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: the inbox row signals, quick filters and sort, saved filters, keyboard triage, and bulk actions.
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.
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.
How a Support Ticket Works
How an AB Support ticket works: the AI answers first, then hands off to a human; plus the Open/Pending/Closed status categories, internal notes, the activity timeline, resolve/reopen reasons, and undelivered replies.
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.
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.
Managing Subscriptions, Billing & Licenses
How AB Projects pricing and licensing work: a free tier (first 10 active users per tenant) and a Basic plan ($3 per active user / month) purchased on Microsoft AppSource — including the activation page, assigning seats in Settings → Manage licenses, subscription status and history, free trials, and exactly what happens when you cancel or reduce seats.
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.
Built-in Automation
AB Projects has no if-this-then-that rule builder — the routine work is automated out of the box: status-driven progress, subtask roll-up, automatic Teams cards (tunable per event type per project), channel-driven membership sync, digests and reminders, and AI assists.
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.
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.
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.
