Handling added for response command beginning with "call"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
There was an issue if a response command in a web chatbot channel started with the word "call". This was due to the storage and handling of the commands in the decision table. There was a workaround of avoiding the use of "call" to start a command, but the issue has been resolved by adding quotes around the decision table result to support this response command structure.

Resolved exception from isArchived
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After update, the message "ERROR - Could not retrieve the database time" was seen. This was traced to the interactions of the isArchived API with a version of Oracle, and has been resolved by adding code to skip the isArchived() API call if pzIsPegaCloud is set to false.

Added handling for reloading portal while ChatBot is active
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
An issue was seen with UI rendering when a customer tried to reload the portal where the chatbot is deployed.

Added handling for legacy HTML formatting in Email Manager Bot
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When implementing Email Manager Bot features, pyBody fields were removing the additional spaces and causing the NLP model to not extract the correct data. Investigation showed HTML formatting from older version of Microsoft Outlook created nbsp; instead of space. This has been resolved by ensuring nbsp is replaced with spaces before calling JSoup clean.

Training data correctly added to model
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Negative training data was not getting added to the entity model. This was traced to logic used to remove consecutive spaces which was incorrectly removing new lines and leading to entity detection of entities such as address line. This logic has now been removed.

Disconnect button availability extended
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
A case was not refreshing when the disconnect button was selected while using the standard section for authorization grant type authentication. This was traced to a query executed to find a div with attribute pzInsHandle, but that attribute was not applicable in the user portal. To support this use, the query has been extended to be applicable for user portal (attribute data-ui-meta) and Dev Studio landing page.

Skip restored for browser request CSRF token
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Many SECU0008 alerts were seen in the production logs. This was the result of a CSRF token check on requests without pyActivity or pyStream, and has been resolved by restoring a conditional skip of the check as those other browser requests do not contain a CSRF token.

SSLContext created using protocol from REST connector rule form
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After upgrading to IBM websphere v9.0.5.6 or higher, API calls Like REST, Connect-HTTP etc were failing to connect to endpoints using TLSv1.2. Investigation showed that although the connector was configured to send TLSv1.2, the ClientHello handshake was triggered for TLSv1.3. Because the SSLContext was created with highest version supported by protocol in the WAS container, this has been resolved by modifying the code to create SSLContext based on the the protocol selected in the REST connector rule form. Additionally, please note that the Connect-HTTP connector has been deprecated and the Connect-REST capabilities in the platform should be used instead.
