Corrected opening collapsible rows with modal action inside a nested pane grid
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After expanding the second level of a collapsible row in a table and then collapsing the row back down again, trying to expand other rows in the table did not work and the error "Unable to get property 'target' of undefined or null reference" appeared on the console. This was an issue with a modal action configured inside a nested pane grid that was attempting to call a target key on an undefined object, and has been resolved by explicitly checking for the existence of the 'event' object before calling the 'target' key on it.

Corrected comma in chat appearing as ',null,'
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When a comma was sent in chat, it appeared as ",null,". For example, " I am applying the loan now,null, thanks ". Investigation showed that this was caused by Pega code that was overriding a JSON parse native API, and it has been resolved by removing the override and handling the Pega parse via a different API.

Dragresize plugin removed from RTE for better Microsoft browser compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When a messge was sent through Pega chat while using the Edge web browser, the text field where the message was entered before the send button was pressed did not get cleared. This was traced to the Edge browser throwing a Permission Denied error while attempting to access a detached DOM element. To resolve this, the 'dragresize' plugin has been removed from RTE as its implementation is not compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and Edge.

Shortened URLs (bit.ly) supported with custom image size
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
Marketing offers were very slow to load, often generating requestor lock exceptions due to the wait time. This was traced to one cell in one section that housed a company logo: the source to icon had a shortened "bit.ly" URL when the ImgaeIO API in Java expected the actual URL as its input. The API could not convert the shortened URL to the actual URL, resulting in the retries and connection failure. To resolve this, 'javax.imageio.ImageIO' invocation will happen only when the image size is auto. If custom height and width are used to display an image, Pega will not depend on the Java library and the system will be able to resolve the shortened URL.

RemoveThreadLEvelPages modified to preserve primary page for current action
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
The Job Scheduler Executions drill down showing success/fail results was inconsistently showing results for the wrong jobs when sorting by column (job name). Unsorted, it opened the correct results. This was traced to the pyRemovethreadLevelPages activity removing all pages including datapages on doUIAction, causing any action performed on the UI after sorting the grid to open a wrong page. This was an issue for both the Job scheduler page and the Queue processor page. To resolve this, the pyRemovethreadLevelPages activity has been modified to not remove the data page if it is the primary page for the current action.

UPDATE IMPACT FOR PEGA CALL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Log4j-1.2.14.jar and Log4j-1.2.17.jar have been removed to address the security concerns with these versions, and logger jars have been upgraded to 12.7.2 version (from 12.7.1 version) to make Pega Call compatible. This change will impact Pega Call customer environments due to Avaya or Genesys, which are part of Pega Call, having an internal dependency on Log4j1.x version jars. As a result, the SDK logging for Avaya or Genesys will not be available in the 8.7.3 release unless the Log4j-1.x jar files are reimported locally.

Null value handling added for CBU
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update, changes made to the Operator record were not reflected and the Actions menu in Operator record did not show all available actions after the Operator was saved. This has been resolved by adding handling for null values passed as String for arguments from cbu.xml for the PegaCBU utility.
