@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client(Beta)

Beta: This package is currently in beta. APIs and behavior may change in future releases.

The Agentforce Conversation Client SDK enables embedding the Agentforce chat experience for employee agents into external applications.

Overview

This library embeds the Agentforce Conversation Client for employee agents using Lightning Out 2.0.

Prerequisites

• One of salesforceOrigin or frontdoorUrl is required.
• Use salesforceOrigin when your app is hosted inside a Salesforce org and already has an authenticated session.
• Use frontdoorUrl when embedding the chat client outside Salesforce (for example, a localhost or external app).
• Lightning Out 2.0 uses an existing session to initialize; without it, the embed will fail to start.

Installation

npm install @salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client

Usage

Basic Embedding

import { embedAgentforceClient } from "@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client";

const { loApp, chatClientComponent } = embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
});

With agentId and agentLabel

import { embedAgentforceClient } from "@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client";

const { loApp, chatClientComponent } = embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    agentId: "AGENT_ID_FROM_ORG",
    agentLabel: "My Agent",
  },
});

With rendering modes

import { embedAgentforceClient } from "@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client";

// Floating (default)
embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    renderingConfig: { mode: "floating", showHeaderIcon: true },
  },
});

// Inline (width/height configurable)
// The parent container must have an explicit height for inline mode to fill properly.
embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    renderingConfig: { mode: "inline", width: 420, height: 600 },
  },
});

// Inline filling the parent container
embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    renderingConfig: { mode: "inline", width: "100%", height: "100%" },
  },
});

Header visibility (headerEnabled)

In inline mode, the header is hidden by default. Set headerEnabled: true to show it. In floating mode, the header is always visible regardless of this setting.

embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    agentLabel: "My Agent",
    renderingConfig: {
      mode: "inline",
      width: "100%",
      height: "100%",
      headerEnabled: true,
    },
  },
});

Show Agentforce header icon (showHeaderIcon)

By default, the header icon is hidden when showHeaderIcon is not set.

import { embedAgentforceClient } from "@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client";

embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    renderingConfig: {
      mode: "floating",
      showHeaderIcon: true, // set false (or omit) to hide the header icon
    },
  },
});

Theming with styleTokens

Use agentforceClientConfig.styleTokens to theme the Agentforce Conversation Client. You do not need to provide all tokens—only the ones you want to override. Tokens are grouped by UI area:

Example

import { embedAgentforceClient } from "@salesforce/agentforce-conversation-client";

const { loApp, chatClientComponent } = embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  agentforceClientConfig: {
    styleTokens: {
      headerBlockBackground: "#7B2CBF",
      headerBlockTextColor: "#ffffff",
    },
  },
});

  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
  appId: "18_DIGIT_SALESFORCE_ID",
});

Listening for Events

const { loApp } = embedAgentforceClient({
  container: "#agentforce-container",
  salesforceOrigin: "https://myorg.my.salesforce.com",
});

loApp.addEventListener("lo.application.ready", () => {
  console.log("Lightning Out 2.0 is ready");
});

loApp.addEventListener("lo.component.ready", (event) => {
  console.log("Component ready:", event.detail.componentName);
});

loApp.addEventListener("lo.application.error", (event) => {
  console.error("Error:", event.detail);
});

API

embedAgentforceClient(options)

Embeds the Agentforce Conversation Client by creating a Lightning Out 2.0 app and chat wrapper under the provided container. In floating mode, the chat is displayed as a fixed overlay; in inline mode, it renders within the container layout.

Note: The embed is initially hidden and becomes visible after the chat wrapper dispatches the accready event.
