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.
Plans, Pricing, and Your Lead Allowance
AB Sales is priced by how many new leads you add, not by how many people use it. Your first 100 leads are free, a plan adds 1,000 new leads a month, and the allowance is shared across every workspace in your organization.
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.
The AB Support Dashboard
A desk opens on an interactive dashboard — in Teams or the web app. Its metric tiles are clickable and open the ticket list filtered to exactly those tickets. Which tiles click through, which don't, and how to read the numbers.

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.
Why AB Projects Requires Microsoft Graph Permissions
Every permission AB Projects asks for, mapped to the feature it powers: organization-wide Microsoft Graph permissions an administrator consents to in Entra ID (mostly delegated), and the team permissions a team owner accepts per team, including the 2.4.0 one that lets thread replies sync to tasks.
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.
Who Can See What?
Visibility in AB Projects is decided by project membership: every member sees all of the project's tasks, comments, subtasks, and history. Roles (Owner/Admin/Member/Viewer) control what you can change, not what you can see — there are no private tasks. To hide work, use a separate channel and project.
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.
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.
Integration with Microsoft Teams and Adaptive Cards
How AB Projects and Microsoft Teams fit together as one system: the one-to-one channel–project link, the tab, Adaptive Card posts with two-way thread sync, the chip-picker mention model, and Microsoft SSO with channel-driven membership.
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.
Installing the AB Projects Teams App
How to install AB Projects in Microsoft Teams: add the app from the Teams app store or Microsoft Marketplace, then add the channel tab to link a channel to a project — with automatic Microsoft 365 sign-in, project types, the included bot, and licensing basics.
Managing Project Settings
A tour of the AB Projects project settings page: identity, members, Teams channel notification toggles, GitHub integration, task workflow options, the Teams link, ownership transfer, leaving, and the unlink-before-delete rule.
Role-Based Access Control
The four project roles in AB Projects — Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer — what each can do, how roles are changed, the guardrails around ownership and the last Admin, and how the read-only Viewer role differs from having no license seat.
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.
Understanding Projects and Teams
What a project is in AB Projects: a shared workspace of tasks, wiki, and documents tied one-to-one to a Microsoft Teams channel, with membership synced from the channel and four roles — Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer.
