This section describes the Salesforce Streaming API agent. The agent is a processing agent for real-time workflow configurations allowing you to subscribe to Salesforce topics, events and receive messages. 

The Salesforce Streaming API agent can be used to connect to Salesforce as a client and listen to changes on specific objects. This allows the workflow to receive requests in real-time from Salesforce for creating/updating/deleting users, for example.

The agent uses the Salesforce Streaming API.
