## Action Details

To use this action, customize it according to your business’s security standards. We recommend configuring your agent to confirm the requester's identity before completing this action on their behalf. See [Maintain Trust with Agentforce Actions](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.service_agentforce_trusted_private_actions.htm&type=5&language=en_US).

This action initiates the secure creation of a case and moves the conversation from the AI agent to HR or Legal specialists using the Escalate Confidential Complaint flow.
