Poor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/employee-onboarding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">employee onboarding<\/a> wastes time and money. Salesforce constantly evolves, and businesses must find better ways to onboard and train users in this software.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, companies delivered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/employee-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">employee training<\/a> using webinars, lengthy release notes, or e-newsletters. These methods often failed because users struggled to find or understand the information. The best approach now involves guiding users directly in the app while they work. Salesforce in-app guidance improves user engagement by offering this step-by-step support.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide explains Salesforce in-app guidance, explores different prompts, and shows how to create, test, and improve them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Salesforce in-app guidance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce In-App Guidance is a feature within Salesforce Lightning Experience that allows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/salesforce-administrator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">administrators<\/a> to create prompts and walkthroughs to assist users with onboarding, training, and feature adoption directly within the platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This no-code tool enables admins to write customized instructional content, define target audiences, and control when and where these guidance elements appear. It improves user engagement by providing real-time, contextual assistance to improve productivity and ease the learning curve for new and existing users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Salesforce in-app guidance prompts&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img height=\"553\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/What-are-the-key-components-of-Salesforce-AI-certifications_-1_9167ee69.jpg?w=1024&#038;h=553&#038;crop=1\" alt=\"Types of Salesforce in-app guidance prompts\" class=\"wp-image-19606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/What-are-the-key-components-of-Salesforce-AI-certifications_-1_9167ee69.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/What-are-the-key-components-of-Salesforce-AI-certifications_-1_9167ee69.jpg?resize=300,162 300w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/What-are-the-key-components-of-Salesforce-AI-certifications_-1_9167ee69.jpg?resize=1024,553 1024w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/What-are-the-key-components-of-Salesforce-AI-certifications_-1_9167ee69.jpg?resize=390,211 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce offers various in-app guidance prompts to help users navigate features, learn new functionalities, and enhance productivity. The main types include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Floating prompt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A floating prompt pops up anywhere on the screen, staying on top of the app to provide quick tips, reminders, or alerts without interrupting work. It helps users navigate features more easily. For example, a floating prompt can show how to pin a task to a list, making it easier to find later.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, these prompts improve user onboarding, boost <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/feature-adoption\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">feature adoption<\/a>, and enhance the overall experience. They guide users without disrupting workflows, allowing them to learn as they go. This reduces the need for extra training or support, making the app easier to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Targeted prompt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A targeted prompt floats on the screen and stays linked to a specific element, appearing close to it. This feature helps provide tips about buttons or other elements. For example, if a user learns how to create a calendar event, the prompt offers extra guidance on that task.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By appearing exactly where users need help, the prompt improves learning without disrupting workflow. It makes understanding new features easier, reducing confusion and the need for extra training. Offering help in the right place ensures users get the right information at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Docked prompt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A docked prompt appears in the bottom corner of the page, giving extra space for information, links, or videos related to a topic. It\u2019s a good option for sharing more learning details without cluttering the screen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users can minimize the prompt when they don\u2019t need it and maximize it when they do. This feature keeps the screen clean and organized while still providing helpful content when needed. It offers flexibility, adding value to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/user-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">user experience<\/a> without interrupting the workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Walkthrough<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/walkthroughs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Walkthroughs<\/a> help users more than the single prompts above. They can contain a series of up to ten prompts (either the same or different types) in sequence as the user clicks through them. Each prompt in a walkthrough has a \u2018Next\u2019 button, except for the last one, which has a \u2018Finish\u2019 button. The last prompt includes an optional action link instead of an action button.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even more, a walkthrough can show prompts across multiple pages, even on pages that appear only after the user completes an action. For example, a walkthrough can guide users through creating a list and linking it to an event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to create and set up Salesforce in-app guidance&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Setting up Salesforce in-app guidance depends on whether you need to create a single prompt or walkthroughs. The process for developing these is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating a prompt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To start creating a Salesforce in-app guidance prompt, you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to Setup and type \u2018In-App Guidance\u2019 in the Quick Find box, then select it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click \u2018Add\u2019 to open the In-App Guidance Builder in a new tab.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Choose the environment where you want to create the prompt.

If using Lightning Experience, select a custom theme color, then click \u2018Next.\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Enter the prompt title and body text. For floating or targeted prompts, add a label for the Dismiss button. You can also include optional images. For docked prompts, add text for the extra header and optionally embed a video.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To add a new step, click \u2018Add Step\u2019 in the In-App Guidance Builder header.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you switch between Setup and other apps in Lightning Experience, save when the step goes to an app with a different domain.

Here\u2019s how to refine them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Testing prompts and walkthroughs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Testing Salesforce prompts and walkthroughs ensure they work correctly, reach the right users, and guide them through the platform. This also improves user experience and adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To start testing, open the Quick Find box, search for \u2018In-App Guidance\u2019, and select it. In the settings, click \u2018Start Testing\u2019 to check how prompts and walkthroughs function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, navigate different Lightning pages or apps to see how they appear in the right context. Depending on your needs, choose whether to test simple prompts or walkthroughs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a more accurate test, log in as a specific user. This lets you see exactly how the prompts and walkthroughs appear from their perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A\/B testing and iteration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A\/B testing improves Salesforce In-App Guidance by comparing different variations of prompts and walkthroughs to find the most effective approach. Start by setting clear goals. Decide whether you want to increase engagement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/user-adoption\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">user adoption<\/a>, or productivity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Form a hypothesis about expected changes and choose key performance indicators (KPIs) to track success. Create different versions, split traffic randomly, and track user interactions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monitor results, analyze data, and apply the best changes. Keep testing and documenting findings to improve future guidance strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Monitoring usage and engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To track usage and engagement for Salesforce In-App Guidance, open the In-App Guidance page in \u2018Setup.\u2019 This page shows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/digital-adoption\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">digital adoption<\/a> and engagement metrics for each prompt or walkthrough. It includes the number of views and the percentage of users who complete the guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For deeper insights, create custom report types using the \u2018Prompt Actions\u2019 object. These reports help analyze how users interact with prompts and highlight areas for improvement. Include key fields such as the last display date, last result, name, and user\u2019s full name. Track how often users see, dismiss, or act on a prompt. For walkthroughs, calculate progress by dividing the step number by the total step count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drive better user engagement and experience with Salesforce in-app guidance&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce In-app guidance helps users learn new software quickly and efficiently. It provides real-time, on-screen help, making it easier to understand new features and workflows. Users experience a shorter learning curve and adopt new tools faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional training often costs a lot and takes time. With in-app guidance, users learn while working, eliminating the need for lengthy classroom sessions. Immediate assistance allows them to complete tasks faster and less frustrated, boosting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/employee-productivity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">employee productivity<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Customizable prompts and walkthroughs create a more personal experience by addressing specific user needs. Organizations collect feedback to refine the guidance over time. To be effective, guidance should stay clear, focus on key tasks, and deliver easy-to-understand information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Organizational success depends on attracting and keeping top talent, and onboarding plays a key part.
