Corrected runtime name length check for custom fields to resolve logged error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The error "Notification_MobilePush.Action ERROR - Can't parse JSON string to map" was being frequently logged. Investigation showed that in the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class, setting @String.length(customFields)>0 where customFields was a local value caused the runtime length check on customFields to fail. To resolve this, the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class has been modified from using @String.length(customFields)>0 to use @String.length(Local.customFields)>0.

Mobile channel upgrade wizard correctly initiated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, the offline mobile app was not loading the correct portal. This was traced to missing properties needed to launch the upgrade wizard for channels upgrading from a previous release to v8.5, and has been resolved by setting those properties in upgrade activities.

Unchecked Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails report definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade from Pega 7.4. to Pega 8.4, the use of a custom class 'XX-Data-OperatorLoginDetails' which pattern-inherits from Data-Admin-Operator-ID was causing the error "Union not applied because properties [pyImageFileName, pyEmailAddress, pyUseLocale, pyDefaultTimeZone] are not optimized in Data-OperatorLoginDetails”. This happened when the case manager portal was launched and the report definition pyFeedUserDetails (introduced in newer releases) was running by default, and was due to the presence of a few unoptimized properties when the report definition had "Report on Descendant classes" - include all descendant classes, checked by default. To resolve this, the checkbox to Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails is now set as unchecked by default.

Null check added for pzinskey in CSLoadSelectedArticle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
In step 5 of CSLoadSelectedArticle, there is a call to pzGetAssociatedTags. Step 1 of pzGetAssociatedTags is an Obj-Browse with MaxRecords set to 100000000, and there is logic to retrieve records where pxLinkedRefFrom = Primary.pzInsKey. If Primary.pzInsKey is null, then the Obj-Browse will fetch all of the records. In order to prevent an unnecessary flood of results, a when condition has been added in the CSLoadSelectedArticle rule to check pzInskey so that when the context is empty the system will not call the pzGetAssociatedTags and return the entire record set.

Multiple Pulse attachments deleted correctly from datapage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
If a Pulse post had only one attachment, removing the post using the Delete option correctly deleted the attachment from Link-attachment and Data-WorkAttach-File. However, if more than one attachment was present, the attachments were removed from view in the UI but were not deleted as expected from the datapage D_AttachmentList. This caused the pr_data_file table to grow very large. Investigation traced the issue to a 'when' condition in the PegaSocial-Message-ValidateDelete activity that was incorrectly being set to true due to a null value and causing the system to skip the deletefile step. This has been resolved by updating the logic to correctly handle removing multiple attachments on delete of a post.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Documentation updates have been made to provide instructions on configuring property encrypt policies for embedded properties. This includes information on creating two policies, on the class where the property is referred/used and on the final property level, so these properties can be smoothly encrypted/decrypted at all the places in the UI.

Documentation updated for using Custom Stored Procedure after upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Documentation has been updated to reflect that when upgrading an environment to Pega 8.3+, the following two prconfig/DSS settings should be removed. This is the preferred approach to use the new ID generation mechanism. Additionally, if a database sequence was previously used to generate IDs, pc_data_uniqueid should be added or updated to make sure each case type has a row defined, and that the pyLastReservedID matches the maximum of the relative database sequence value plus 1. env name="pega/sequenceid/useOldOOTBIDGenerator" value="true" or DSS: prconfig/pega/sequenceid/useoldootbidgenerator/default env name="database/databases/customUniqueIDproc" value="sppc_data_uniqueid_custom" or DSS: prconfig/database/databases/customuniqueidproc/default To keep using the old custom stored procedure, the following settings should be given either through prconfig or DSS setting (prefixed with "prconfig/"). The sppc_data_uniqueid_custom can be replaced with a custom procedure name with the same signature as the standard stored procedure. env name="pega/sequenceid/useOldOOTBIDGenerator" value="true" env name="database/databases/customUniqueIDproc" value="sppc_data_uniqueid_custom"
