Request Example Result Summarize Alex Parker's engagement for the last month. Generates a full summary of Alex Parker's program engagement over the past 30 days, including recent notes, benefit disbursements, and upcoming tasks. Tell me about Maria Carter. Generates a full summary of Maria Carter's program engagement over the default time range (90 days). Give me an overview of Jordan Bennett's interactions. Generates a targeted summary focused on Jordan Bennett's interaction records. Summarize what benefits Alex Parker received last week. Generates a targeted summary of Alex Parker's benefit disbursements from the past week.
Note When you don't specify a date range, the agent defaults to the last 90 days. To request a different time range, include specific time frames in your request, such as "last 30 days," "last 6 months," or "since March 1." - Review the generated summary.
The agent generates a participant summary based on your request and the available data for the specified time range.
Keep these guidelines in mind while using the Participant Summary subagent.
- Include keywords such as summarize, tell me about, overview, or how is [person] doing in your request to help the agent identify your intent.
- Clear your agent conversation history between participants to avoid confusion while switching context.
- The default data range is 90 days unless your admin has customized it. Specify a different range in your request if needed, such as "last 60 days" or "since January."
- The agent doesn't answer general Salesforce or FAQ-style questions.
- Specific questions about content within records aren’t yet supported. For example, "When did I last talk to Aaron about his resume?" isn’t supported.
- Links to records and citations aren’t included in the summary output.
- If a section has no data for the specified time range, the agent omits that section from the summary.
