AgentForce Specialist - Prompt Template Issue

Universal Containers has grounded a prompt template with a related list. During user acceptance testing (UAT), users are not getting the correct responses. What is causing this issue?

• The related list is Read Only.

• The related list prompt template option is not enabled.

• The related list is not on the parent object's page layout.

Answer explanation

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:UC has grounded a prompt template with a related list, but the responses are incorrect during UAT. Grounding with related lists in Agentforce allows the AI to access data from child records linked to a parent object. Let’s analyze the options.

Option A: The related list is Read Only.Read-only status (e.g., via field-level security or sharing rules) might limit user edits, but it doesn’t inherently prevent the AI from accessing related list data for grounding, as long as the running user (or system context) has read access. This is unlikely to cause incorrect responses and is not a primary consideration, making it incorrect.

Option B: The related list prompt template option is not enabled.There’s no specific "related list prompt template option" toggle in Prompt Builder. When grounding with a Record Snapshot or Flex template, related lists are included if properly configured (e.g., via object relationships). This option seems to be a misphrasing and doesn’t align with documented settings, making it incorrect.

Option C: The related list is not on the parent object’s page layout.In Agentforce, grounding with related lists relies on the related list being defined and accessible in the parent object’s metadata, often tied to its presence on the page layout. If the related list isn’t on the layout, the AI might not recognize or retrieve its data correctly, leading to incomplete or incorrect responses. Salesforce documentation notes that related list data availability can depend on layout configuration, making this a plausible and common issue during UAT, and thus the correct answer.

Universal Containers (UC) is using standard Service AI Grounding. UC created a custom rich text field to be used with Service AI Grounding. What should UC consider when using standard Service AI Grounding?

• Service AI Grounding only works with Case and Knowledge objects.

• Service AI Grounding only supports String and Text Area type fields.

• Service AI Grounding visibility works m system mode.

Answer explanation

Service AI Grounding retrieves data from Salesforce objects to ground AI-generated responses. Key considerations:

Field Types: Standard Service AI Grounding supports String and Text Area fields. Custom rich text fields (e.g., RichTextArea) are not supported, making Option B correct.

Objects: While Service AI Grounding primarily uses Case and Knowledge objects (Option A), the limitation here is the field type, not the object.

Visibility: Service AI Grounding respects user permissions and sharing settings unless overridden (Option C is incorrect).

An Agentforce Specialist needs to create a prompt template to fill a custom field named Latest Opportunities Summary on the Account object with information from the three most recently opened opportunities. How should the Agentforce Specialist gather the necessary data for the prompt template?

• Select the latest Opportunities related list as a merge field.

• Create a flow to retrieve the opportunity information.

• Select the Account Opportunity object as a resource when creating the prompt template.

Answer explanation

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:In Salesforce Agentforce, a prompt template designed to populate a custom field (like "Latest Opportunities Summary" on the Account object) requires dynamic data to be fed into the template for AI to generate meaningful output. Here, the task is to gather data from the three most recently opened opportunities related to an account. The most robust and flexible way to achieve this is by using a Flow (Option B). Salesforce Flows allow the Agentforce Specialist to define logic to query the Opportunity object, filter for the three most recent opportunities (e.g., using a Get Records element with a sort by CreatedDate descending and a limit of 3), and pass this data as variables into the prompt template. This approach ensures precise control over the data retrieval process and can handle complex filtering or sorting requirements.

Option A: Selecting the "latest Opportunities related list as a merge field" is not a valid option in Agentforce prompt templates. Merge fields can pull basic field data (e.g., {!Account.Name}), but they don’t natively support querying or aggregating related list data like the three most recent opportunities.

Option C: There is no "Account Opportunity object" in Salesforce; this seems to be a misnomer (perhaps implying the Opportunity object or a junction object). Even if interpreted as selecting the Opportunity object as a resource, prompt templates don’t directly query related objects without additional logic (e.g., a Flow), making this incorrect.

Option B: Flows integrate seamlessly with prompt templates via dynamic inputs, allowing the Specialist to retrieve and structure the exact data needed (e.g., Opportunity Name, Amount, Close Date) for the AI to summarize.

Thus, Option B is the correct method to gather the necessary data efficiently and accurately.

What is a Salesforce Agentforce Specialist able to configure in Data Masking within the Einstein Trust Layer?

