Explanation
For an Agentforce Service Agent to read, search, and surface Knowledge articles in conversations, two distinct permission grants are required: (1) 'Allow View Knowledge' - this is a specific Knowledge-related permission that enables a user/agent to access the Knowledge tab and article records, and (2) 'Access Knowledge records and fields' - this grants the agent the object-level and field-level access needed to actually read article content via SOQL and APIs. Together, these ensure the agent can both find and read Knowledge articles. Option A (Allow View Knowledge and Run Flows) is partially correct but substitutes 'Run Flows' for the records/fields access - Run Flows is a separate capability unrelated to reading Knowledge content. Option C (Access Custom Objects and Manage External Users) is entirely unrelated to Knowledge article access and would not resolve the issue.
