Unable to open the rule references using Flashplayer in V722

Hi,

We know that Flashplayer support ended in Dec’20 and due to that we are unable to open the rule references in our V722 application. Do we have any alternative way to work on this functionality? I saw a component in Market Place but that didn’t work for me after installation done. The documentation was broken in that link to see how it works in V722. May be I am missing something in using this component to resolve this issue.

Component:

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Ravi Kumar Pisupati.

Hi @Ravi Kumar Pisupati

The component you mention does not support 7.2.2; it supports 7.3, 7.4, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3. Earlier last year there was a community article posted on the flash player deprecation. Please look at this: Pegasystems Documentation

Around the use of the flash in developer portal there is the following advise:

Upgrade to a more recent version of the Pega Platform

  • If you are still actively developing and modifying your application using Dev Studio, you should upgrade to a more recent version of the Pega Platform. This is the recommended best practice.
  • The Referencing Rule viewer was changed in Pega 8.4 to use auto-generated UI.
  • The Declare Network viewer will be updated in Pega 8.5 to use auto-generated UI.
  • These viewers are available on Pega Exchange as components but only supported for some specific Pega Platform releases (not all released are supported)

So at this point I am afraid you either need to live with the fact that you cannot use the referencing rule feature or plan to upgrade to a version that does support the component or better to the last version.

@DionLammers - Thank you for the update.

@DionLammers We are still developing in 7.2.2. It would definitely be helpful if we could still use the Rule Referencing Tool.

@NascoMan - I have done some research on getting this feature in my V722 env and I was successful with a small local change on the Navigation rule given in the component mentioned in the post. Here are the steps to be followed.

  1. Import the component code

  2. Add the RSV or the component to your Application rule

  3. Create a new version to the given RS.ie. Rulereference_20190919T083100624:01-01-02

  4. Open the Navigation rule and add the Harness call in the Actions section in the new RSV and check-in the version. Make sure to make this rule as Available instead of Final.

After making the changes, logoff and login.

Thanks,

Ravi Kumar.

@Ravi Kumar Pisupati My application was built on Pega 7.1.7. I tried to do the same but it did not work. It showed as in picture belows. Do you have any idea to fix it?
