AI Associate AI Fundamentals Practice Question
A sales representative uses Einstein Activity Capture to log emails automatically. However, some critical emails are not being captured. What is the most likely reason?
⚠ Common exam trap
Salesforce often tests the misconception that Einstein Activity Capture requires a specific email client (like Outlook or Gmail), but the real limitation is the Salesforce user license requirement for the sender or recipient.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The sender or recipient is not a Salesforce user with a license.
Einstein Activity Capture relies on Salesforce user licenses to associate email activities with records. If the sender or recipient is not a licensed Salesforce user, the system cannot link the email to a user identity, causing it to be skipped during capture. This is the most common reason for missing emails because the feature is designed to log activities only for licensed users.
