It can be sales, marketing, services, and commerce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This autonomous AI agent is built to perform tasks for both customers and employees without any human interference to execute tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, a customer has bought a t-shirt and now wants to return it to get an immediate refund. It&#8217;s a black Friday sale, and all your customer reps are busy. Now, to address this issue, a customer service agent should be deployed to close this case without the need for human interference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agentforce is intelligent enough to make decisions independently and solve triggers quicker than humans. Salesforce charges Agentforce $2 per conversation. You can also create <\/span><b>Agentforce agents<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by describing them in natural language.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, Agentforce is trained on your organization\u2019s best practices.

In this section, we will take you through the process of how an Agentforce functions:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Agent Builder<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, you have to build an agent, which you can easily do by using Agent Builder. It is a part of Agentforce Studio. The configuration of the agent has to be done in natural language. Channels are the ways that humans and agents communicate with each other.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agent Builder interface has four sections:\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Left Sidebar:<\/strong> Navigate between agent settings<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Right Panel:<\/strong> Test-drive conversations with the agent<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Middle Panel:<\/strong> Display test-drive outputs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>2. Agent Topics and Actions\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agent topics are the foundational building blocks for agents. It defines what agents can do, such as an order management topic that allows the agent to access order history and modify product specifications. Topic help in setting guardrails that set limitations on what an agent can handle based on assigned topics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, actions are linked to topics, which is another building block of agents that specify what the agent can perform. They can include flows and other interactive tasks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Assign and create a new topic action.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Actions can be assigned through a simple interface that is available in your org. It is as simple as ticking actions from the list that appears in the pop-up window.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To create a new topic, a pop-up screen asks you to add a reference action type (Apex, Flow, Mulesoft API, or prompt). Choose MuleSoft API and data source API. The agent query can talk to these APIs just like human users are able to after adding an API chance to edit inputs and outputs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Testing the agent\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Users can test the agent response in real time with the Atlas reasoning engine. Simply, the user can input prompts and see how the agent identifies relevant topics. Observe the actions being taken, such as querying the database, and ensure that the responses are accurate and grounded.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Omni supervisor<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This feature helps managers oversee agents, providing insights into overall trends and allowing them to listen in on live interactions. This ensures quality control and performance monitoring.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Data integration<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agentforce relies on the data cloud for data processing, which can handle both structured, e.g., salesforce records, and unstructured data, e.g., emails. Data cloud facilitates the flow of information between various salesforce applications, enhancing the agent\u2019s capabilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Salesforce uses a technique called RAG inside the Atlas Reasoning Engine that produces a feedback loop with a data cloud. This allows the agent to generate more contextual and relevant outputs based on the available data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By analyzing all the data stored in the data cloud, the output gets improved, and AI learns more about the business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. Data management techniques<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The data that is required for highly contextual responses is not directly stored in Salesforce. So, there are options to bring this data into Agentforce. With data cloud ingestion, you can set up a new data source and bring data into the data cloud on a scheduled basis. You can also use Zero-copy to set up a new data source to virtualize record data or use MuleSoft APIs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. Data Graphs\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data Graphs help you visualize the relationship between the data model objects. So the user can investigate whether the correct data is available while providing instructions to the Agentforce agent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. Prompt Builder<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have discussed how an action is sourced from a prompt. You can create, edit, new, existing, and prompt to make it smarter. You can also select your choice of LLM model.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. Search Index<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The brain behind the Agentforce is RAG ( Retrieval augmented generation), which is the reasoning part of the Altas Reasoning Engine. For improving results retrieved from a wealth of data in the data cloud, you can set up a search retriever. This will enhance the quality of responses based on the wealth of data available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Agentforce_Agent_Is_Different_from_Einstein_Bots\"><\/span><strong>How Agentforce Agent Is Different from Einstein Bots?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the emergence of LLMs and gen AI, every other company wants to be an AI company.

However, they are limited to certain scripts and seem robotic because they lack natural language and reasoning capabilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then there is Agentforce Agent, which is an advanced form of AI that performs better than Einstein bots without the need for human intervention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, Agentforce service agents are more advanced than any other bot available in the market, but sometimes you need to stick with the Einsetin bot when clear, explainable processes are needed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You get a better understanding by looking at the difference between Salesforce Agentforce and Einstein bots in terms of setup, maintenance, context, and expectational handling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Difference\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agentforce service agent\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Einstein bots\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setup<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy to set up within minutes with prebuilt topics and agents.
