Agentforce is revolutionizing Salesforce Setup by enabling admins to use a conversational interface for managing users, troubleshooting formulas, and navigating Setup without needing SOQL queries. This open beta tool addresses common admin pain points by simplifying access to complex configurations and providing contextual answers based on Salesforce documentation. The platform aims to expand capabilities to multi-step orchestration for building and managing objects and fields, ultimately empowering admins to be more efficient and make better-informed decisions. Admins can try the tool now in production, sandbox, or developer orgs and share feedback to help shape its future capabilities.

Today on the Salesforce Admins Podcast, we talk to Cheryl Feldman, Senior Director of Product Management at Salesforce. Join us as we chat about how Agentforce will make Setup smarter, faster, and way more helpful. You should subscribe for the full episode, but here are a few takeaways from our conversation with Cheryl Feldman. Setup made simple Cheryl Feldman is on a quest to make Setup easier for admins, and she’s the perfect person to get it done. She’s been a Salesforce customer, an admin, and an architect, so she knows how difficult it can be to answer seemingly simple questions, like, “How do I get a list of users that can modify all data?” Right now, you’d need to run a SOQL query for that. That’s about to change with Setup with Agentforce. You’ll be able to use a conversational interface to manage users and user access, troubleshoot formulas, and much more. And Cheryl’s just getting started.
