Updated logging for "Obfuscated URL tampering" errors
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
The error "pegarules.util.URLObfuscation) ERROR - Obfuscated URL tampering - unable to derive cleartext data" was being logged when the "cookie/HttpOnly" parameter was set. This was traced to the unobfuscating of data failing at the server end, and the loggers have been updated to print requestor data for better diagnostics.

Fixed improper ID carryover after reset all loggers
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When a user reset the logs, the same user ID was then being populated in the log entries of master agent and requestor lock exceptions from that point on even when the exceptions were from other users. This was due to the username not being cleared correctly after the reset all loggers operation is done, and to fix this, the reset all loggers functionality has been changed such that no data from main thread is copied onto the child thread(the dispatcher thread).

Fixed Multiselect grid drag and drop
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When using MultiSelectList Control, if a value was selected and then 'submit' was used to populate the Grid's data, dragging and dropping the Grid's row to some other workbasket did not work. This happened because the clipboard calls the remove property with a symbolic delete when doing a drag and drop. While processing this delete, if the mode of property was unknown the system was unable to look up the property definition in the dictionary, and an exception occurred. To fix this, handling has been added to lookup the definition of the property if it is unknown before removing it.

Exported Excel from Decision Table wraps correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
After upgrade, entries were displayed in a single line on exporting a decision table to Excel despite WrapText cell formatting being set. This was traced to the WrapText cell formatting set under the UpdateGridCells() function being overridden inside an addDataFormat() function callas part of DecisionTableWorkBookConverter.java. This has been resolved by adding the new function "setWorkAreaCellStyles" and calling it after generateWorkbook() function call of super class (AbstractWorkBookConverter.java).

Filter by Rule Resolution enabled for GetPegaExpressFieldsByType
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
After creating a Text Input property of type none in a ruleset version [For ex: Myruleset:01-01-01] and then saving this property in a higher ruleset [Myruleset:01-01-02] and changing the type to promptlist, the same property appeared twice in Eligibility Builder [Content -> Offers -> Eligibility Builder]. This has been resolved by enabling the "filter by rule resolution" option in the Rule-Obj-Property.pzGetPegaExpressFieldsByType report definition to make sure rules are fetched from the latest ruleset version only.

Report definition performance improvement
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
Performance issues were seen with the pzOperatorsByWorkGroup report definition. This was traced to the report definition is adding an UPPER function for edit filter properties which caused it to take more time to run when combined with an ignore case check in the filters of the Report Definition. This has been corrected.

Unit Test Ruleset rules do not count against Guardrails
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
Although the documentation indicates that rules in a Unit Testing ruleset should not count against the guardrail score or unit test coverage, when branching a unit test ruleset, the branch did not carry the same unit test flag value as the source ruleset and the rulesets were counted as a result. This has been resolved with an update to ignore testrulesets in guardrail and pegaunit calculations.
