# Get Started with Prompt Builder

With [Prompt Builder](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ai.prompt_builder_intro.htm), simplify your users’ daily tasks by integrating generative AI, powered by prompt templates, into workflows. [Create](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ai.prompt_builder_build_template.htm) and [Manage](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ai.prompt_builder_manage_prompt_templates.htm) prompt templates that incorporate your CRM data from merge fields that reference record fields, flows, related lists, and Apex. Enable generative experiences on record pages or build Agentforce actions to generate summaries, descriptions, and other field values.

On this page you can learn how to call a prompt template programmatically, batch process large numbers of prompt templates, and move prompt templates between orgs using metadata API.

## Access Prompt Templates Programmatically

### Connect API

Integrate third-party web applications with prompt templates using Connect REST API.

- _Connect REST API Developer Guide_: [Prompt Template Generations Resource](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.chatterapi.meta/chatterapi/connect_resources_prompt_template.htm)
- _Connect REST API Developer Guide_: [Prompt Template Generations Input (Request Body)](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.chatterapi.meta/chatterapi/connect_requests_einstein_prompt_template_generations_input.htm)
- _Connect REST API Developer Guide_: [Prompt Template Generations (Response Body)](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.chatterapi.meta/chatterapi/connect_responses_einstein_prompt_template_generations.htm)

### Connect in Apex

Use Connect in Apex to call a prompt template from Apex code.

- _Apex Developer Guide_: [Resolve a Prompt Template](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexcode.meta/apexcode/connectapi_examples_resolve_prompt_template.htm)
- _Apex Reference Guide_: [EinsteinLLM Class](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexref.meta/apexref/apex_ConnectAPI_EinsteinLLM_static_methods.htm)

### Invocable Actions

Use actions to call a prompt template from anywhere on the Salesforce Platform.

- _Actions Developer Guide_: [Generate Prompt Response Invocable Action](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_action.meta/api_action/actions_obj_generate_prompt_response.htm)

## Prompt Template Batch Processing

Asynchronously generate large quantities of responses for prompt templates using Prompt Template Batch Processing in Flow or Apex.

- _Apex Developer Guide_: [Prompt Template Batch Processing in Apex](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/ai/agentforce/prompt-template-batch-job.md)
- _Salesforce Help_: [Flow Core Action: Prompt Template Actions](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_ref_elements_actions_generate_prompt_response.htm&type=5)

## Move Prompt Templates with Metadata API

Use Metadata API to move prompt templates between sandbox and production orgs during the development process.

- _Metadata API Developer Guide_: [GenAiPromptTemplate](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_genaiprompttemplate.htm)
- _Metadata API Developer Guide_: [GenAiPromptTemplateActv](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_genaiprompttemplateactv.htm)
