Pega CSSA Course

Learn to create a Pega application via the wizard, log in as super admin, choose classic over cosmos, set framework or implementation, and configure version, organization, and class structure.

Design a case lifecycle in Pega CSSA by building stages for recruitment, defining service and request applications, connectors, and integration rules.

Explore how temporary cases reside on the clipboard, not in the database, and how duplicate case search and immediate persist convert them to permanent cases when conditions are met.

Identify the user and portal type, choose composite or custom type, and configure harnesses, skin scheme, screen layouts, and sections to shape the portal hierarchy.

Organize portal layouts by selecting components such as buttons, navigation, or layouts. Then customize branding with backgrounds, text formats, logos, and skins to apply a default or alternate scheme.

Explore customization of your portal by selecting what content, widgets, and menus to display, tailor logos and branding, and configure dashboards to meet user needs.

Add the portal to the appropriate access group and tailor the screen layout, harness, and navigation using app studio and dev studio, including logos and widgets.

Compare production rule sets with application rule sets and explain application validation mode and ruleset validation mode, plus the role of prerequisite rule sets.

Explore how field values act as separate rule entities in Pega CSSA, enabling centralized management, localization, and versioning for dropdown options like country.

Explore field values as a reusable alternative to local lists, enabling multi-property models, labels, and localized text, with dynamic parameters for flexible, cross-case and cross-application use.

Explore clipboard debugging in Pega, inspecting data pages, user data, linked properties, and system pages, and learn to use the tracer and break points for rule-level execution insights.

Discover how privileges act as tokens to control access at rule and role levels, managed via the security access manager. Understand authentication policies and role-based controls across the application.

Explore how access groups determine application-wide access and define roles like admin, manager, or end user, with class-level rules, access deny, and environment axes 0 to 5.

Learn how to migrate a Pega application using product rules and product tools, moving code, data, and schemas across dev, test, and production environments with manual or wizard packaging.

Package and distribute Pega applications using the packaging wizard, selecting rule sets and versions. Compare packaging with export and manage dependencies and access groups across dev, test, and production.

Configure a product rule in Pega CSSA by selecting version ranges and entities for each address. Enable unlocked rule versions, apply global exclusions, and generate the product file rap archive.

Export your product as a rap file and migrate it across multiple environments with the migration wizard, selecting the version and providing credentials for import.

Explains parallel development using team-specific branches on a mega platform, covering creation of team applications, branch workflows, access, and merging to the main application with minimal conflicts.

Learn how to localize an application with export and import of translation packs, language selection, rule sets, and UI verification for end users and developers.

Pull data from applications with connectors like REST and using activities or robotic automation; manage multiple sources, including default and alternate sources, and apply refresh strategies to keep information current.

Learn how to load a single student record and a student list from a data source using explicit references, mapping properties, and embedded data in a Pega workflow.

Explore property-based and template-based circumstancing by defining templates and definitions, configuring circumstance rules based on customer type, dates, location, and journey, and toggling from base to specialized rules.

Highlight how Pega uses data transfers, functions, and activities to implement business logic, detailing activity types, methods, logging, and performance considerations.

Learn how to decide when to use activities, leverage data pages and methods, and manage background processing across nodes with jobs, schedulers, and queue processors to handle bulk tasks efficiently.

Learn how the Pega job scheduler replaces advanced agents to run activities on multiple nodes at scheduled intervals, with background processing, context-based access, and alerting for execution status.

Explore how to work with reports in Pega CSSA, from defining report definitions and queries to joining reports with a common column, and presenting aggregated data via charts.

Learn how web mashups enable cross-site access to your application via a generated code, with encryption and security policies, plus options to generate a mobile version and preview.

Learn to configure Android and iOS certificates, build and deploy mobile apps, and customize security, offline capabilities, branding, and previews using the deployment wizard.
