- Salesforce Agentforce recommends a Flow — not a native agent trigger — as the way to make an agent respond to events, passing data into the agent's prompt when a record is created or a case is updated.
- Email-to-Case and Web-to-Case convert inbound customer messages into case records, the same case-based mechanism the source flags as how airlines and other industries feed downstream automation.
Why it matters: Because Salesforce positions case-driven Flows as the recommended agent entry point, organizations adopting Agentforce inherit every existing Email-to-Case and Web-to-Case trigger as a path into AI agent execution — a coupling the article's title frames as a governance concern for legacy estates.
