Application wizard security updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A user having PegaRULES:User1 role only was able to run the Create Application wizard until an authorization block was reached, yet some rules were created. No operator records were created as part of this process. This was traced to code left in place after the creation of pxAppConfig and pzAppConfig portals, and has been resolved. The New Application wizard UI will display a message to a user when they lack access to build a new application, and an error will be displayed for any attempt to create a new application directly via pzCreateNewApplication to address a scenario where a user might be trying to call the activity without the front end.

Adjusted validation of literal value of a parameter
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When mapping a parameterized when rule to the proposition filter, parameters passed from the proposition filter page were not getting flown to the when rule. This was caused by special character validation for a literal value of a parameter which necessitated putting the parameter value within quotes and which resulted in a parameter value mismatch at run time. To support this use, this validation has been disabled as parameter values would not get included within quotes. This change does not have any impact on when rule or proposition filter rules java generation.

OpenRule logic updated for GetRuleInfo
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
The exception "InsufficientPrivileges:RuleExecutionDenied RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS PZGETRULEINFO" was thrown for some access groups when attempting to view a section from the end-user perspective on the Opportunity screen. Investigation showed this happened when a section had a table in which "Optimize code" was unchecked. If "Optimize code" was checked, then the exception was not thrown. This was traced to recent security changes in pzGetRuleInfo which affected the BAC registration process, and has been resolved by updating the way the openRule action registration logic invokes the activity.

Jsoniter parser upgraded
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, the pxTextinput property Prompt List was being converted into decimal upon clicking finish assignment. This was traced to the jsoniter parser, and has been resolved by upgrading the parser in the jsoniter library.

Corrected mobile data transform format handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
An intermittent issue was seen in the mobile app where data was not propagated properly because a Data Transform failed. The error "Failed to run data transform fs_work_task_plannedtask_settaskdetailsfromparent TypeError: sourceProperty.getValue is not a function" was generated. This was traced to a difference in the generated data transform format where a success scenario considered “Problem” as a page, whereas a failure case considered the “Problem” as a property and the getValue() operation failed. This has been resolved.

Handling added for overriding questions rules
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After overriding questions rules and then upgrading/validating Question Groups, questions were not shown. It was necessary to manually edit, save, and refresh for the questions to appear, affecting mainly Rule-PegaQ-QuestionGroup rules. This was traced to missing handling for this usecase. The commit was added in Revalidate and Save, which was committing different data because the upgraded data was not copied back to step page being used. Due to this, the commit in BulkValidateSave was overriding the changes done in the pzUpgradeSurveyInstance activity, and the survey upgrade was failing. To support this use, Page-Copy has been added to pzUpgradeSurveyInstance after the pzSaveSurveyInstance call step to copy the updated data to the step page which will later be committed by BulkValidateSave during revalidate and save.

Case link shows in Social messages for the old cases
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade from v7, the case link was not visible for the cases that were created in the old platform version. In Pega 7.1.7, metadata was stored in .pyPrivacyContextor while the later versions are using .pxContextType for Case type to show the related data. To resolve this, new properties have been implemented to hold the Case ID link

Activity updated for Mobile attachment access
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
Preview and download were not working for attachments stored in Pega Cloud Storage repository for mobile devices. Attempting to open an email attachment to preview or download resulted in a console error and the tracer showed the message 'Class pxLinkedRefTo does not exist'. This has been resolved by updating "pzpega_control_attachutil" to use the activity "GetAttachmentReference" for interactions with the attachments from any storage type.

Needed offline mobile resource added for upgraded channels
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
The error "Mobile login issue - "Resource missing. See client logs" appeared after upgrading the platform and updating the mobile channel interface. A logout button appeared, and clicking it generated a popup with "Cancel" and "Log off" buttons. Clicking Cancel returned the user to the default UI in the mobile screen. This was traced to py-avatar.css not being present, which is a resource needed for the offline application with the current platform, and this has now been added.

Check for mobile added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
While performing external assignment in the Designer Studio, the console error "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'isMultiWebViewOfflinePegaMobileClient' of undefined" was generated. Investigation showed that this was caused by the pega_desktop_api checking pega.mobile.isMultiWebViewOfflinePegaMobileClient, which was undefined while not working on mobile. To resolve this, a check for mobile has been added.
