SR-D87188 · Issue 551349

Mentioned user in Pulse correctly converted to hyperlink

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

In the Interaction portal, mentioning a user in Pulse using @ was not converting the name to the user name with hyperlink for Email Interactions. @ mentions were working as as expected in Phone Interactions. This problem was introduced as part of using OWASP to sanitize HTML user input in Rich Text support, and was due to OWASP converting @ to an HTML entity. To resolve this, the @ will be excepted from HTML conversion.

Optional feature to improve pxETReport performance

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Poor performance was seen when using pxETReport. This was caused by the system loading the recent cases widget by looking up all the ET cases within last 30 days, opening each ET case to check if it is from the same pyFrom email address, and then if yes, opening its related service case. On a complex system, this was potentially a slow process. To improve performance, the "Related cases" feature can now be disabled through an overridable 'when' rule.

Performance improvements for opening cases with embedded images

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Opening cases containing email interactions was taking an excessive amount of time. This was traced to the use of embedded images, icons, etc, in the message body and signature, and was caused by the pyGetAttachmentsbyCID activity running multiple times due to discussion threads that were duplicated over and over. In some cases, more than 360 calls to the database were seen. This has been resolved by shifting some case opening processes to executing when the listener thread gets the mail, and storing the results in a .pynote property, and a URL will be used to get images instead of embedding them directly to the HTML. If preferred, this can be reverted to the previous behavior by changing the when rule (pyUseCachedHtmlForDisplay) to false.

Webchat bot interaction box cleared on submit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

After upgrade, when using Google Chrome responses to webchat bot questions were not getting cleared from the chat input window after the enter/send button was clicked. This has been resolved by changing the order of refresh section and set value and disabling submit on refresh when refreshing pzSubmitArea.

SR-D86837 · Issue 547992

Webchat interaction timeout updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Interaction timeout was not working as expected in Webchat channels. This was traced to the system looking for total interaction timeout instead of user inactive timeout, along with the Web chat interaction case clipboard page being stale. To resolve this, timestamp propagation has been updated for pxProcess in Work-Channel-Interaction.pxAcquireInteraction.

Removed redundant Microsoft Outlook email interaction chain

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

When opening an email interaction case, the email editor user interface area showed the complete email chain of the email for every new message that came in related to the case. This was traced to the difference in the selectors that various email clients use to construct a response to an email with email history in it, and has been resolved by updating the selectors for Microsoft Outlook in pyRichTextEmailHistorySelector so no conversation is repeated when using that client.

Entity Detection prefers first detected entity

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Entity detection shown in the "Training data" tab of the email channel did not match with the results of running the corresponding text analyzer rule. This occurred when a single piece of text was detected as multiple entity values, which led to the last entity detected being picked for case mapping because of the unclear scenario of duplicate entities. To resolve this, pxmapresponseentities has been updated to prefer the first detected entity.

INC-184243 · Issue 682331

Page data preserved for WebChat timeouts

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Attempting to change the font size in Webchatbot after the interaction time-out resulted in a DisplayError screen. This was traced to the page data not being available, and has been resolved by preserving workPage and newAssignPage for this use.

INC-184902 · Issue 669451

Corrected portal image display for authenticated request

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Email images for the user portal were not displayed in the browser but were showing correctly in the manager portal. The URL to the image was the same in both cases, however for the user portal the URL request was requiring authentication. This has been resolved by updating the API to use currentsessionURL.

INC-185255 · Issue 669439

More responsive attachment loading for interaction portal

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Attempting to view a large email attachment in the interaction portal was resulting in slow loading and page responsiveness issues. Investigation showed there were numerous unnecessary height calculations happening when checking the dom elements, and this has been resolved with an update which will use the property mapping js file to make the screen more responsive when highlighting.
