Auto populate properties will fetch data from descendant classes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
A page list property set to be populated by the "Copy data from a data page" or "Refer to a data page" option had a blank property value. The warning "Copy from declare page of incompatible class: Code-Pega-List" appeared. Investigation showed that the failure was caused by the embedded class of the auto-populate being different from the data page's dynamic class. This was due to the data in the data page being sourced from Report Definition; that fetches data from its descendant classes, causing the class of the data page to be dependent on the report definition configuration. To resolve this, the system has been updated so that Auto Populate properties will allow fetching data from descendant classes.

Context retained during nested automation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Issues were seen with context being passed correctly with automation. When a Data Page that was used to abstract the call to a REST API used a Data Transform which in turn used a Data Page which also used a call to a REST API to retrieve an OAuth Token, an error appeared. The same worked when a URL was provided on the Connect REST. When a service case was launched but a Flow Action wasn't submitted, then another service case was added and submitted, the post-processing robotic automation activity used the run robotic automation activity from the previous service case instead of the current service case targeted for completion. This has been resolved by updating the webwb • pzpega_ui_doc_submit.js file to pass the correct MDIContext based on the event target of FA submission while invoking RDA automation.

Enhancements added for using AWS file repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Enhancements have been added to improve the use of AWS file storage: Logging for AWS SDK connection metrics can be activated on a per-repository basis, either through the ruleform or through the DSS storage/class/:/enableMetrics. INFO logging can be enabled on PegaAWSSDKMetricReporter to periodically output averages of recorded metrics for all registered S3 repositories with metric collection enabled, or INFO logging can be enabled on PegaAWSRequestMetricCollector to output recorded metrics on every client call for all registered S3 repositories with metric collection enabled. The interval at which PegaAWSSDKMetricReporter logs metrics at can be configured with the DASS storage/AWSSDK/metricReportingInterval. This DASS is a system-wide setting, and not a per-repository setting. The default reporting interval is 90 seconds, and metric collection is disabled on all repositories by default.

File Listener null-pointer exception resolved with context check
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
A service file rule associated with a file listener was encountering a Null Pointer Exception. Investigation showed that the system successfully processed the first record in the service file, then it encountered the null-pointer exception indicating that the listener state was null. This was traced to functionality introduced in an earlier version to ensure File Listeners are succinctly shut down when a Cloud Node is moved to queiscing. As part of that work, the Rule-Service-File was linked to ListenerStateManager and did not work in a scenario where the rule could be executed outside of that context. This has been resolved by adding a check for context before directing the activity.

CMIS Update Request corrected for single Value List property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
After upgrade, following the process of searching Documents by connecting to CMIS and getting the results, then selecting the document, editing it, and resubmitting the document to the CMIS repository by clicking on the update button worked when passing a multi row of values to the Value list property but failed when passing a single row of value to the Value List property. An error was generated with the message "pega.pegarules.pub.services.InboundMappingException: Failed to process CMIS service 'updateProperties' ". In 7.2, updateProperties CMIS functionality uses the Apache API opencmis.commons.spi.ObjectService#updateProperties() whereas in 8.3 it is refactored to use the API opencmis.client.api.CmisObject#updateProperties() and this API allows multi-valued property to be updated with multiple values only. To resolve this, the CMIS connector has been modified to update the properties implementation such that it will pass-on the property update value to Apache OpenCMIS API as either List or Scalar based on the property definition (whether Property is configured as multi-valued or not).

Resolved null pointer on Reference Helper startup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
An issue with the system failing to start and generating a NullPointerException on RUFReferenceHelper.java has been resolved by modifying some Rule-Utility-Function code to better handle threads that are not completely initiaized yet but still running rules.

Data table validation message placement updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
An issue with validation errors unexpectedly appearing on primary key columns instead of on an added decimal data type column was traced to the system using a temporary page to update the record: if there was an error, all of the messages were copied to the temporary page and put on the first key of the data type. To resolve this, the system will populate the messages on individual properties on the main page and the rest of the messages will be put on the first key of the data type.

Resolved upgrade SqlSyntaxErrorException
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
When trying to perform an in-place update, the error "SqlSyntaxErrorException" appeared. Investigation showed that DDL statements for Adding 'pzInsKey' as PrimaryKey for Tables pc_work and pr_sys_locks were generated during the upgrade while pzInsKey was already the PrimaryKey in corresponding tables. This has been corrected.

Enhanced logging and error messages for JSONMappingUtils failing to map a number value
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Some integer properties were not mapped from JSON, such as itemID. Investigation showed that because the maximum range of a signed integer is 2,147,483,647, only those itemIDs less than or equal to that were processed during the initial mapping of the incoming JSON data. Others were bypassed to allow for the remaining properties to map to the clipboard. As this mapping incident is rare, no code changes will be made to address it. Instead, if this condition is seen Pega recommends changing the property mode manually to text to prevent arithmetic being done on itemIDs or other integers. In order to better support administrators and developers, updates have been made to the warn/error log messages in the event of JSONMappingUtils failing to map a number value so that missing data mapping will be clearly indicated.

Support expanded for postgres versions and logging improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
While trying to import data into the Data Type Tables using a CSV file and selecting the 'Add or Update' option, an error appeared and the import failed. Using 'Add or Delete' worked as expected. This was traced to the import of data failing for postgres version 10.x because UseMerge for postgres did not use merge if the version of Postgres was not 9. Support has now been added for versions of Postgres higher than 9 in SQLGeneratorPostgres.useMerge(), and logging has been enhanced to improve triaging issues such as this.
