REST endoint check added to correct Bulk check-in error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
After integrating Agile Studio into a development instance application, trying to perform a Bulk check-in of the rules without selecting a task ID in the "Work item to associate" drop down list failed and generated an error in the logs. This was caused by an incorrect condition validation before making the REST call, and has been addressed by checking whether the REST endpoint is blank or not.

Maintenance function operator ID will not persist in the system
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
After a hotfix maintenance activity, an audit revealed that an extra operator created for the purpose called CloudMaintenanceUser persisted in the system. The code has now been updated to bypass saving operator records marked with pzPersistOperator="false" on user initialization; the CloudMaintenanceUser will be created with this property set to false, and updating this operator will be skipped during unauthentication.

Delete and change comparisons updated to support multi-tenant environments with shared classes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
When creating tenants in paex49, many of the rules did not actually complete importing into the tenant, and when creating new cases, some pages were getting instantiated as classless. This issue was seen only in multi-tenant environments when the same class was present in multiple tenants. Given a Pega class present in multiple tenants, making changes to that class for one tenant triggered invalidation of the dictionary cache that maintains a map with class name + tenant id as key and ClassInfo object as value because of the comparison method used. As a result, dictionary invalidation from one tenant could clear the entry of other tenant and cause the current tenant cache entry to become stale. To address this issue, the system has been updated to remove an entry for a class in tenant context based on key.

Corrected PRAuth URL handling for sessions on restarted nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
If a user session was in progress and the node restarted, attempting to refresh the session when the node came back up was not working. Launching a new browser session cleared the problem. A trace showed that the Authentication Selector screen was not loading because the PRAuth URL redirection was going into an infinite loop, and this has been corrected.

50 count limitation removed from application list export
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
Previously, using Designer Studio -> Application -> Distribution -> Export to export the list of applications limited the results to 50. This number was hardcoded in the page size count setting for the Report Definition. In order to better support complex installations, this limit has been lifted.

Dropdown sourced from data pages or clipboard pages working for all browsers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
After working to resolve a dropdown issue with Edge browsers, some other dropdowns sourced from a data page or clipboard page were failing to load. This was caused by the dpparams parameter being encoded so that the proper JSON was not retrieved, and has been fixed by modifying the system to decode it before passing the postdata.

DSS added to handle merges with lower versions of Postgres
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After update, executing the batch campaign with volume constraint resulted in the second data flow DF_Wait failing with error message "ERROR: number of columns (1844) exceeds limit (1664)". This was due to the database set’s change (in 8.5) to use the database layer’s merge statement. Prior to that, the logic used "deletes and inserts". Depending on the version of Postsgres, the generated SQL statement for a merge statement is different. The “INSERT … ON CONFLICT … UPDATE” syntax is generated for Postgres 9.5+ AND when there is a PK constraint defined for the DB table. Otherwise, the complex UPSERT statement (old syntax) is generated, as was the case in this issue. This is a known issue in the Postgres server software where it mis-interprets the number of columns involved. i.e., it mistakenly counts the number of columns twice. As a result, the actual maximum columns allowed is only half of the official limit (1664). The same UPSERT statement does not cause the “exceeds limit” exception if there are 832 or fewer columns in the statement. To resolve this, an option has been provided to select between the “original logic” (deletes and inserts) and the “merge statements” logic by way of the DSS “decision/datasets/db/useMergeStatementForUpdates”. Setting “true” will use the merge statement logic, and setting “false” will use deletes and inserts. When the DSS is not defined, the default is "true" and the system will use merge statements in the form preferred by Postgres 9.5+.

Iteration method updated for SetRequiredSkillsCountColumn
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After update, database utilization spiked and did not drop. Investigation traced this to the use of Local.totalCount in pzSetRequiredSkillsCountColumn, which caused the iteration loop to run more times than necessary. This has been resolved by replacing Local.totalCount with Local.iterationsCount in the iteration.

Improved accessibility for Disclosable Documents/attach files/auto selection dropdowns
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When using Dragon for accessibility, issues were seen when trying to select different options in the dropdowns related to attaching multiple files. This was caused by the legacy grids being used not supporting this type of accessibility functionality, and has been resolved by updating pzAttachFileDDFileList to use an optimized table instead.
