Spend Less Time Diagnosing Agent Errors with More Actionable Error Messages

During preview conversations, Agentforce Builder shows more detailed error messages for some platform services, replacing errors that were silent or difficult to diagnose. When a service encounters a problem during a preview conversation, you can open the Trace tab to see what went wrong. All error messages include a link to documentation covering possible causes, troubleshooting steps, and guidance on when to contact Salesforce Customer Support. This change doesn't affect end user-facing error messages.

Where: This change applies to Lightning Experience in Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions with Foundations or Agentforce 1 Editions. Setup for AI agents is available on the desktop site.

When: Improved error messages are available for an initial subset of platform services the week of August 3, 2026. We're continuing to expand error messages for services on a rolling basis.

How: Start a preview conversation with your agent in Agentforce Builder. When a platform service encounters an error, open the Trace tab to see the error message and a link to supporting documentation.