• The profiles exempt from masking

• The encryption keys for masking

• The privacy data entities to be masked

Answer explanation

In the Einstein Trust Layer, the Salesforce Agentforce Specialist can configure privacy data entities to be masked (Option C). This ensures sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII) is obfuscated when processed by AI models.

Data Masking Configuration:

The Agentforce Specialist defines which fields or data types (e.g., email, phone number, Social Security Number) should be masked. For example, masking the Email field in a prompt response to protect user privacy.

This is done through declarative settings in Salesforce, where entities (standard or custom fields) are flagged for masking.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A. Profiles exempt from masking: Exemptions are typically managed via permissions (e.g., field-level security), not directly within Einstein Trust Layer’s Data Masking settings.

B. Encryption keys for masking: Encryption is separate from masking. Masking involves obfuscation (e.g., replacing "[e-mail]" with "@"), not encryption, which uses keys to secure data.

Universal Containers tests out a new Einstein Generative AI feature for its sales team to create personalized and contextualized emails for its customers. Sometimes, users find that the draft email contains placeholders for attributes that could have been derived from the recipient’s contact record.

What is the most likely explanation for why the draft email shows these placeholders?

• The user does not have permission to access the fields.

• The user’s locale language is not supported by Prompt Builder.

• The user does not have Einstein Sales Emails permission assigned.

Answer explanation

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:UC is using an Einstein Generative AI feature (likely Einstein Sales Emails) to draft personalized emails, but placeholders (e.g., {!Contact.FirstName}) appear instead of actual data from the contact record. Let’s analyze the options.

Option A: The user does not have permission to access the fields.Einstein Sales Emails, built on Prompt Builder, pulls data from contact records to populate email drafts. If the user lacks field-level security (FLS) or object-level permissions to access relevant fields (e.g., FirstName, Email), the system cannot retrieve the data, leaving placeholders unresolved. This is a common issue in Salesforce when permissions restrict data access, making it the most likely explanation and the correct answer.

Option B: The user’s locale language is not supported by Prompt Builder.Prompt Builder and Einstein Sales Emails support multiple languages, and locale mismatches typically affect formatting or translation, not data retrieval. Placeholders appearing instead of data isn’t a documented symptom of language support issues, making this unlikely and incorrect.

Option C: The user does not have Einstein Sales Emails permission assigned.The Einstein Sales Emails permission (part of the Einstein Generative AI license) enables the feature itself. If missing, users couldn’t generate drafts at all—not just see placeholders. Since drafts are being created, this permission is likely assigned, making this incorrect.

Why Option A is Correct:Permission restrictions are a frequent cause of unresolved placeholders in Salesforce AI features, as the system respects FLS and sharing rules. This is well-documented in troubleshooting guides for Einstein Generative AI.

Universal Containers (UC) is looking to enhance its operational efficiency. UC has recently adopted Salesforce and is considering implementing Agent to improve its processes. What is a key reason for implementing Agent?

• Improving data entry and data cleansing

• Allowing AI to perform tasks without user interaction

• Streamlining workflows and automating repetitive tasks

Answer explanation

The key reason for implementing Agent is its ability to streamline workflows and automate repetitive tasks. By leveraging AI, Agent can assist users in handling mundane, repetitive processes, such as automatically generating insights, completing actions, and guiding users through complex processes, all of which significantly improve operational efficiency.

Option A (Improving data entry and cleansing) is not the primary purpose of Agent, as its focus is on guiding and assisting users through workflows.

Option B (Allowing AI to perform tasks without user interaction) does not accurately describe the role of Agent, which operates interactively to assist users in real time.

A Universal Containers administrator is setting up Einstein Data Libraries. After creating a new library, the administrator notices that only the file upload option is available; there is no option to configure the library using a Salesforce Knowledge base. What is the most likely cause of this Issue?

• The current Salesforce org lacks the necessary Einstein for Service permissions that support the Knowledge-based Data Library option, so only the file upload option is presented.

• Salesforce Knowledge is not enabled in the organization; without Salesforce Knowledge enabled, the Knowledge-based data source option will not be available in Einstein Data Libraries.

• The administrator is not using Lightning Experience, which is required to display all data source options, Including the Knowledge base option, when configuring Einstein Data Libraries.  

Answer explanation

Why is "Salesforce Knowledge is not enabled" the correct answer?

