Online Agentforce-Specialist Questions Video

The AgentForce Retrieval Configuration Guide outlines that when external data must be filtered by specific criteria—such as WarrantyStatus = Active—the correct approach is to use Hybrid Search with pre-filtering logic defined in a custom retriever. The documentation specifies: “Hybrid search allows combining keyword precision and semantic context. When used with a custom retriever, administrators can pre-filter data on metadata fields (e.g., WarrantyStatus) to ensure that only eligible records are returned.”

Option A (relying on instructions) introduces non-deterministic behavior because the LLM cannot enforce data constraints. Option B (custom variable filtering) applies post-retrieval filtering, which is less efficient and less secure than index-level filtering. Therefore, Option C aligns with Salesforce’s best practice for deterministic, metadata-based retrieval control.

Why is "A data stream, a search index, and a retriever" the correct answer?

When a Salesforce Agentforce Data Library is configured and saved, it automatically creates three essential components in Data Cloud to facilitate AI-driven search and retrieval.

Key Components Created in Data Cloud:

Data Stream

This acts as the pipeline that brings data into Data Cloud.

It enables real-time data ingestion from sources such as Salesforce records, PDFs, or external databases.

Search Index

After ingestion, data is indexed for efficient search and retrieval.

This allows AI models to perform structured queries and retrieve relevant data faster.

Retriever

The retriever is an AI-powered search mechanism that uses the search index to fetch the most relevant data.

It ensures that AI-generated responses are grounded in structured, reliable data.

Why Not the Other Options?

❌ A. A data pipeline, an indexing engine, and a query processor

Incorrect because Data Cloud does not use a query processor in the same way as traditional databases.

Instead, retrievers handle AI-powered data searches.

❌ B. A data connector, an analytics dashboard, and a workflow rule

Incorrect because these components are not automatically created when setting up a Data Library.

Analytics dashboards and workflow rules are separate tools used for reporting and automation.

Salesforce AI Specialist Material confirms that a Data Stream, Search Index, and Retriever are created automatically in Data Cloud when configuring a Data Library​.

When Universal Containers creates a new Sales Email prompt template using the "Save As" function, missing hyperparameters can result in different outputs. To ensure the new prompt produces comparable results to the standard Sales Email prompt, the Agentforce Specialist should manually add the necessary hyperparameters to the new template.

Hyperparameters like Temperature, Frequency Penalty, and Presence Penalty directly affect how the AI generates responses. Ensuring that these are consistent with the standard template will result in similar outputs.

Option A (Model Playground) is not necessary here, as it focuses on fine-tuning models, not adjusting templates directly.

Option C (Reverting to the standard template) does not solve the issue of customizing the prompt template.

For more information, refer to Prompt Builder documentation on configuring hyperparameters in custom templates.

UC wants to streamline the use of Generative AI by reducing the time reps spend typing prompts and ensuring consistency, leveraging their existing prompt knowledge. Let’s evaluate the options.

Option A: Agent Builder and Action: Query Records.Agent Builder in Agentforce Studio creates autonomous AI agents with actions like "Query Records" to fetch data. While this could retrieve information, it’s designed for agent-driven workflows, not for simplifying manual prompt entry or ensuring consistency across user inputs. This doesn’t directly address UC’s concerns and is incorrect.

Option B: Einstein Prompt Builder and Prompt Templates.Einstein Prompt Builder, part of Agentforce Studio, allows users to create reusable prompt templates that encapsulate specific instructions and grounding for Generative AI (e.g., using public models via the Atlas Reasoning Engine). UC can predefine prompts based on their known language, saving time for reps by eliminating repetitive typing and ensuring consistency across sales and service teams. Templates can be embedded in flows, Lightning pages, or agent interactions, perfectly addressing UC’s needs. This is the correct answer.

Option C: Einstein Recommendation Builder.Einstein Recommendation Builder generates personalized recommendations (e.g., products, next best actions) using predictive AI, not Generative AI for freeform prompts. It doesn’t support custom prompt creation or address time/consistency issues for reps, making it incorrect.

Why Option B is Correct:

Einstein Prompt Builder’s prompt templates directly tackle UC’s challenges by standardizing prompts and reducing manual effort, leveraging their familiarity with Generative AI language. This is a core feature for such use cases, as per Salesforce documentation.
