Discover the Value of Salesforce Flow for Service

Watch this video to see how Salesforce Flow for Service streamlines your everyday case management processes. 

Get to Know the Actions & Recommendations Component

To use Salesforce Flow for Service, your Salesforce admin rolls out the feature to your org, complete with flows, quick actions, and recommendations built specifically for service agents. You can access these automated actions through the Actions & Recommendations component, which displays directly on your cases. Use this component to:

  • Access flows, quick actions, and recommendations.
  • Pause steps or actions tied to a case.
  • Avoid bumpy case transfers by viewing a case’s history from its History tab.
  • Know which steps are mandatory (marked with an asterisk), and which steps you can bypass.

Now that you understand the power behind automating tasks, use the Actions & Recommendations component to create a case.
