Campaigns: Multi-Step Email Sequences
A campaign is an ordered sequence of emails the Agent sends a lead over time, stopping the moment they reply. Covers entry filters, steps and wait days, priority, what ends a sequence, and why nothing sends until a campaign exists.
Importing and Exporting Leads (CSV)
Bring leads into AB Sales from a CSV file or export your whole lead list — including labels, funnel stage, and AI research. Covers the template, duplicate detection, and which columns import.
AB Support — Reviewer & Publisher Reference
Reference for Microsoft store reviewers: what AB Support does, an end-to-end test path, and why each requested permission is needed.
Who Can See Your Tickets and Customers
Who has access to an AB Support desk's tickets and customers — desk membership, and why one desk (or another AB product) can never see another's data.
Installing AB Support in Teams
How to add AB Support to a Microsoft Teams channel and turn it into a working support desk. Your agents work in Teams; your customers never touch it.
Your Customer Store
Everyone who contacts your AB Support desk becomes a customer record, recognized by email so returning people bring their history. It's AB Support's own store, separate from the AB Sales CRM.
Turning Support Email into Tickets
Connect your support mailbox so email becomes tickets and replies go back by email. Needs a one-time Microsoft 365 admin consent — here's the setup.
Labels: Tagging and Segmenting Leads
Labels are colored tags you attach to leads to segment your pipeline by temperature, size, or industry. Every workspace ships with a default set, the AI can auto-apply them, and you can filter and group by label.
Research with AI
Research with AI enriches a lead — finds its website, reads the homepage, and fills in a company summary, contact email, and suggested labels. It does not move the lead through the funnel.
Sending Email from AB Sales
How AB Sales sends email — in plain terms. It sends from your own company mailbox through Microsoft 365, set up once by your admin. Covers the sending identity, choosing a mailbox, templates, campaigns, and deliverability.
How the AB Sales Funnel Works
How a lead moves through the AB Sales funnel — Lead → Contact → Opportunity → Customer — what advances each stage, and why AI research enriches a lead without moving it.
Agents: CRM Automation
The Agent is the automation engine that finds missing websites, extracts contact emails from company pages, and sends your campaign emails — on a 5-minute timer, with strict verification and daily caps. This article covers each stage, how to pause, and how to opt out a single lead.
Contacts
A Contact is a person attached to a Lead or Customer in AB Sales. Adding a contact to a lead advances it to the Contact stage. One parent can carry many contacts — the buyer, the technical reviewer, the decision-maker.
Leads: Capturing and Qualifying Prospects
A Lead is a prospect you haven't yet established a relationship with. This article covers the status pipeline (New, Information filled, Contacted, Qualified, Disqualified), how the AI Get URL button works, and how leads get filled in manually or by the Agent.
Customers
A Customer is an established account in AB Sales — usually converted from a won lead. Customers carry multiple Contacts and Opportunities and can be archived without losing history.
MCP Tools Reference
All 40 MCP tools ActionBridge gives AI assistants — ab_* for AB Projects (tasks, schedule, Documents) and ab_crm_* for AB Sales (leads, opportunities, activities, email) — plus the slash-command prompts, resource feeds, which tools need a license, and which writes post a Microsoft Teams card.
SSO and Microsoft Login
AB Projects has no password of its own — you sign in with your Microsoft 365 work or school account through Microsoft Entra ID SSO, in Teams or at blz.actionbridge.io. Any organization can sign in; personal Microsoft accounts cannot (error AADSTS50020). Includes what to check when sign-in fails.
Inviting Team Members via Microsoft Teams
There are no email invites in AB Projects — adding someone to the linked Microsoft Teams channel is the invite. How automatic onboarding works, what happens on a person's first open, the manual invite option, guests, and how seats are granted.
