Double decompression of Attachment BLOBs corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Attachment streams were being double-decompressed on download. This was traced to the GetAttachmentReference activity in which the file was opened then performing a show-html of DisplayAttachment HTML. This internally called the DisplayAttachFile activity which attempted to open the file again, resulting in a double de-compression of the attachment BLOB. This has been corrected.

URL encryption modified for ShowAllOperators
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
In the control ShowAllOperators the call to pzEncryptURLActionString was introduced to encrypt URLs to avoid hijacking. The content of the URL relied on the pxRequestor.pxWorkGroup property which was resolved using pega:reference tags. This approach worked in versions below 8.x, but in higher versions the tags were not resolved at runtime and results were not displayed. To resolve this, the requestorWorkGroup will be treated as string and passed as parameter instead of using pega:reference tags.

Updated DisplayAttachment to handle SIngleClick download from Case Worker portal
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
On using the script "pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick" in the Worker portal to download attachments displayed within a screen flow, the entire application was hanging and no action was invoked even on clicking the Continue or Finish buttons of the screen flow. Whenever an attachment is downloaded using the script function pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick() , an iframe is used and changetracker is called to communicate data between different iframes. However, the case worker portal is a single thread model while the manager and admin portals are multi threaded, which resulted in changetracker freezing on the worker portal. To resolve this, the DisplayAttachment HTML rule has been updated to build the necessary changeTrackerMap for the worker portal.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Attempting to use the out-of-the-box “Attachments control” which was configured at design time to use a custom category where both the custom category and the section class were in the same work class resulted in the attachment category dropdown defaulting to “File” instead of the custom category. Investigation showed that the custom attachment category name configured on the control was missing in one of the pre-processing activities sequence. To resolve this, the activity Work-.pzInitAttachContent and the initAttachmentPage activity have been updated to pass the custom attachment category parameter.

Handling added for null requiredskillcount on assignment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

Corrected approval step task message
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
When a case progressed to the approval step, the task name did not properly appear as part of the "Please approve or reject this" message. In another scenario, a portal which supported locale switching was not translating "Please approve or reject this" when the locale was switched, but instead displayed the message in the original language. Investigation traced this to the pzInstructionsForApproval data transform storing the localized field value, causing it to persist inappropriately. This has been resolved.

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
When using the AddAttachmentFromEmail activity with S3 repositories, performing an obj-save on the data-workattach-file page executes a deferred save while also saving the file into the repository. if the data was inserted into S3 successfully but encountered an issue when saving the related data-work-attach-file page, the system was trying to call the save operation again. This tried to insert the duplicate attachment again to S3, causing an error on that side of the process. To resolve this, the duplicate Obj-Save functionality in AddAttachmentFromMail Activity has been removed.
