Data Retention and Export
How AB Projects retains data on Microsoft Azure: deletes are soft-deletes (no auto-purge, no self-serve restore window), change history and comments are preserved, and there is no built-in export yet — data export and recovery are handled as manual support requests.
Notification Preferences
What you can configure for AB Projects notifications: your personal task digest's delivery method (email/Teams) and schedule, in Settings → Task Reminders. Real-time Teams channel activity is automatic; per-event toggles, task following, per-task due reminders, and an in-app inbox don't exist yet.
Language and Locale Settings
AB Projects is localized into English, Japanese, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Korean, and Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), with Arabic and Russian on the Teams listing/bot. Set your language in the Settings tab; English is the fallback.
Editing Your Profile and Icon
Edit your AB Projects profile from the Settings tab: display name, profile icon, language, timezone, and email signature. Your name and icon are seeded from Microsoft 365 and appear in tasks, comments, mentions, and Teams Adaptive Cards.
Exporting and Accessing Project Data
AB Projects does not yet provide CSV/report export of task or project data. This article explains how data is preserved (per-task change history, the Teams channel record) and the ways to access it today (filtered views, MCP/AI queries, the scheduled digest).
Built-in Automation
AB Projects automates the routine work out of the box — status-driven progress, subtask roll-up, automatic Teams updates, channel-driven membership sync, and the scheduled digest. There is no custom if-this-then-that rule builder; this article explains what runs automatically.
Gantt Chart View and Timeline Tracking
Learn how the AB Projects Gantt view works: tasks with start/due dates shown as status-colored bars with progress, today and weekends highlighted, overdue styling, click to open the detail panel to change dates (logged with a reason), and filtering via the shared filter panel.
Notifications and Reminders
How notifications work in AB Projects: real-time Adaptive Card activity and @mentions in the linked Teams channel, plus a per-user scheduled digest of your top open tasks by email and/or Teams direct message, configured in personal Settings → Task Reminders.
