Maintain Your Agentforce Specialist Certification for Summer ’26
Learning Objectives
After completing this unit, you’ll be able to:
- Describe how Agent Script improves control and governance in Agentforce Builder.
- Explain how Agentforce Grid supports designing, testing, and managing AI workflows.
- Identify key metrics and troubleshooting tools in Agentforce Observability.
- Explain how organizations monitor and improve AI agent performance after deployment.
Build More Reliable Agents with New Agentforce Builder
The new Agentforce Builder changes how teams build and manage AI agents. Instead of relying only on natural language prompts, builders can now use Agent Script—a structured language that combines deterministic logic with large language model (LLM) reasoning. Deterministic logic follows defined paths and rules, such as conditions and transitions, while LLM reasoning adds flexibility when interpreting and responding to requests.
With Agent Script, teams can create more reliable and consistent agent behavior using logic like:
- If/then conditions
- Transitions between topics and actions
- Defined workflow paths
This added control helps organizations build agents that are easier to test, govern, and manage across the business.
The redesigned Agentforce Builder also introduces several new tools that support development and troubleshooting.
Feature | Purpose |
|---|---|
Canvas and Script views | Build visually or work directly in script. |
Built-in AI assistance | Speed up agent development. |
Validation checks | Identify issues before deployment. |
Step-by-step trace previews | Review how the agent interprets instructions and responds. |
Step-by-step trace previews are especially useful during testing. These traces show how an agent selected actions, followed instructions, and generated responses. This makes troubleshooting and refinement much easier before deployment.
These updates give teams more control and visibility during agent development. Organizations can build AI agents with more consistent behavior and better understand how agents behave before deployment.
Monitor Agent Performance with Agentforce Observability
As AI agents move into production environments, teams need better ways to monitor performance, identify issues, and improve results over time. Agentforce Observability helps teams monitor, understand, and troubleshoot agent behavior after deployment. Agent Analytics, part of Agentforce Observability, provides dashboards, metrics, and tracing tools that help teams measure performance and understand how agents behave during real interactions.
Organizations can now track several new metrics that measure response quality and overall agent effectiveness.
Metric | What It Measures |
|---|---|
User Feedback | Positive and negative user responses |
Task Resolution Rate | How often the agent successfully completes tasks |
Instruction Adherence Rate | How closely the agent follows instructions |
Average Agent Toxicity Score | Potentially harmful or inappropriate responses |
Agent Analytics also uses a semantic data model based on data model objects (DMOs) that helps teams create custom reports and analyze agent activity across the organization. To troubleshoot issues, teams use a split view that combines Interaction Details and Trace Events. Administrators review how an agent responded, which actions it selected, and where issues occurred during an interaction.
These updates help organizations monitor agent performance, investigate issues more efficiently, and improve agent behavior after deployment.
