Resolved Issues

This release contains the following resolved issues:


Genesys Pulse no longer provides print preview within the dashboard. (WBRT-3643)


When the JDBC connection cannot be opened, Genesys Pulse attempts to reload widgets. Previously in this scenario, you had to reload the browser window. (WBRT-3235)


While editing a Template in the Statistics step, Genesys Pulse now requests confirmation about unsaved changes. Previously, Genesys Pulse did not request confirmation after the first successful save. (WBRT-3225)


When creating a KPI widget, you can select only 10 objects to save for each widget. Previously, you could have selected more than 10 objects, but Genesys Pulse only saved 10 of them. (WBRT-3224)


Genesys Pulse no longer allows you to create a widget containing both individual objects and groups. (WBRT-3208)


If the same dashboard is opened in two different browsers (or different windows of the same browser), changes made in some widget on this dashboard in one session are now also applied to the second session. Previously, you might have needed to reload your browser window to synchronize the updated information in the second session. (WBRT-3191, WBRT-3180)


The List and KPI widgets are now updated when a user does not have permission to view all of the selected objects. (WBRT-3168)


The type of objects at the Select Objects step in the Wizard now displays correctly in case of quick switching between By Individual Object and By Group. (WBRT-3166)


A statistic newly added to a widget is now automatically shown in a grid. (WBRT-3162)


The selected objects are now properly updated when a Quick Filter is applied to the list of objects. (WBRT-3072)


If a widget is changed on the default dashboard, Genesys Pulse now displays a widget correctly. Previously in some scenarios, the headings overlapped the graphics. (WBRT-3053)
