Before you begin, make sure that the field that you want to use has a Field Generation prompt template and that it’s part of the collection of opportunity fields to generate suggestions for. See [Get Field Update Suggestions for Other Opportunity Fields](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.pipeline_mgmt_custom_fields.htm&language=en_US).

1. If the Update Fields Autonomously setting in the Pipeline Management section of the Agentforce for Sales Go setup page is turned on, turn it off.
    
    If you don’t turn off Update Fields Autonomously, your agent updates all fields that it generates suggestions for, not just the ones you specify.
2. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, search for Flows. In the Process Automation section, click **Flows**.
3. Select the active Process Field Update Suggestions flow and deactivate it.
4. Create a collection variable to contain the fields that you want the agent to update autonomously.
    1. Click **New Resource**.
    2. For the resource type, select **Variable**.
    3. Enter an API name for the variable. For example, FieldsForCustomAutonomousUpdates.
    4. For the data type, select **Text**.
    5. Select **Allow multiple values (collection)** and **Available for input**.
    6. Click **Done**.
5. Add an assignment element to specify the fields to include in the collection variable.
    
    Complete these steps for each field that you want the agent to update autonomously.
    
    1. Click **Add Assignment**.
    2. For the variable, select the collection variable that you created.
    3. For the operator, select **Add**, and enter the field’s API name.
6. Edit the Get or Execute Field Update Suggestion action element.
    
    For the Field API Names for Custom Autonomous updates parameter, select the collection variable that you created.
7. To make sure that you get the results that you want, [test the flow](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?language=en_US&id=platform.flow_concepts_testing.htm). Then, when you’re ready, save and activate it.
