Platform > UPS:

Implemented an alternate solution to replace the cookie-based authentication mechanism for Experience Browser

Accessing the Experience Browser menu options such as 'Placement Content' or 'Placement Segment' in Incognito mode causes an endless loop of SSO Login. This issue occurs because the Experience Browser loads on a customer site, and the cookies set by the experience server are treated as third-party cookies by the browser. To access the Experience Browser menu options in Incognito mode, users must disable or allow third-party cookies on their browser.

ENG-25714

Find:

Getting 500 error in Find search term request

A client was getting a 500 error in the Find search term request. It looks like the Solr query was being timed out as there was no result found for the entered query, so the spellcheck came into action. Spellcheck uses all spell fields to get spell corrections and the data in the spell field was too large that's why the spellcheck component took more than Solr socket timeout and hence, the search service gave timeout exception error.

This issue has been fixed now. In the response, the search term will be truncated if it exceeds the max token length and spellcheck param will be passed as false to Solr.

ENG-25794
