Step 4: Define the Prompt Command

For Text Prompts:

  • Use the Prompt Command text box for free-form instructions

For JSON Prompts:

  • Define modular sub-components for structured prompting

Additional Capabilities:

  • Record Lookup: Search and select records from the target object
  • Quick Test: Instantly validate prompts on selected records
  • New Test Tab: Test prompts and view recently tested records
  • Logs include inputs, outputs, and timestamps

Step 5: Add Post-Prompt Actions

Define automation triggered after a prompt runs:

Supported Post-Prompt Actions:

  • Create Record: Create a new Salesforce record
  • Invoke Flow: Trigger an autolaunched Salesforce Flow
  • Invoke Apex: Execute an Apex class
  • Open Form: Display a pre-filled form based on AI output

Each action supports hardcoded values, field references, or AI-generated content and can be sequenced for complex workflows.
