We are going to break the world in the next update!!!!

Now that I have your attention, we are NOT going to break the world in the next update.  But we are needing to revisit the implementation of Favorites in CS and we know this may have impact on solutions.  We are trying to gauge the impact.  If you are not using Favorites then there is nothing to do, if you do then some questions for you: 

1. Does your solution use the following access point directly to get a user favorites?
   • UAPI.PrefsGet( uapiCtx.fSession, userId, 'PersonalFavoritesTabs' )
2. Does your solution update favorites using the following?
   • UAPI.PrefsPut( uapiCtx.fSession, userId, 'PersonalFavoritesTabs', {Structure}  )
3. Does your solution access/update the KUAFPrefs table directly?  If so, why?
4. Can you describe what your solution does with the Favorites information?

No.

None of our products do anything with Favorites.

We did build a customization for a client to remove the "delete" function from the function menu when browsing favorites. This was due to user confusion around using the "Delete" option from the function menu while viewing items in the Favorites. Users would often think that they were deleting the Favorite when in reality, they were deleting the object.
