Snowflake as RAG. Cases Resolved Instantly.
GPTfy routes Salesforce case questions through Snowflake Cortex to find the exact document answer — then delivers it inside the case record, no additional license required.
Support reps no longer manually search technical documentation to answer case questions. GPTfy sends the case description to Snowflake Cortex, retrieves the relevant document, and surfaces an accurate, document-grounded AI answer directly inside the Salesforce case record.
What this demo covers
Snowflake Cortex Retrieval
- Case description is extracted and sent to Snowflake Cortex for semantic document search.
- Cortex identifies the most relevant document from your Snowflake knowledge store automatically.
Document-Grounded AI Answers
- The retrieved document is attached to the AI prompt before processing — not general knowledge.
- Answers reference your actual product specifications, runbooks, or policy documents directly.
Salesforce-Native Workflow
- The entire RAG retrieval and AI generation cycle happens inside the Salesforce case record.
- Support reps receive the answer in a readable format without leaving Salesforce.
No Additional License
- No additional platform license is required to connect Snowflake as a RAG source.
- GPTfy connects via standard API credentials through its API Data Source configuration.
Use this video when
A support rep receives a product specification question and needs the exact answer from a technical manual stored in Snowflake
A service team stores owner manuals, runbooks, and policy documents in Snowflake and wants them accessible from Salesforce cases
A support manager wants to standardize case resolution by grounding AI answers in official documentation rather than general AI knowledge
A Salesforce admin wants to enable RAG-powered case resolution without migrating documents into Salesforce Knowledge
A compliance-sensitive organization needs AI answers that cite specific internal documents rather than making inferences
An engineering team wants to reuse their existing Snowflake document store as a knowledge source for Salesforce support workflows
Frequently asked questions
When a support rep runs a GPTfy prompt on a Salesforce case, the API Data Source component extracts the case description and sends it to Snowflake Cortex. Cortex identifies the most relevant document from your knowledge store, returns that document to GPTfy, which then attaches it to the AI prompt for processing and delivers the answer inside the Salesforce case record.
The demo shows product owner manuals stored as documents in Snowflake. Any structured or semi-structured knowledge content can be stored and indexed — technical specifications, support runbooks, product guides, compliance documents, and policy materials. Snowflake Cortex handles the semantic search and retrieval.
Salesforce Knowledge Articles live inside Salesforce and require manual curation within the platform. Snowflake RAG allows you to store your knowledge in Snowflake — where you may already maintain technical documentation — and retrieve it semantically without migrating content into Salesforce. Both approaches can be used together through GPTfy.
No. As shown in the demo, this entire workflow — from case question to Snowflake Cortex retrieval to AI-generated answer inside Salesforce — operates without any additional platform license. GPTfy connects to Snowflake via its API Data Source feature using standard credentials.
Because the answer is grounded in the actual retrieved document rather than generated from general AI knowledge, responses are highly specific to your product or service. In the demo, the AI correctly cites the exact towing capacity specification from the owner manual stored in Snowflake, not a generalized estimate.
Yes. The RAG pattern works across any Salesforce object. A sales rep could retrieve product specifications, pricing guidelines, or competitive briefs stored in Snowflake directly from an opportunity record. The prompt and data source configuration determines which documents are retrieved for which workflows.
