Why is "The data source cannot be changed after it is selected" the correct answer?
When configuring an Agentforce Data Library, the data source selection is permanent. Once a data source is set, it cannot be modified or replaced. This design ensures data consistency, security, and reliability within Salesforce's AI-driven environment.
Key Considerations in Agentforce Data Library
Data Source Lock-In
The chosen data source remains fixed to maintain data integrity and avoid inconsistencies.
Any updates or modifications require creating a new Data Library instead of modifying the existing one.
Why Can't the Data Source Be Changed?
The data source defines the foundation of AI-driven workflows, and any modification would disrupt processing logic.
Agentforce tools rely on structured datasets to enable AI-powered recommendations, and changing data sources could lead to inconsistencies in grounding techniques.
Workarounds for Changing Data Sources
If an organization needs to use a different data source, a new Agentforce Data Library must be created and configured from scratch.
Old data can be manually migrated into the new data source for continuity.
Why Not the Other Options?
❌ A. The data source can be changed through the Data Cloud settings.
Incorrect because once the data source is linked to an Agentforce Data Library, it cannot be altered, even via Data Cloud settings.
❌ B. The Data Retriever can be reconfigured to use a different data source.
Incorrect as the Data Retriever works within the constraints of the selected data source and does not provide an option to swap data sources post-selection.
Agentforce Specialist References
The Salesforce AI Specialist Material and Salesforce Instructions for the Certification confirm that once a data source is set for an Agentforce Data Library, it cannot be changed.
