Pass the Salesforce AI Associate Salesforce-AI-Specialist Questions and answers with CertsForce

Context of the Question

Einstein Prompt Builder is a Salesforce feature that helps generate text (summaries, email content, responses) using AI models.

The question presents three potential use cases, asking which one best fits the capabilities of Einstein Prompt Builder.

Einstein Prompt Builder Typical Use Cases

Text Generation & Summaries: Great for writing or summarizing content, like responding to an email or generating text for a record field.

Why Not Forecast Future Sales Trends or Identify Potential High-Value Leads?

(Option A) Forecasting trends typically involves predictive analytics and modeling capabilities found in Einstein Discovery or standard reporting, not generative text solutions.

(Option B) Identifying leads for marketing campaigns involves lead scoring or analytics, again an Einstein Discovery or Lead Scoring scenario.

Sending a Personalized RFP Email (Option C) is a classic example of using generative AI to compose well-structured, context-aware text.

ConclusionOption C (Send reply to a request for proposal via a personalized email) is the best match for Einstein Prompt Builder’s generative text functionality.

Salesforce AI Specialist Study GuideExplains that generative AI features in Salesforce are designed for creating or summarizing text, not for advanced predictive use cases (like forecasting or lead scoring).

When a custom Agent action is not being prioritized correctly by the planner service, the root cause is often missing or improperly defined action dependencies. The planner service determines the execution order of actions based on dependencies defined in the action instructions. To resolve this, the AI Specialist must explicitly specify dependent actions using their API names in the custom action’s configuration. This ensures the planner understands the sequence in which actions must be executed to meet business logic requirements.

Salesforce documentation highlights that dependencies are critical for orchestrating workflows in Einstein Bots and Agentforce. For example, if Action B requires data from Action A, Action A’s API name must be listed as a dependency in Action B’s instructions. The Einstein Bot Developer Guide states that failing to define dependencies can lead to race conditions or incorrect execution order.

In contrast:

Profiles or custom permissions (B) control access to the action but do not influence execution order.

LLM model provider and version (C) determine the AI model used for processing but are unrelated to the planner’s sequencing logic.

Context of the Question

Universal Containers (UC) wants to build a Flex prompt template that uses data returned by a Flow.

“Flex Prompt Templates” allow admins and AI Specialists to incorporate external or dynamic data into generative AI prompts.

Why “Add Flow Instructions” Is Needed

Passing Flow Data into Prompt Templates: When configuring the prompt, you must specify how data from the running Flow is passed into the Flex template. The designated element for that is typically “Flow Instructions,” which map the Flow outputs to the prompt.

Other Options:

Add Flex Instructions: Typically controls how the AI responds or structures the output, not how to bring Flow data into the template.

Add Prompt Instructions: Usually for static or manual instructions that shape the AI’s response, rather than referencing dynamic data from the Flow.

Outcome

“Add Flow Instructions” ensures the prompt can dynamically use the data that the Flow returns—making Option C correct.

Salesforce AI Specialist Study GuideOutlines how to configure generative AI prompts that reference real-time Flow data.

An AI Specialist wants to include data from the response of an external service invocation (REST API callout) into a prompt template. The goal is to incorporate dynamic data retrieved from an external API into the AI-generated content.

Solution:

Use External Service Record Merge Fields

External Service Integration:

Definition: External Services in Salesforce allow the integration of external REST APIs into Salesforce without custom code.

Registration: The external service must be registered in Salesforce, defining the API's schema and methods.

External Service Record Merge Fields:

Purpose: Enables the inclusion of data from external service responses directly into prompt templates using merge fields.

Functionality:

Dynamic Data Inclusion: Allows prompt templates to access and use data returned from REST API callouts.

Merge Fields Syntax: Use merge fields in the prompt template to reference specific data points from the API response.

Implementation Steps:

Register the External Service:

Use External Services to register the REST API in Salesforce.

Define the API's schema, including methods and data structures.

Create a Named Credential:

Configure authentication and endpoint details for the external API.

Use External Service in Flow:

Build a Flow that invokes the external service and captures the response.

