Step 4: Setup Data Library

In this exercise, you’ll ingest Pronto support documentation (PDFs) so it can be searched and used for grounding later in the chapter.

You’ll create an Einstein Data Library and a Search Retriever so later prompts and agents can retrieve relevant chunks for grounding.

  1. In Setup, search for Data Libraries and select Agentforce Data Libraries.
  2. Click the New Library + button on the right.
  3. Enter the following values:
FieldValue

  1. Click Save.
  2. For Data type, select Files.
    TIP
    Data Libraries support multiple source types:
    • Files: Ingest documents like PDFs and index them for retrieval (best for playbooks, policies, FAQs).
    • Knowledge: Index Salesforce Knowledge articles so retrieval can ground answers in your Knowledge base.
    • Web: Crawl and index website pages (for example, a help center) to ground answers in published web content.
  3. Click Select Files... and select the 4 downloaded Pronto PDFs:
    • pronto-customer-support-playbook.pdf
    • pronto-delivery-and-order-lifecycle-faq.pdf
    • pronto-promotions-membership-and-gift-certificates-terms.pdf
    • pronto-merchant-and-storefront-standards.pdf
  4. Once selected click Upload.
