#Trailhead Support
Hi Trailblazer Community,
I faced an issue during my Salesforce Certification Exam on 21 Oct 2026. The proctor informed me that my face was not visible on their screen, even though my webcam and internet connection were working properly on my side.
Due to this issue, my exam was cancelled. I was ready to take the exam, and I did not notice any problems with my camera or network connection.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Could you please guide me on how to resolve this problem and reschedule or retake my exam?
I would appreciate any suggestions or guidance from the community.
Thank you for your help!
Regards,
Shunmuga Vicknesh I

Please create a case with support -
https://help.salesforce.com/s/casesGetting Challenge not yet complete in Agentforce Builder Org
Whoops, looks like there was a problem. Please try again. Tried with 2 different orgs, same error.
Build a Service Agent with Agentforce Builder Tools
Everything in the org looks good. Agent preview works as expected. Community site published and the agent there works as expected.
Update (April 30, 2026. 9AM EST): Salesforce trailhead support team mentioned they are aware of the issue and is working on fixing it on the case I created. Looks like we just have to wait for it to be fixed.
Update (April 30, 2026. 3:30PM EST): Issue is resolved, reverifying with same org worked.
Wait for 3 to 4 hours and then verify the challenge. It should work.
Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on the Use Employee Agents to Get Work Done module in Trailhead, specifically the “Help a Guest Out of a Soggy Situation” step.
I’m stuck because I’m unable to see or access the Employee Agent panel icon that the instructions mention.
Here’s what I’ve already tried:
- Restarted the lab multiple times
- Refreshed the browser
- Followed all steps exactly as described in the module
- Waited to ensure the org is fully loaded
Despite this, the icon to open the Employee Agent panel is still not visible.
Has anyone else faced this issue? Is there something I might be missing (like permissions, setup steps, or a delay in agent activation)?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

@yaswitha chinni that panel is the Agentforce button in the Lightning header, not a tab. It only shows in the app the unit opened, for the user on that special org, after the org finishes provisioning.
Restarting the lab gives you a new org. If you then open Setup, or an older playground you already had, the button is not there. Launch again from the unit, land in the app it names, and look at the header.
If the header still has no Agentforce button after the org has sat for a few minutes, provisioning did not finish. Launch a fresh one from that same unit. Refreshing Setup will not add the button.
Hello Team,
I first created a Trailhead account successfully. After that, I wanted to participate in the Journey to Salesforce (J2S) program, so I visited the following registration page:
https://developer.salesforce.com/journey-to-salesforce
I have attached a screenshot of the registration form. After completing the registration, I expected to receive a confirmation email at my Outlook email address, but I have not received any email yet. I have also attached a screenshot showing this issue.
Could you please let me know:
Thank you for your support. I look forward to your response.

Hi everyone!
For past three weeks I had troubles with scheduling and paying for Salesforce exam.
First, I tried to schedule exam and my payment failed, tried to use another card, it failed again. After this strike Pearson blocked my account.
It took me a whole week to unlock it with a help of Salesforce Support.
Once unlocked, I noticed that I am still unable to pay (I contacted my bank, they say there was no payment request, card has money on it and I never had any troubles with paying using this card).
The only message once payment failed I get is
"Uh oh! We're unable to process your payment. Please call your card issuer for further details".
Salesforce Support suggested me buying voucher and paying for exam using voucher.
Frankly, here I faced another problem of not being able to reach the site where I can buy vouchers:
Cleared cache, cookies, tried from anonymous window.
Tried using Visa and Mastercard.
Not using any VPN.
Tried using VPN.
Nothing.
Contacting Pearson support unfortunately is not quite pleasant experience.
Moreover, to talk to their support I have to use paid phone line, which makes it even more
ridiculous: I have to pay them to help me pay for the exam.
I still have Salesforce Support ticket open, but it takes them a while to reply and all the advices I am getting are: reload, clear cache, use anonymous window... This does not help.
I am really tired and will appreciate any kind of help.
Thank You.

@shefali tanwar Salesforce has moved to trailhead academy to manage its certifications and test taker is Pearson now.
Module: Custom Metadata Types Basics
Unit: Use Custom Metadata Types in Formulas, Default Values, and Validation Rules
Hands-On Org Name: CRM Training
Error Message:
"An unexpected error occurred while inserting or updating test records and we couldn't check your work. Make sure account and opportunity records can be inserted and updated in this org, and click 'Check Challenge' again. If this continues, contact the Trailhead Help team."
Description:
The automated verification script is failing with an unexpected error when attempting to insert/update test Account and Opportunity records in my playground . Please assist in resolving or clearing the backend check state for this org.
#Trailhead Support #Trailhead Challenges #Salesforce Admin #Salesforce Developer
This looks like a Trailhead verification/backend issue. Please first verify that Account and Opportunity records can be created and updated manually, and check that no Validation Rules, Flows, Triggers, or permissions are blocking these operations. If everything works correctly in the Playground but the challenge still fails, I’d recommend contacting Trailhead Support to check the backend verification state.
Hope This Helps!!
I have completed Journey2Salesforce as you can see in the screenshot there is no superbadge visible under trailmix 4a so apparently it is showing completed but I didn't got the completion mail neither eligible for certification voucher. Raised a case with trailhead but no response

For a Template-Triggered Prompt Flow using the 'Service Email Summary Template Capability,' the only input available is plain Email Content text — no Case ID or record reference. Is there any way to also pass in a Case record or its fields with this specific flow type and capability, or is that a hard limitation?
#Trailhead Support #Flow #Prompt Builder #Einstein For Service
your read is correct here - this is a hard limitation, not something that you are missing in the config.
Standard capability templates have a fixed input defined by the feature that invokes them. Einstein Email Summaries fires against the email itself, so the capability hands the template the email content and nothing else.
So the way I see it you have two options here:
Option 1 - you may be able to parse the Case Id from the email text. If your org uses ref ID threading for Email-to-Case, then the case id would be in the email body, and you can use the prompt flow to parse it out.
Option 2 - build a Flex template instead. Flex templates let you define your own inputs, so you can pass the Case record and use it how you please. You can use this through a quick action / screen flow / agent action / apex - whatever works for you.
Let me know if that makes sense
Thanks
Steve
I'm struggling with this but I cannot seem to find any trailhead resource on taking a user's personalized email signature and editing it to include images. Any resources would be helpful.
#Trailhead Challenges #Trailhead #Salesforce Admin #Sales Cloud #Trailhead Support
Hi @Scott Holmes -
You can add images to a personalized Salesforce email signature. In Lightning, upload the image to Files, create a Public Link, copy the image address, then go to Settings → Email > My Email Settings and add the image using an <img src="..."> tag in the Email Signature field.
Salesforce has an official step-by-step guide here: Add an image to an email signature in Salesforce
One important limitation: this works for HTML emails. If you are using a Lightning Email Template, the personal signature isn't automatically added; the signature needs to be handled in the template using the appropriate merge field/template approach.
