Attachment drag drop searches only current Ajax context

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

When the Interaction for customer service was open and more than 1 task from the sidebar was open, the drag and drop zone was missing on any subsequent Task/Cases past the first. In an Ajax container scenario, getElementByID js was searching in all the containers because they were present in DOM, and it was losing context. To resolve this, the code has been updated to only search in the current context when using an Ajax container.

Double decompression of Attachment BLOBs corrected

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

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.

Improved accessibility around page landmarks

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

Accessibility testing revealed an issue with pages where the main landmark was contained in another landmark. This has been resolved by removing the main role in the FlowActionHTML rule.

SR-D65513 · Issue 530182

URL encryption modified for ShowAllOperators

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

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.

Check added for Repositories before saving attachment

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

When creating or updating a case through email listener, the Link-Attachment defaulted the pxStorageType to 'WebStorage'. This caused an issue when using PegaS3, which needs pxStorageType 'Repository'. To resolve this, a check has been added to see if Repositories are enabled, and if they are the storageType will be set accordingly.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6

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.

Enhancement added to expose BrowserAttachmentTypeTable

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

By default, the inline view of PDF files appears with the thread name visible. An enhancement has been made to expose pzBrowserAttachmentTypeTable as a py rule: when the DT is overridden such that return is false for PDF, the inline view is not displayed but instead the PDF is downloaded when clicked.

SR-D23723 · Issue 503087

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When using a custom template for exporting to Excel, blank DateTime property column values defaulted to the current date. To resolve this, the pxGenerateExcelFile activity has been updated to ensure that an empty date will be exported as blank and that given dates will appear in the correct datetime format.

pxParseExcelFile activity will now parse multiple sheets

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When trying to use the activity pxParseExcelFile on an Excel file containing three sheets where each sheet had a different pagelist, the properties mentioned in sheet 1 were populated on upload but the remaining sheets only showed the error message "Could not get clipboard property for reference Work Queues.". This was caused by an error in Row index handling for the additional sheets, and has been resolved by updating the logic to populate the data in the clipboard. Additional issues for this issue in 8.4 to fix issues like formulae not getting evaluated and $ not parsed: 501592, 501383

SR-D29114 · Issue 499930

Added handling for bulleted text insert triggering audit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When a bulleted text (copied from an email or rich text ) was used in the text area property, the audit considered it as a change even when there was no change. This was tracked to the field value 'pyHistoryMemo • ChangeTrack_Add' in @baseclass which is being used to get the localized value for audit memo: the field value accepts only 2 parameters, but the inserted text area input contained the '\t' that is used for parameter translation. To resolve this, the system will call the addMemoForSecurityChangeTracking utility method to replace all \t's present in both the Current Value and Previous value with 'empty' such that no '\t' characters are available in either of the string parameters.
