Added handling for unauthenticated asynchronous SOAP service
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After implementing changes to work around an error with SOAP authentication, the unauthenticated asynchronous SOAP service generated an error and failed to complete. This was due to the changes to the authentication process omitting the asynchronous mode case when a SOAP service that intended to not use authentication ends up calling a sub-activity that requires authentication. This use case is now covered.

Trace rule servicetype set for Service-File
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
'Trace rule' for the Service-File is not working even though 'Trace rule' for Pega Service type worked correctly. This was caused by an inability to trace the Service-File due to not setting the servicetype, and the API has been updated to explicitly set the servicetype as "File" in ServiceAPI class.

Tuned handling for child requestors in unauthenticated listener services
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
While executing Queue instruction through JMS listener service, the error "Rule Not Found" was logged. This exception was due to a child requestor invoking the queue activity using the PegaRULES application instead of the current application. This was a side effect of changes made to the Service API which set the requestor authentication to true when the service package is unauthenticated, a change made to run activities that have enabled 'require authentication'. However, the credentials were not passed; the requestor was authenticated and the child requestor created was still unauthenticated, causing this issue. To resolve this, the system will set the access group from Service layer.

Error logging smoothed for service activities-multi threading on multiple nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When an item was processed by one node and then in the process of being dequeued by the same node, other nodes attempting to access the same instance and queue received a warning message indicating the item had failed to dequeue. This message was verbose, and was filling up logs. For Advance mode Agents, when item is not found in the Queue Engine it was logging the message with "warnForced". To prevent the logging issue, the log level has been changed from 'warnForced' to 'warn'.

Work objects in dynamic container corrected for the AES Manager portal.
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a dynamic container is embedded in a section, the work objects opened through AES portal are opened in a dynamic container. When using the AES Manager portal with the Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 browser, work objects would open but then immediately the UI would scroll closed. This was a browser issue where harness tabs with IFRAME in production were not triggering the re-flow for DC tabs as they were for static tabs, and the system has been updated to perform this action correctly.

Handling added for undesignated authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If service package was unchecked, it was not possible to call authenticated activities from the service activity and errors were generated stating "You lack access required to execute RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS". To resolve this, changes have been made in the service layer to bypass authentication for all services that do not have authentication enabled on their service packages.

Added null check for datetime in SOAP
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Some SOAP services using a Response Parameter with Data Type of DateTime and for services of type RPC/ literal were generating an NPE when the service was executed outside Pega7 using Google Chrome. Running the service directly from the service rule within Pega7 did not encounter this error. Other SOAP requests returned a date of 1970-01-01. This was traced to a check to get the thread which did not handle situations where PRDateFormat.formatXSDDateTime() could be null, and the handling for that case has been added for this browser.
