Case creation service activity unauthorized response modified
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When unauthorized users accessed the URL for creating a case, a blank screen appeared instead of the user being routed to a login screen. This was due to the system returning an HTTP 400 error instead of HTTP 401 response, and was traced to the introduction of an anonymous user type in the authentication activity (Authentication service in the service package). Case creation REST service uses pzCreateCase activity to create the cases, but before introducing the anonymous user type it was exiting from the authentication activity and did not call pzCreateCase. This was traced to the error handling relying on a field value to be in English when instead the site had localized the value, causing a mismatch which did not generate the necessary failed status. To avoid this, the system will now use the new pxStatusFlowSecurity process engine status instead of relying on a text match to determine this error.

PegaEmailClient Debug level EmailAccount password issue resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
The SendEmailNotification activity was failing to send email when DEBUG log level was enabled for the com.pega.platform.integrationengine.client.email.PegaEmailClient class. This was traced to the removal of the pyPassword property from the copied object which was done for security reasons, but which is this case led to failed authentication. This has been resolved.

Content type added to Httpclientutils
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
The XML Response received from Connect HTTP Service was being converted to Base64 format automatically. This was traced to there not being a content type in the response header from the service, causing the content to be treated as binary and encoded before being mapped to the clipboard. To correct this, content type has been added to Httpclientutils.

Corrected method IF use with shortcut function
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
After upgrade, method IF was not working as expected when used in an expression like "@if(.totalorders_120days>0,(.remakeorders_120days/.totalorders_120days)<0.3,false)". This was caused by a missed use case for the combination of an exception-generating function in combination with a shortcut function (i.e. ternary, and, or), and has been resolved.

Fallover stategy added to chat routing to keep event processor running
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Chats were becoming stuck in the queue and end users were not able to connect with the customer service representative. An excessive number of queued items were observed in a Queue Processor named "EventProcessor". This was traced to the setting "Browse from the offset" having been removed because of a retention policy. This resulted in "Browse from the end of the stream" being used instead even though browse should start from the earliest known offset. To resolve this, Stream Producer will be cached based on topic, and Stream consumer will fall over to an earliest strategy in case the requested offset isn't found so the event queue will be handled in a timely manner.

Support added for auto restart of system paused nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
After the system paused a run, nodes had to be manually restarted by hand. Investigation showed that a node had fallen from the Hazelcast cluster due to an instability and that there was no support for an auto-restart under this condition. This has been resolved by adding a pulse task to resume runs stuck in system pause.

While running the ADMSnapshot Agent, the exception "internal.mgmt.Executable) ERROR com.pega.decision.adm.client.ADMException: Failed to complete ADM Data Mart snapshot" was seen. This was traced to an issue with the rounding of performance statistics when using Oracle, and has been resolved.

Corrected issue with strategy framework testing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Issues were seen in creating a dataflow to test the strategy framework shipped with the Pega Marketing product. It was not possible to use a data transform to test this strategy because it is in the shipped PegaMKTEngine ruleset. Investigation showed the value of appliedToClass was retrieved from "pyRunOnDataFlowClassName" instead of from the running strategy, and this has been resolved.

Unit testing validation relaxed for external input strategy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When trying to test a strategy, the testing transform had to exist in the same ruleset/version as the strategy or it would not resolve. Investigation showed that because the artifacts were in a different ruleset and version build on top of the application that the testing strategy belongs to, validation failed because it was using the platform based ruleset validation. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by relaxing the validation for external input strategy so it does not take into account the ruleset and version of it. This same change has been applied for referenced data transforms.