If an administrator only sees the file upload option in Einstein Data Libraries and cannot configure a Salesforce Knowledge base, the most likely reason is that Salesforce Knowledge is not enabled in the organization.

Key Considerations for Einstein Data Libraries:

Salesforce Knowledge Integration is Optional

Einstein Data Libraries can pull knowledge data only if Salesforce Knowledge is enabled.

If Knowledge is not activated, the system will default to file uploads as the only available option.

How to Fix This Issue?

The administrator should enable Salesforce Knowledge in Setup → Knowledge Settings.

Once enabled, the option to configure Knowledge-based Data Libraries will become available.

Why Not the Other Options?

❌ A. The current Salesforce org lacks the necessary Einstein for Service permissions

Incorrect because even without certain permissions, the Knowledge option would still be visible but greyed out.

❌ C. The administrator is not using Lightning Experience

Incorrect because Einstein Data Libraries are accessible in both Classic and Lightning, and Lightning does not control Knowledge base visibility.

Agentforce Specialist References

Salesforce AI Specialist Material confirms that Salesforce Knowledge must be enabled for Data Libraries to use Knowledge as a data source​.

Salesforce Certification Guide explicitly states that file uploads are the default option if Knowledge is not available.

Universal Containers would like to route SMS text messages to a service rep from an Agentforce Service Agent. Which Service Channel should the company use in the flow to ensure it’s routed properly?

• Messaging

• Route Work Action

• Live Agent

Answer explanation

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:UC wants to route SMS text messages from an Agentforce Service Agent to a service rep using a flow. Let’s identify the correct Service Channel.

Option A: MessagingIn Salesforce, the "Messaging" Service Channel (part of Messaging for In-App and Web or SMS) handles text-based interactions, including SMS. When integrated with Omni-Channel Flow, the "Route Work" action uses this channel to route SMS messages to agents. This aligns with UC’s requirement for SMS routing, making it the correct answer.

Option B: Route Work Action"Route Work" is an action in Omni-Channel Flow, not a Service Channel. It uses a channel (e.g., Messaging) to route work, so this is a component, not the channel itself, making it incorrect.

Option C: Live Agent"Live Agent" refers to an older chat feature, not the current Messaging framework for SMS. It’s outdated and unrelated to SMS routing, making it incorrect.

Option D: SMS ChannelThere’s no standalone "SMS Channel" in Salesforce Service Channels—SMS is encompassed within the "Messaging" channel. This is a misnomer, making it incorrect.

Why Option A is Correct:The "Messaging" Service Channel supports SMS routing in Omni-Channel Flow, ensuring proper handoff from the Agentforce Service Agent to a rep, per Salesforce documentation.

An Agentforce at Universal Containers is working on a prompt template to generate personalized emails for product demonstration requests from customers. It is important for the AI-generated email to adhere strictly to the guidelines, using only associated opportunity information, and to encourage the recipient to take the desired action. How should the Agentforce Specialist include these instructions on a new line in the prompt template?

• Surround them with triple quotes (""")

• Make sure merged fields are defined.

• Use curly brackets {} to encapsulate instructions.

Answer explanation

In Salesforce prompt templates, instructions that guide how the Large Language Model (LLM) should generate content (in this case, personalized emails) can be included by surrounding the instruction text with triple quotes ("""). This formatting ensures that the LLM adheres to the specific instructions while generating the email content.

The use of triple quotes allows the AI to understand that the enclosed text is a directive for how to approach the task, such as limiting the content to associated opportunity information or encouraging a specific action from the recipient.

Refer to Salesforce Prompt Builder documentation for detailed instructions on how to structure prompts for generative AI.

Universal Containers is rolling out a new generative AI initiative.

Which Prompt Builder limitations should the Agentforce Specialist be aware of?

• Rich text area fields are only supported in Flex template types.

• Creations or updates to the prompt templates are not recorded in the Setup Audit Trail.

• Custom objects are supported only for Flex template types.

Answer explanation

The Prompt Builder in Salesforce has some specific limitations, one of which is that custom objects are supported only for Flex template types. This means that users must rely on Flex templates to integrate custom objects into their prompts.

Option A: While rich text area fields have certain restrictions, this does not pertain to the core limitation of integrating custom objects.

Option B: Updates and creations for prompt templates are indeed recorded in the Setup Audit Trail, so this statement is incorrect.

Option C: This is the correct answer as it reflects a documented limitation of the Prompt Builder.
