Filtering Tasks and Saved Filters
How task filters work in AB Projects: every condition the filter panel offers, saving a filter set you reuse, sharing a filtered view as a link, and why filters stick between visits.
Task Dependencies: Blocked By and Blocks
How task dependencies work in AB Projects: add predecessors from the task that is waiting, read the automatic Blocks mirror, understand why an unmet predecessor warns rather than blocks, and how an AI assistant can set dependencies over MCP.
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.
Working the Ticket Queue
How to scan, filter, and work the AB Support ticket queue: new tickets appearing on their own, the inbox row signals, compact rows, long queues, quick filters and sort, saved filters, keyboard triage, Next ticket after resolving, and bulk actions.
Your Customer Store
Everyone who contacts your AB Support desk becomes a customer record, matched by email or phone number depending on the channel, so returning people bring their history. When one person arrives as two records, an agent can merge them. It's AB Support's own store, separate from the AB Sales CRM.
How a Support Ticket Works
How an AB Support ticket works: the AI answers first and holds the ticket until it hands off to a human; plus the Needs us / Waiting on customer / Finished status categories, the suggested reply (including drafts from AI assistants), internal notes, the activity timeline, resolve reasons and Next ticket, and undelivered replies.
AB Support: Overview
AB Support is AI-assisted customer service your team works from Microsoft Teams, Outlook or a web browser — customers reach you by web chat, email, forms, WhatsApp and SMS; tickets land in one queue. The hub for every AB Support help page.
AB Sales Troubleshooting
Answers to the most common AB Sales questions — an empty Contacts tab, being unable to add leads, missing workspaces, email that won't send, sample data, and sign-in issues.
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.
Agents: CRM Automation
The Agent is the automation engine that finds missing websites, extracts contact emails, sends your campaign emails, and drafts AI replies when leads respond — on a 5-minute timer, with strict verification, human review, and daily caps. This article covers each stage, how to pause, and how to opt out a single lead.
CRM Settings
Everything on the CRM Settings page — the workspace currency, the mailbox it sends from, the intake key for your website form and API, the material the AI writes with, and your labels. Automation, the daily email cap, the notification channel and templates now live on the Agents page. Everyone can see settings; only Owners and Admins can change them.
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 created — typed in, imported from CSV, or sent from your own website form or API.
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 55 MCP tools ActionBridge gives AI assistants — ab_* for AB Projects (tasks, schedule, Documents, project statuses and types), ab_crm_* for AB Sales (leads, labels, opportunities, activities, email), and ab_support_* for AB Support (tickets, triage, draft replies) — plus the slash-command prompts, resource feeds, which tools need a license, and which writes post a Microsoft Teams card.
AI Support Features in AB Projects
Every AI capability in AB Projects today: dashboard greeting, task summary, suggested subtasks, task extraction from meeting recordings, the Teams bot's commands and conversational answers, the digest's Today's focus note, and MCP assistants — all clearly disclosed, none acting without you.
I Can't See My Tasks
Tasks not showing in AB Projects? It's almost always a remembered filter, the wrong project or view (Gantt needs dates), or Teams-channel membership that hasn't synced — and if you can see tasks but not create them, it's a license seat, not a bug.
Notification Preferences
How to control what AB Projects sends you: the personal task digest in Settings, per-task deadline reminders, following tasks with the in-app notification bell, and the project-wide Teams channel notification toggles for owners and admins.
Editing Your Profile and Icon
How to change your AB Projects display name, profile photo, language, and timezone in the Settings tab. Your profile starts as a copy of your Microsoft 365 identity, then is edited independently inside AB Projects.
Exporting and Accessing Project Data
AB Projects has no CSV/Excel export of task or project data yet. How your data is preserved (per-task change history, the Teams channel record) and how to get it out today: filtered views, AI assistants over MCP, and asking support.
Gantt Chart View and Timeline Tracking
How the AB Projects Gantt view works: tasks with start and due dates become status-colored bars with progress fill and dependency arrows; today and weekends are highlighted, and the chart opens where your open work is. Bars aren't draggable by design — every date change carries a reason into the task's change history and the Teams channel, which a drag can't record.
Daily Digest and AI Assistance
The AB Projects daily digest is sent to you, not written by you: up to 10 open tasks by due date, on the weekdays and time you set, by email and/or Teams — plus per-task deadline reminders and the AI assists you use during the day.
Notifications and Reminders
The three notification types in AB Projects: real-time Adaptive Card activity in the linked Teams channel (with per-project category toggles), a scheduled top-10 task digest by email or Teams chat, and one-shot per-task deadline reminders set with the task's bell.
Using Tabs for Task Management
Manage tasks from the AB Projects channel tab in Microsoft Teams: List, Gantt, and Kanban views, creating tasks, the slide-in detail panel, comments with mentions, remembered filters, and how every change is logged with a reason and posted to the channel.
Adding or Removing Members
How people join and leave an AB Projects project: the linked Teams channel is the roster — auto-sync adds the whole channel, the Team page invite covers stragglers, and removing someone for good means removing them from the channel too.
Task Statuses and Workflows
Manage task workflow in AB Projects by changing status, updating progress, completing tasks, and reviewing work by status in Kanban view.
Subtasks and Task Hierarchy
Break large tasks into manageable subtasks in AB Projects. Create new subtasks, attach existing tasks, use AI suggestions, review progress from the parent task, and see when to use a dependency instead.
Task Comments and Mentions
Add task comments in AB Projects, use rich-text formatting, mention project members in Teams notifications, and review or manage the resulting discussion.
Setting Due Dates and Priorities
Set task priority, start dates, and due dates in AB Projects. Learn where dates and priority appear, how to edit them, and why changes ask for a reason.
Creating and Editing Tasks
Learn how to create, find, review, and edit tasks in AB Projects, including task fields, change reasons, comments, subtasks, linked documents, and reminders.
Creating Your First Task
Create your first task in AB Projects: open Tasks, enter the title and useful details, assign the work, save it, and continue from the task detail panel.
