Book Description
Agentforce is Salesforce’s next-generation framework for building autonomous AI agents that act intelligently on behalf of users. This book is your practical guide to leveraging Agentforce to create enterprise-grade agents that reason, plan, and execute across clouds.
You'll begin by mastering core concepts, agent types, the Atlas Reasoning Engine, and the Einstein Trust Layer, before setting up your development environment and using Agent Builder to create your first agents. A full case study walks you through building a production-grade room booking agent, preparing you for more advanced implementations.
In later chapters, you'll extend agents with Flow and Apex, build real-time intelligence using Data Cloud and semantic search, and secure your implementations. You'll then adopt DevOps practices to manage deployments, use the Command Center for performance insights, and integrate Agentforce across your enterprise landscape using MuleSoft and external services.
By the end, you’ll design and run robust Agentforce solutions that automate complex workflows and deliver measurable business value.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
