How Customers Reach You: Web Chat, Email & Forms

Customers reach your support desk three ways — an embeddable web chat widget, your support email inbox, and a “Contact us” web form. Every one of them becomes a ticket your team handles in Microsoft Teams.

The three channels

Web chat

A chat bubble you add to your website with one <script> tag. The AI replies in the widget; an agent’s reply shows up there too. See the web chat widget.

Support email

Mail sent to your support address — a shared mailbox like support@yourcompany.com — becomes a ticket; replies go back to the sender by email. See support email.

Web form

A hosted “Contact us” form (or your own form posting to AB Support). The reply is emailed to the address the visitor left. See web forms.
