Filtering Tasks and Saving Views
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.
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.
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.
Rating the AI's Answers
Customers can rate the AI's answers with a thumbs up or down; the score rolls up to a helpfulness percentage on your dashboard so you can track and improve answer quality.
The AB Support Dashboard
The AB Support tab opens on an interactive dashboard: 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.
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 (channels, statuses, knowledge, members and roles), reached from inside the desk.
Support Desks: Your Workspace per Channel
A desk is your AB Support workspace for one Teams channel — its own tickets, customers and settings, independent of AB Projects and AB Sales. Here's how one is created.
The Channel Tab and Notifications
The AB Sales channel tab gives your whole team one shared pipeline, and posts notifications to the channel when leads and customers are created. What everyone sees, and why it's the same for all members.
Sending Email from AB Sales
How AB Sales sends email — in plain terms. It sends from your own company mailbox through Microsoft 365, set up once by your admin. Covers the sending identity, choosing a mailbox, templates, campaigns, and deliverability.
Installing the AB Sales Teams App
How to install AB Sales in Microsoft Teams — as a personal app for your own pipeline and as a channel tab for a pipeline your whole team shares.
Linking Documents to Tasks and Finding Pages
Learn how to find project documents and create bidirectional links between documents and tasks in ActionBridge.
Teams Channel and Project Linking in AB Projects
How AB Projects links each Microsoft Teams channel one-to-one with a project: the link is made when the tab is added, membership syncs from the channel roster automatically, and comments flow between task and channel thread.
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.
Images or Files Won't Upload
Image won't upload in AB Projects? Uploads are images embedded via the editor (comments, descriptions) and the profile/project icon pickers — icons are capped at 2 MB — stored in AB's own cloud storage, not OneDrive/SharePoint. Check format, size, session, and network.
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.
SSO and Microsoft Login
AB Projects has no password of its own — you sign in with your Microsoft 365 work or school account through Microsoft Entra ID SSO, in Teams or at blz.actionbridge.io. Any organization can sign in; personal Microsoft accounts cannot (error AADSTS50020). Includes what to check when sign-in fails.
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.
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. 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Inviting Team Members via Microsoft Teams
There are no email invites in AB Projects — adding someone to the linked Microsoft Teams channel is the invite. How automatic onboarding works, what happens on a person's first open, the manual invite option, guests, and how seats are granted.
Navigating the Interface
How to get around any ActionBridge app in Microsoft Teams — a personal app with a Home tab plus product tabs, channel tabs for shared team work, and the same data on the web.
Supported Platforms
Where you can use AB: inside Microsoft Teams on desktop, web, and mobile, from your browser, and through AI assistants via MCP — with a Microsoft 365 work or school account. Includes the 11 supported interface languages.
