OrgChartWorkGroup update issue resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
The instances of Index-PegaFS-Data-OrgChartWorkGroup table were corrupted after adding a new department via the landing page. This was traced to the missed scenario of a Page-Copy with declare index present in it, and has been resolved.

Null check added to resolve addmapcasetomap error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Using a createcase flow shape to create child cases by looping on a page list on the parent case resulted in pzaddmapcasetomap throwing an exception related to the activity pzLoadCaseHierarchyWrapper in step 5. This was traced to a page being removed after the list of pages was received in findPageByHandle, and has been resolved by adding a null check.

AttachmentContent supports S3 storage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Using a D_AttachmentContent data page to display the contents of an attachment by way of the pyGetAttachmentContent activity worked when using the Pega database for storage, but generated an error stating CMIS access was disabled after switching to S3 storage. This was traced to restrictions on Link-Attachment pages in Step 2, Line 64 of pyGetAttachmentContent to enable attachment stream retrieval from web storage and repositories by D_AttachmentContent, which has now been removed. In addition, pyGetAttachmentContent has been updated to behave the same whether a Link-Attachment page or Data-WorkAttach page is provided when populateAttachStream is set to false, and the rule documentation (description/usage) has been updated accordingly.

Logic trimmed for better Listener performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
After multiple email listeners with Data indexing were enabled, the FTSIndexer queue was filling with Email Listener instances. Investigation showed that although Listener Management has logic for updating the last access time of all listeners by using APIs, the Email Listener was explicitly opening the email listener rule to update the last access time every time it was run. This has been corrected.

Check added for Repositories before saving attachment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
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.

Handling added for reactivating combined Passivation and AccessGroup timeout
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
Refreshing a passivated browser window in Dev Studio for an operator with a combined access group and passivation timeout was resulting in a blank screen after re-authenticating. InvalidParameterException and InvalidReferenceException messages were logged. Research showed this was caused by a missing pxPortal property on the pxThread page along with missing Application and Accessgroup pages. While refreshing the browser along with the top URL, there will be few requests with tab threads calling activities such as deletedocumentpg and SetProcessWindowName because there was an unload. Because these requests reached the server before re-authentication, the threads proceeded to the activation flow, causing properties such as pxPortal, Application, and Accessgroup pages to be removed from the thread page and requestor page according to the condition that the requestor was not yet authenticated. To resolve this, the logic in session.internal.authorization.context.BasicApplicationContextImmutableImpl#applyApplicationProperties has been updated to skip removing application page properties from the thread page in this combined Passivation and AccessGroup timeout scenario.

Java Bean import updated to handling differences in Java 7 and Java 8
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The behavior of the java bean Introspector class is inconsistent across different versions of the JDK when detecting indexed properties built off of java.util.List objects, causing Java Bean import to generate differently in Java 7 and Java 8. This has been resolved by updating PRIndexedPropertyDescriptor to better handle this JDK difference by resolving indexed read and write methods manually using simple reflection.

Java object type removed from pyStream to resolve GetFile class error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
It was not possible to perform Property-Set on pyStream(java.io.InputStream) to assign it with another object of type(returned by pxGetFile Rule-Utility-Function). This was caused by a strongly typed java.io.stream in the pyStream property creating conflict at runtime with S3WrapperInputStream from the D_GetNewFile call, and has been fixed by removing the java object type from pyStream.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.
