As a SF Architect how do you stay current with new tech? Lilith Van Biesen: sometimes you just need to know the high level concepts, sometimes you need to go deep into the nitty gritty. Nice interview @iangotts.bsky.social @elementscloud.bsky.social www.youtube.com/shorts/-u_06...

Salesforce friends, has anyone used Cassidy AI? Just encountered this tool recently and it seems like a simple AI workflow tool. Like the Zapier of Agentic AI (lots of simple pre-built connectors to popular apps, point and click config, etc). Anyone have experience with this? www.cassidyai.com

Build AI automations powered by your company data
Cassidy securely integrates with your tools, leveraging company knowledge to automate tasks with assistants and workflow automations.

Indexing: what fields / metadata is agentforce using to find & interpret articles? Index refresh: the documentation says that the Knowledge base is indexed daily but can be manually indexed. but the "Refresh Data Source" button is greyed out on the Agent Action. (5/x) Anyone have experience w this?

Questions: Does anyone have any experience or documentation about using Knowledge with Agentforce? Specifically: Tips for structuring Knowledge articles? Tips for structuring agent/topic instructions for Knowledge use case? Tips for configuring the Einstein Data Library? (4/x)

Brian Shea @sheaconsulting.bsky.social · 28/12/2024
All articles are written in a similar format so the quality of the title / summary / content does not seem to be what is causing the inconsistency. All articles have clear title and summary. (3/x)

Brian Shea @sheaconsulting.bsky.social · 28/12/2024
Issue: it seems like the agent is able to use some of the article very effectively (synthesizing multiple pieces of information from an article, detecting subtleties of an article, etc), but other articles not so much (missing main points from an article, etc). (2/x)

Salesforce Knowledge + Agentforce question // I'm building an agent with the "Answer Questions with Knowledge" ootb action. The knowledge base is relatively small (a few dozen articles) with articles structured in consistent Q&A format (each article answers one discrete question). (1/x) 🧵

hi friends, does anyone know if it's possible to find a list of the Starter Packs that I've followed? Alternatively, is there a way to search for Starter Packs? I want to share a Starter Pack that I followed a few days ago...but now I can't find it. Thanks for the help!

One of my favorite tech / startup people to follow is Jason Cohen @asmartbear.com . He's the founder of SmartBear and WPEngine and he's been writing a fantastic blog for years (decades?) at longform.asmartbear.com/jason-cohen/ . Definitely someone to follow here on Bluesky

Jason Cohen: About the author
Jason Cohen: I built a few companies, two of which are now unicorns, both bootstrapped and VC-funded, bought and sold a few, invested in dozens, and wrote about everything I know.
