Where an Escalated Ticket Goes
When the AI can't answer, it routes the ticket to CS, Tech or Product with a one-line reason and a draft reply. What routing is, what it isn't, and why a routed ticket still needs someone to claim it.
Your Personal Settings
Your personal AB Support settings — profile, language, timezone, and the opt-in ticket digest email — how they differ from a desk's admin-only settings, and why the digest has its own Save button.
Working the Ticket Queue
How to scan, filter, and work the AB Support ticket queue: the inbox row signals, quick filters and sort, saved filters, keyboard triage, and bulk actions.
Assigning Tickets to Your Team
How to assign a support ticket to a teammate so a real team can divide the work, plus how assignment differs from AI-vs-human handling.
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.
Web Forms: Turning "Contact Us" into Tickets
A Contact us web form becomes a ticket; the reply is emailed to the visitor. Use the hosted form or POST your own to the endpoint — and note the mailbox it needs to reply.
AB Support Settings
Two things are called settings in AB Support: your personal settings (language, timezone, ticket digest) and a desk's admin-only settings (members, channels, statuses, knowledge sources), reached from the gear inside the desk.
How a Support Ticket Works
How an AB Support ticket works: the AI answers first, then hands off to a human; plus the Needs us / Waiting on customer / Finished status categories, internal notes, the activity timeline, resolve reasons, and undelivered replies.
How Customers Reach You
The five ways customers reach your AB Support desk — web chat, support email, web forms, WhatsApp and SMS — how each becomes a ticket, and what setting each one up actually takes, including US number registration.
