    Hi There,


    I am looking to implement salesforce & jotform.

    I am curious is it possible to place a form on a salesforce community?


    Use case:

    The client logs into the community and then presses a button called 'New Case'. This walks through the jotform and at the end creates a new case with the info gathered?

    Thanks!

    Hi Finbar,

    We’re thrilled to announce that Salesforce Agent is now available! With Jotform’s AI Agent, you can create an AI Chatbot that learns from your Salesforce knowledge and can integrate with any object in your Salesforce environment! The agent can create, update, or look up Salesforce records in real time during conversations, offering an easy-to-deploy, no-code, and cost-effective AI-powered solution.

    In a few quick steps, you can add and set up the Salesforce Agent. Here’s how to get started:

    1. In AI Agent Builder, in the Channels menu on the left side of the page, click on Salesforce.

    2. Then, in the top-right corner of the page, click on Connect to Salesforce.

    After logging in to your account, you’ll see ready-made use cases that you can choose from. Or, you can click on Start From Scratch, and click on Next to add the necessary actions and related topics from your Salesforce Org into the agent and its knowledge base. Here’s a brief explanation of these use cases and what they’re used for:

    • Lead & Opportunity Management — Use this to convert conversations into leads or opportunities and direct them to the appropriate team. Two actions are available: Create Lead and Update Lead.
    • Order Tracking — This lets you keep track of orders, manage shipments, handle claims, and send delivery updates. Five actions are available: Verify Customer, Get Order by Order Number, Get Order by Contact, Create Service Request for Order, and Cancel Order.
    • Knowledge & FAQ Assistance — With this you can provide answers to common questions and give quick access to helpful resources. Two actions are available: Verify Customer and Create Case.
    • Case Management — Use this to manage support cases from creation to resolution, including updates and escalations. Six actions are available: Verify Customer, Create Case, Get Cases by Contact, Get Case by Case Number, Add Case Comment, and Escalate Case.
    • Appointment Scheduling — With this you can help customers with appointment scheduling and rescheduling while maintaining current calendars. There are five actions available: Verify Customer, Book Appointment, Reschedule Appointment, View Appointment Details, and Add Notes to Event.
    • Employee & HR Support — This helps employees by answering inquiries and assisting them with internal procedures. There are three actions availablen: Verify User, Submit Support Request, and Update Employee Information.

    5. Select a ready-made use case or click on Start From Scratch.

    6. And then, click on Next.

    There are two sections for each use case: Actions and Knowledge. Select Actions to allow your agent access to Salesforce to create, update, or show data, and Knowledge to use Salesforce articles and information to train your agent so it can provide context-based answers.

    Let’s take a look at some actions you’ll use most frequently, starting with the Create Lead action in the Lead & Opportunity Management flow:

    7. Once you select Lead & Opportunity Management and click on Next, you’ll be taken to Agent Summary. There, click on the Forward Arrow icon in the Actions.

    9. To add more fields, click on Add Field, and then click on it again and select the field you want to add from the Dropdown menu.
