Can Agentforce access external APIs

AgentForce is a smart tool that helps with customer and team support. But did you know it can also connect with other systems? By using external APIs, AgentForce can bring in live data, finish tasks automatically, and make customer service easier. Here’s how it works.

1. Getting Live Data

AgentForce can pull in fresh data from other sources to give fast and correct information.

Stock Updates – If a customer asks about a product, AgentForce can check the inventory system and show what’s available.
Shipping Info – It can get tracking details from a shipping company and tell customers where their package is.

“AgentForce can bring in outside data and show it in chat, so agents have everything they need in one place.” – Hannah Watkins, SOLVD Consultant

2. Automating Tasks

AgentForce can finish tasks in other systems, so agents don’t have to do them manually.

Processing Refunds – It can connect to payment systems to start a refund.
Creating Support Tickets – It can open tickets in other tools to speed up customer service.

3. Making Customer Support Easier

AgentForce can use data from other systems to help customers better.

Product Suggestions – It can check what a customer bought before and suggest similar products.
Language Support – It can connect to a translation tool to help customers in different languages.

4. Connecting to Company Tools

AgentForce also works with company systems to help teams work better.

Finding Documents – It can pull up guides or policies from a company database.
Tracking Time – Employees can log hours through a timekeeping system.

How Does AgentForce Connect to APIs?

Salesforce provides tools to make these connections simple:

Apex – For custom API connections.
MuleSoft – For managing APIs at a larger scale.
Salesforce Connect – For linking live data from other sources.

Make Work Easier with AgentForce

Testimonials

Our clients say

From my initial call with Spencer through project implementation with John and Evan, my experience with the SOLVD team was excellent. They were quick to understand our business needs, clear when explaining the reasoning behind proposed solutions, transparent when reporting on progress and timeline, and all around enjoyable to work with. Would highly recommend and looking forward to continue working with them in the future!

Veronica Wong Director of Operations at Pathstream

SOLVD was very straight forward with everything needed to complete the project. No surprises, no issues, and cost was aligned with the estimate. They made implementation easy and quick.

Matt Benzaquen Sr Manager, Sales Strategy at Instabug

As a rule, I'm pretty stingy with my recommendations. So it's a pleasure for me to recommend Solvd as a top-flight Salesforce consultancy. Solvd recently led our company's conversion to the Lightning interface and did it on time, on budget and made it easy for me and my team. I know I'll use their services again, and am confident they can do the same for you.
