Hotfix catalogue for Pega Strategic Applications
Hi,
Do we have any hotfix catalogue or any way which can identify missing hotfixes for Pega strategic applications so that we can keep our system upto date and don't have to visit the product page oftenly? I think hotfix catalogue can only scan all hotfixes which are related to Base Pega product.

With Pega 8.x, we began creating Patch Releases instead of doing hotfixes.
Please check out our Available Patch Releases to make sure you are up to date.
Thank you!

@MarissaRogers I am aware of patch release process on Post 8.x, My question is related to Pega strategic applications where hotfixes are released/described on their corresponding product page. The Hotfix scanner file (Catalog.zip) doesn't tell you about the critical missing hotfixes for Pega Strategic applications like Pega Marketing, Customer Service etc.

My apologies for misunderstanding your question. You are correct, we did switch to patches for Pega Platform.
I'm not sure if you've checked out this page: Required Pega Customer Decision Hub and Pega Marketing hotfixes but that's a good starting place.
Let me reach out here and see if I can find any other information for you.
Thanks!

Thanks @MarissaRogers . I understand there is a separate product page for Hotfix related to Strategic application but I also understand this page keeps getting updated and it's quite likely that if a new hotfix is posted here, we might miss this as there is no process of notifying the customers. The only way I can see is to keep checking the product page and see if the system has got all the hotfixes. Do we have an automated way so that customers can be informed about any new hotfixes for strategic applications or if we can generate a catalogue for strategic applications as well?

@MarissaRogers Hi, Could you please check if someone can help on this? is that possible to subscribe to the product page so that we get a notification when the page is updated.

Hello,
Yes the log viewer is having a HOTFIX catalog option. You will be able to identify missing hotfixes on strategic application.

@MarcLasserre_GCS Thanks for your quick reply. I can see you are using v3.2 but I can only find the v3.1 in the below url:--
https://github.com/pegasystems/pega-logviewer/releases
when I use v3.1, i don't see this option of adding hotfix catalog viewer as shown in the attached screenshot. do i need to install any plugin?