Ensure the flow outputs the necessary data for use in the prompt template.

Configure the Prompt Template:

Use External Service Record merge fields in the prompt template to reference data from the flow's output.

Syntax Example: {{flowOutputVariable.fieldName}}

Why Other Options are Less Suitable:

Option A (Convert the JSON to an XML merge field):

Irrelevance: Converting JSON to XML merge fields is unnecessary and complicates the process.

Unsupported Method: Salesforce prompt templates do not support direct inclusion of XML merge fields from JSON conversion.

Option C (Use “Add Prompt Instructions” flow element):

Purpose of Add Prompt Instructions:

Allows adding instructions to the prompt within a flow but does not facilitate including external data.

Limitation: Does not directly help in incorporating external service responses into the prompt template.

Conclusion:

By using External Service Record merge fields, the AI Specialist can effectively include data from external REST API responses into prompt templates, ensuring that the AI-generated content is enriched with up-to-date and relevant external data.

To understand multiple real-world user utterances and ensure the correct action is selected before activating a custom copilot action, the recommended tool is Copilot Builder. This tool allows AI Specialists to design and test conversational actions in response to user inputs, helping ensure the copilot can accurately handle different user queries and phrases. Copilot Builder provides the ability to test, refine, and improve actions based on real-world utterances.

Option C is correct as Copilot Builder is designed for configuring and testing conversational actions.

Option A (Model Playground) is used for testing models, not user utterances.

Option B (Einstein Copilot) refers to the conversational interface but isn't the right tool for designing and testing actions.

The Temperature hyperparameter controls the randomness of model outputs:

Low Temperature (e.g., 0.2): More deterministic, consistent responses.

High Temperature (e.g., 1.0): More creative, varied responses.

Presence Penalty (Option A): Discourages repetition of tokens, unrelated to randomness.

Variability (Option B): Not a standard hyperparameter in Einstein Studio.

Explicitly states "Temperature adjusts the balance between predictable and random outputs."

Einstein Copilot currently supports various actions like creating and updating records but does not support the Delete Record action. Therefore, the user's request to delete activities from the past 7 days cannot be fulfilled using Einstein Copilot.

Unsupported Action: The inability to delete records is due to the current limitations of Einstein Copilot's supported actions. It is designed to assist with tasks like data retrieval, creation, and updates, but for security and data integrity reasons, it does not facilitate the deletion of records.

User Permissions: Even if the user has the necessary permissions to delete records within Salesforce, Einstein Copilot itself does not have the capability to execute delete operations.

Einstein Call Summaries is the best option for this scenario because it leverages Salesforce's AI capabilities to automatically summarize key details of video or voice calls. It includes details like deal terms, customer sentiments, follow-up tasks, and other crucial information. This feature is designed to help sales teams focus on their strategies rather than taking extensive manual notes during conversations.

Einstein Call Summaries: Automatically generates summaries for calls, identifying critical points such as next steps and follow-ups, enhancing efficiency and understanding of deal progression.

Einstein Conversation Insights: While it provides insights into customer sentiment and engagement, it is more suited for analyzing patterns across conversations rather than summarizing specific call details.

Einstein Video KPI: Focuses on analyzing key performance indicators within video calls but does not offer summarization features needed for deal terms or sentiment tracking.

This feature ensures actionable insights are delivered directly into the Salesforce CRM, allowing sales managers to gain a concise overview without manually reviewing long recordings.

When creating a custom prompt template to populate a field with generated output, the most appropriate template type is Field Generation. This template is specifically designed for generating field-specific outputs using generative AI.

Additionally, the AI Specialist must ensure that Dynamic Fields are enabled. Dynamic Fields allow the system to use real-time data inputs from related records or fields when generating content, ensuring that the AI output is contextually accurate and relevant. This is crucial when populating specific fields with AI-generated content, as it ensures the data source remains dynamic and up-to-date.

The Einstein Trust Layer will track and audit the interactions to ensure the organization can monitor AI adoption and make necessary enhancements based on AI usage patterns.

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 AI 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.
