Oauth tokens obtained on login timeout
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
When the client idle time expires, the user must perform a login in order to get back into the application. If OAuth is being used for authentication there is no need to re-send the credentials to NetIQ if neither the refresh token nor access token are expired yet, but the hybrid client was repeating the ROPC flow and obtaining a new refresh token each time the user logged in after the client idle timeout expires. With this change, the tokens are obtained on login timeout. There will be a further update targeted for the next release to show the lock screen and not log the user out.

Null check added for step page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
After creating and adding new Access Roles and application 'Access When' to the privileges instead of Production level, during run time the error "runtime.IndeterminateConditionalException: Trying to evaluate Rule-Access-When conditions L:IsProdAccess when there is no page to evaluate them against" appeared for the specific privileges. This was traced to a missed use case where the system falls back to the step page if the page for evaluating the 'when' condition is null, which did not account for scenarios where the step page can be null. To resolve this, a null check has been added which will fetch the primary page if the step page for the access 'when' condition is null.

Improved disconnected requestor cleanup for FieldService
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
A large number of requestors from FieldService with the status as 'Disconnected' were accumulating and causing performance issues. This was traced to the requestors not getting passivated due to users not logging out and new requestors being created for the same users next time, and was caused by the value of the DSS Initialization/PersistRequestor being set as "OnTimeout". When the DSS prconfig/timeout/browser/default is not configured, the default browser requestor timeout is 60 minutes. In this scenario, requestors were not passivating as the requestor passivation timeout was set to the refresh token lifetime for mobile users, which was very large and overwrote the DSS value. This has been resolved by removing the code which set the passivation timeout to the OAuth2 refresh token lifetime.
