Discover the Highlights of TDX 2025

Each year, TDX brings developers, admins, and architects together to discover the latest innovations across the Salesforce ecosystem. This year’s event was jam-packed with hands-on workshops, dozens of demos, and hundreds of technical sessions that showcased how to build and deploy intelligent agents on the Salesforce Platform. We launched new products and platforms for developers, including AgentExchange, AgentforceDX, MuleSoft for Agentforce, and new AI-powered testing capabilities.

Didn’t attend TDX this year? Don’t worry, this blog post will give you all the highlights from TDX ’25 to help you enhance your workflows with autonomous AI agents.

You can also find the recorded TDX ’25 sessions on the Salesforce Developers YouTube channel.

Agentforce

Last year, we launched Agentforce, a unified platform for building, customizing, and deploying autonomous AI agents. At TDX ’25, we announced several new features for building, invoking, deploying, and sharing agents and agent actions.

You can learn about the new Agentforce developments in the TDX Main Keynote on Salesforce+. If you want to dive deeper, here are some highlights:

At TDX, we launched several new and exciting features and improvements to Agentforce. Today, you can get hands-on with the following Agentforce innovations:

Agent API: Programmatically interact with service agents and build headless agents using the Agent API. It’s a lightweight and agent-dedicated alternative to the Messaging for In-App and Web (MIAW) REST API.

AI Assist in Agent Builder: Create and customize agents with an AI-powered, low-code builder. Simply write a description of the agent, and we’ll help you build it with AI-powered topics and instructions that adhere to best practices, so that you can put your Agentforce agents into production with speed and confidence.

Agent Variables: Improve security and ensure consistent agent behavior using variables in filters and instructions, and as inputs for actions. Variables control how your agent uses topics and actions while providing conversation context.

Testing Center: Use batch testing to quickly assess your agent’s behavior against multiple scenarios in a single shot. You can even use generative AI to create test cases for you, reducing testing time-to-launch.

AgentExchange: Explore a trusted marketplace where you can list or buy ready-to-use Agentforce templates and actions. AgentExchange launched with more than 200 initial partners, and hundreds of ready-made actions — each having passed a rigorous security review.

MuleSoft for Agentforce: Retrieve data and act across hundreds of applications without writing (or maintaining) a single line of code. The MuleSoft Agentforce Connector enables continuous communication with Agentforce, maintaining sessions throughout your integrated workflows to enhance the accuracy and reliability of responses.

Multimodal Prompt Builder (Beta): Use images within prompt templates in Prompt Builder (available for select models). Ground your prompt with an image file in your prompt template, or pull specific file metadata from the Resource Picker. Use related lists to analyze attached images for a seamless experience.

Agent Surfaces (Beta): Deliver dynamic, interactive components and media that are channel- and device-specific. With Agent Surfaces, you can better customize how Agentforce shows up across different platforms.

Agentforce DX

This year, we also announced several new developer tools. The new Agentforce DX CLI extension provides pro-code tools to create and test agents outside of the Agent Builder UI. It helps you move agent metadata between your Salesforce DX project and your scratch orgs, sandboxes, and production orgs. Agentforce for Developers can now optimize and test Lightning web components. Best of all, you can try it all yourself with the new Salesforce Developer Edition org.

Ready to build and deploy your Agentforce agent with Agentforce DX? Take advantage of the following development tools and environments that streamline your experience with Agentforce:

New Developer Edition org: Salesforce Developer Edition orgs now include Agentforce and Data Cloud. For the first time ever, you can explore Salesforce’s latest AI and data technology in a dedicated environment that doesn’t expire.

Scratch orgs: Scratch orgs now support Agentforce and Prompt Builder. Start tinkering with your agent today in everyone’s favorite disposable development environment.

Agentforce DX (Beta): This suite of tools extends the Salesforce DX toolset to the world of AI agents. Now you can manage agent metadata in source control, use the Salesforce CLI and Agentforce DX extension to build and test, and integrate agent development into your existing DevOps processes. Switch effortlessly between low-code builders and pro-code tools for maximum flexibility.

Agent Invocable Actions: Now, you can enhance your Salesforce automations with agentic AI and use your Agentforce Service Agent or Agentforce (default) agent from a flow or Apex method thanks to agent invocable actions.

Custom Apex Actions with REST (Beta): You can now build custom agent actions using Apex REST. First, use generative AI to build an OpenAPI spec for Apex REST classes. Then, deploy the class, the OpenAPI document, and associated metadata to your org’s API catalog. You can use the class’s methods to create custom agent actions in Agent Builder.

Lightning Web Component Test Case Generation: You can quickly create Jest tests to put your LWC components through their paces. Using Agentforce for Developers, generating tests is as easy as a right-click on your component and selecting Agentforce: Generate an LWC Test.

Lightning Web Component Optimization (Developer Preview): This feature allows you to use Agentforce for Developers to improve accessibility (following WCAG guidelines) and automatically resolve TODO comments, boosting your development speed.
