Take Trailhead Learning beyond the browser

Salesforce Trailhead is a great way to learn Agentforce. You can level up this experience by connecting your Trailhead org to Salesforce CLI and working with AgentScript metadata locally in VS Code. Here’s a quick setup flow for connecting a Trailhead Agentforce org to Salesforce CLI 👇

Prerequisites:
• VS Code
• Salesforce CLI installed
• Trailhead org with Agentforce enabled

Step 1. Open your Trailhead org

Launch the Trailhead playground or developer org that you want to connect.

Step 2. Find your username

Profile → Settings

Step 3. Set password (if not set already)

Settings → Change My Password

Step 4. Connect org via CLI

Authenticate via browser, setting up alias for the org and providing your Trailhead org url:

# Authenticate with your Trailhead org

sf org login web --alias your-org-alias --instance-url https://your-org-name.develop.my.salesforce.com

Step 5. Verify connection

Confirm that the org was added successfully:

sf org list

Step 6. Set the default org

To avoid specifying the org in every command, set it as the default target:

sf config set target-org your-org-alias

Important: Use the Correct Login URL

Trailhead org URLs used for login usually look like:

https://your-org-name.develop.my.salesforce.com

NOT:
• login.salesforce.com
• develop.lightning.force.com

Once connected, you can retrieve AgentScript metadata locally in VS Code, experiment faster, and work with Agentforce in a more development-oriented workflow.
