on a clipboard page for use.

Support added for hiding unwanted category reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
After upgrade, a customization used to hide unwanted out-of-the-box category reports was not working. This was due to the pyServiceLevelPerformance and pxSimulations category rules not being included as part of the pyOOTBVisibleInBrowser 'when' rule that is specified for Display in the report browser 'when' setting. These two category rules - pxSimulations and pyServiceLevelPerformance - have now been modified to reference the 'when' rule pyOOTBVisibleInBrowser so categories may be hidden as desired.

Corrected agent scheduling issue for different server time zone
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
When a server timezone and the agent schedule used different time zones, a server restart with cleared extract marker resulted in BIX agents no longer running automatically due to the next run showing as scheduled in the past. This was traced to the method used to compare start date time, and has been resolved.

Lower major ruleset versions will not be considered during design time validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
After circumstancing a rule by property and withdrawing the rule in higher version, the same rule was circumstanced by template. Later after major skimming, attempting to perform a save-as of the circumstanced template rule resulted in an error stating that the circumstanced property already existed. During design time, the system validated the rule with rules from all other ruleset versions. In this corner case where a property-based circumstanced rule was withdrawn and then skimming was performed, the error occurred because it was being saved in a different major ruleset instead of into the same major ruleset. In order to better handle this condition, the system will not consider rules from lower major versions during design time validation.

New MaxFileSize extension point added for pyMaxFileSizeViolation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
A severe guardrail warning was raised when saving the activity pyMaxFileSizeViolation into a ruleset. This was traced to the CheckForWarnings Activity of Rule-Obj-Activity which checks if any activity referenced is an internal activity. Activity pyMaxFileSizeViolation was calling the internal pzGetCMMaxFileSize activity, and the warning appeared because the py activity was overridden in the application ruleset. To resolve this and add an extension point, pzGetCMMaxFileSize has been modified to a new data transform called pxGetCMMaxFileSize, which is called in pyMaxFileSizeViolation.

Content type header removed from default inclusion in JWT token to support MS integration
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
In order to integrate Pega with Office365 to use the Outlook API to Send and Get messages, an access token is required as a part of Authentication process. For obtaining an access token from the Azure directory, the process is to follow the OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow which requires the generation of a JSON Web Token (JWT) with the required Header, Payload and Signature. However, because Pega adds the tag "cty": "application/json" by default, using the out-of-the-box 'Token Profile' rule to generate the JWT and pass the same in a REST call to Microsoft was resulting in a error response indicating that there was an unsupported token header. This has been resolved by removing the content type header in the JWT token.
