From Email-to-Case to the Boardroom: How Inherited Agents Break Governance Built for Software

Salesforce Agentforce allows Flows to trigger agents when case records are created or updated, and Email-to-Case and Web-to-Case features automatically create cases from customer messages. The article describes how chaining these standard, documented features together can create unintended governance issues.
