Mentioned user in Pulse appears correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When loading user names while using the "@" functionality in a Pulse post, adding or tagging the operator/user in Pulse by entering each letter brought up the list, but when using copy/paste it was not possible to select the desired value from the user.Suggestions list of operators/users. If by chance the user name was selected from the suggested list, the operator ID was added instead of the full name. This has been resolved.

Resolved unneeded chat survey error logging
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After configuring a chat server to do a post chat survey, the post chat survey was correctly served but errors indicating "Cannot find PegaCA-Work-SurveyNPS.Thank you for your feedback. van type Rule-HTML-Paragraph" were logged. This was caused by the method used by the system to distinguish between text and paragraph questions in pyProcessNextStep, and has been resolved by adding additional checks for whether paragraph exists before opening it.

Third-party links allowed to pass target attribute in anchor
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Attempting to connect to Docusign, a third party application, via Email in an interaction portal was not working, and the error "account.docusign.com refused to connect" appeared. This was caused by the HTML data being sanitized so the attribute 'target' was not allowed to pass and the application could not open in a new tab. To resolve this, an update has been made that will allow the target attribute for an anchor tag.

Oracle handling updated for upgrade DDL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
DDL generated for a Pega upgrade displayed the error "ALTER TABLE PC_ASSIGN_WORKBASKET DROP CONSTRAINT GETNEXTWORKINWORKGROUP" when trying to install. This was traced to a change made by Oracle for optimization, and has been resolved by updating the handling for primary key constraint and the corresponding index name.

EnableRedirects property added for REST connections
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When implementing a connector with the header “Location” which contains a redirect URI, a 303 response code was expected. Instead, a 400 or 404 error was generated. It was not possible for developers to process the code per their logic in Activity as Connect REST processed 303 responses automatically - i.e. there was no intercept points to implement the suggested approach. To resolve this, the new property "Rule-Connect-REST.pyEnableRedirects" has been added along with a checkbox for the property in "Rule-Connect-REST.pyService" in "Connection" section. Logic has been added in RESTConnector.java to take value of this property and set it on the HTTPClient being used, and a method has been added to HTTPClient interface and ComponentsHTTPClient to use the new value being passed. The default behavior is the same for the REST Connector, but a client can uncheck a checkbox on the REST Connector ruleform to stop the HTTP client from automatically following any compatible 3xx responses.

Updated SLA table clearance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After cases were resolved, SLA entries were not getting cleared from the SLA table. This caused the SLA table to have a huge number of Overall SLA and PendFlow details present for cases that were resolved or moved to the next state, which impacted case processing via SLA Agent. This was traced to SLA queue-items not being removed by delete-deferred as expected, and has been resolved by invalidating the deferred operations and scheduling item removal.

Optimizing helper class enhanced to handle external databases
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Running a BIX extract that included a manifest for a target database was resulting in a null pointer exception for the manifest extraction. Attempting to generate the DDL for the manifest table also failed. This was traced to an issue with the helper class using a hardcoded default database for forming the queries, causing it to ignore the database config/DADN/prconfig for the Oracle database and form a query using the PegaRules' database credentials. This only occurred when trying to do external database operations on a different database platform; Oracle PegaRules worked as expected with an Oracle external database and Postgres Pegarules worked with a Postgres external database, but mixing Postgres PegaRules and an Oracle external database would result in the null pointer exception. To resolve this, the helper class has been enhanced to work with external databases by passing the database name as a parameter so it will properly calculate the query based on the type of target. An error in the name of the class has also been corrected, and is now available as PerformanceHelper rather than the previous "PerformaneHelper".
