Ensure Record Detail Pages Contain Einstein Insights

Before we dive deeper, let’s ensure our new lead record detail pages include insights so we can show Belle the key factors behind Einstein scores.

On detail pages in Lightning Experience, the lead score appears in the Einstein component. The component also shows sales reps which lead fields have the greatest positive (1) or negative (2) influence on its score. Fields that aren’t listed in the Einstein component still influence the score, but less than the fields listed.

Check the Lead Record Page for the Einstein component.

1. Click the setup cog  and then select Setup.
2. In Quick Find, type Lightning App Builder, then select Lightning App Builder under User Interface.
3. Click Edit next to the Lead Record Page.
4. Verify that the Einstein component is displayed on the right-hand side of the page Lead Record Page. Click Save.
5. Once your changes are saved, click the Back button.

1. Click the App Launcher  and click Sales.
2. Click the Leads tab.
3. Click your lead, Biff Jurkey.
