The Field Generation prompt template type is specifically designed to enable generative AI within the context of a Salesforce record field. To expose this functionality to an end-user, the Agentforce Specialist must associate the template with the form field on the Lightning page (B). This is accomplished using the Lightning App Builder:
The Agentforce Specialist first creates a custom field (often a Long Text Area or Rich Text Area) on the desired object to store the AI-generated output.
In the Lightning App Builder for the object's Record Page, the Specialist selects the field component.
In the properties panel for that field component, there is a setting (often a dropdown) to select an active Field Generation Prompt Template.
Once associated, an Einstein icon (or "Generate" button) appears next to the field on the record page, allowing the user to click it to run the prompt, review the AI-generated content, and then decide to use it to populate the field.
Options A and C (using Flows) are methods for calling prompt templates to automate the generation of content or to ground the prompt with more complex data (like related list information). However, for the Field Generation prompt template to be exposed directly to the user for on-demand generation and manual review (the intended user experience for this template type), it must be bound to the field itself on the Lightning Record Page.
Simulated Exact Extract of AgentForce documents (Conceptual Reference):
"The Field Generation prompt template is surfaced to the user via the Lightning Record Page. After the prompt template is created and activated in Prompt Builder, the Agentforce Specialist must edit the Lightning Record Page in the Lightning App Builder. The key step is to select the target field component and, within its property panel, assign the Field Generation Prompt Template from the available dropdown menu. This action binds the generative AI capability directly to the field, displaying the 'Generate' button to the user to trigger the AI-assisted content creation upon the record."
