Hello Guys,
I have installed a CA SDM 17.1 with roll-up patch 17.1.0.2 and I need to know if is possible generate, inside a notification template, the following survey link with msg_digest function:
I've tried to install and uninstall the option op_Authenticate_Survey but no success.
Any ideas?

I have a related issue...I don't see MSG_DIGEST part a t all? Can someone point out what process generates this(webengine, mail daemon etc)? Thanks.
As far as I can see:
The MSG_DIGEST parameter gets generated by spelsrvr when preparing the mail message during sending a survey request. It was introduced because of a security violation in 17.1.0.2 , see https://support.ca.com/us/product-content/recommended-reading/security-notices/ca20190117-01-security-notice-for-ca-service-desk-manager.html

Michael, Is there a spell method for that? If so, what is the name and parameter they accept? It solve my problem for a while.

Hi Jorge,
In talk I had internally, this is dynamically generated by our code and there is no method right now to generate it through some SPEL code yet.

Hi Jorge,
Unfortunately this is not possible, at least not yet. There is a defect opened and Engineering is evaluating this subject and we we will need to wait to see what will be done in this matter. Currently, if you are using the URL survey in a notification template, there is no way to generate the MSG_DIGEST value manually or even automatically.
The MSG_DIGEST parameter in the survey link is internally generated by the system using a hash algorithm designed to ensure the integrity of the link/URL, so it cannot be tampered.
As a suggestion, you need to use the survey tab under Activity Notification instead of the URL survey link used under the custom notification template. Following this way, the new satisfaction surveys can be responded properly.
Note: the old surveys generated from tickets before the patch application still not having the new MSG_DIGEST parameter cannot be answered, and will return the error "AHD05237:Erro interno nas pesquisas." when clicking on the URL link. It would be necessary to reissue these surveys from these tickets so it would take the new parameter, hence they could be answered properly.

Roberto
