I customized Pulse in Constellation 25 to hide the Reply button, but after completing the customization, I can still see the Comment (Reply) and Like buttons. I checked the DX API configuration for Pulse and could not find any parameter for Reply or Like, so I suspect these buttons are coming from the React SDK rather than the DX API component. Can anyone confirm whether this is correct, and suggest how we can override the SDK or otherwise hide the Reply and Like buttons?
If there is no parameter in the Pulse DX API for Reply or Like, then those buttons are most likely rendered by the Constellation client/SDK layer rather than being driven directly by the API response. In Constellation, when Pega wants a feature to be configurable, it usually exposes an extension point or rule-based setting, as seen with Pulse mentions; I am not aware of an equivalent supported extension for hiding Reply/Like in Pulse.
You may be able to suppress them through a custom React SDK/DX component override or client-side hiding approach, but that would be a custom and potentially upgrade-sensitive solution rather than a supported configuration option.
Additionally please check below link for implementing custom pulse type in Constellation-
A similar customization was attempted in the post linked below. However, as @RaviChandra pointed out, this workaround comes with its limitations that are highlighted in the thread as well.
