Content type header removed from default inclusion in JWT token to support MS integration
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
In order to integrate Pega with Office365 to use the Outlook API to Send and Get messages, an access token is required as a part of Authentication process. For obtaining an access token from the Azure directory, the process is to follow the OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow which requires the generation of a JSON Web Token (JWT) with the required Header, Payload and Signature. However, because Pega adds the tag "cty": "application/json" by default, using the out-of-the-box 'Token Profile' rule to generate the JWT and pass the same in a REST call to Microsoft was resulting in a error response indicating that there was an unsupported token header. This has been resolved by removing the content type header in the JWT token.

Check added for reference function in DB2 join
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
In DB2, when a sub-report column contained a function that was used for a join condition in the main report, an invalid filter property error was generated while saving. This was traced to the edit validate rule checking for the data type of both of the properties used in the join, and has been resolved by adding a check to see if the join operand is of function 'reference'; if so, the system will resolve the function, check for data type property, and set it.

Improvements made for the stability and reliability of the stream tier
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
Several enhancements and fixes have been made to improve the stability and reliability of the stream tier with a focus on rolling restart. Issue 410567: When a stream node shuts down, it takes up to a minute for all client nodes to recognize the event and failover to other nodes due to large default timeouts. Timeouts have now been reduced to allow nodes to failover much earlier. Issue 413375: When a stream node shuts down, other stream nodes are notified and attempt to discover the new cluster topology. Since the cluster is still in flux, this operation may take a long time blocking all producers until a new topology is determined. This procedure has been changed to be less heavy and make the discovery only if required. Issue 401326: Kafka (running as a separate process as part of the Stream services) generates log files, but does not use log rotation with a maximum amount of log files. This means that the log files will eventually fill up the disk, leading to failures of the service and PRPC instance running on the same disk. To resolve this, the system will now limit number of generated log files to prevent high disk usage by using the parameters of file size = 2 MB and a max nr of size = 10. Issue 410280: A large number of "Processing override for entityPath" entries were seen in the Kafka logs. This has been addressed by ensuring message.timestamp.difference.max.ms is set to equal to retention.ms. In addition, the system will properly compare the Kafka Configuration created for the entire topic and the configuration retrieved for Partitions so the configuration is not unnecessarily updated. Issue 414765: During stream node restart, decision hub nodes may block for 15-30 seconds when writing to a stream data under certain conditions. This can cause high response times for a small period. This has been addressed by updating stream dataset logic to handle stream tier restarts properly and not cause response time degradation. Issue 401093: HttpMessageDecoder was throwing an exception regarding “TooLongFrameException” causing a 502 on HTTP stream tier requests going over 8192. The default max header size used by stream data set REST service was 8KB. In this particular case, the HTTP header contains a lot of cookies and other meta-info and exceeds 8KB. To resolve this, the default max header size has been increased to 16KB. A new prconfig setting to control max header size has also been introduced.

DSS added to allow custom timeout for BIX query
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
The BIX query to retrieve the blob column was taking up to 60 seconds for large volume, causing timeouts. Previously, the extract defaulted to using repost pzSample which is internal/final and has a default timeout of 30 seconds. In order to avoid timeouts, the new DSS "BIX/selectQueryTimeout" has been added to allow setting a custom value. Further refinements will be made for multi-tenant environments in a future release.

Data type search adjusted to handle text query
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
After creating a data type and adding a class join and then delegating the data type to a user, the data type search bar in the configuration tab was not working. This was traced to the decision search filter using "=", which did not handle a text query. This has now been changed to use "Contains" to resolve this issue.

ProfileLink control updated to resolve opening issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
The profile was not opening when the Operator Profile link was clicked. This was traced to certain functions having been moved to javascript files that were not included by default in the ProfileLink control. To correct this, the control has been modified to include the needed javascript files and the appropriate references have been updated to match.
