Why is "Loading, Chunking, Vectorizing, and Storing" the correct answer?
Agentforce AI-powered search and retriever indexing requires data to be structured and optimized for retrieval. The Data Cloud preparation process involves:
Key Steps in the Data Preparation Process for Agentforce:
Loading Data
Raw text from documents, emails, chat transcripts, and Knowledge articles is loaded into Data Cloud.
Chunking (Breaking Text into Small Parts)
AI divides long-form text into retrievable chunks to improve response accuracy.
Example: A 1000-word article might be split into multiple indexed paragraphs.
Vectorization (Transforming Text for AI Retrieval)
Each text chunk is converted into numerical vector embeddings.
This enables faster AI-powered searches based on semantic meaning, not just keywords.
Storing in a Vector Database
The processed data is stored in a search-optimized vector format.
Agentforce AI retrievers use this data to find relevant responses quickly.
Why Not the Other Options?
❌ A. Real-time data ingestion and dynamic indexing
Incorrect because while real-time updates can occur, the primary process involves preprocessing and indexing first.
❌ B. Aggregating, normalizing, and encoding structured datasets
Incorrect because this process relates to data compliance and security, not AI retrieval optimization.
