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.
The AB Sales Bot: Chat Commands
Ask the AB Sales bot for your leads, pipeline, or customers — or create a lead — right from a Teams chat. All commands work in English and Japanese.
Importing and Exporting Leads (CSV)
Bring leads into AB Sales from a CSV file or export your whole lead list — including labels, funnel stage, and AI research. Covers the template, duplicate detection, and which columns import.
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.
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.
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.
Your Customer Store
Everyone who contacts your AB Support desk becomes a customer record, matched by email or phone number depending on the channel, so returning people bring their history. It's AB Support's own store, separate from the AB Sales CRM.
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.
Knowledge Sources: How the AI Answers
The AI answers customers directly from the knowledge sources you point it at — an AB wiki and public help content — and cites them. What you put in those sources is what your customers get, so configure them carefully.
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. How one is created, and how to open it from Teams or the web.
AB Support: Overview
AB Support is AI-assisted customer service your team works from Microsoft Teams or a web browser — customers reach you by web chat, email, forms, WhatsApp and SMS; tickets land in one queue. The hub for every AB Support help page.
Who Can See What? (AB Sales)
Visibility in AB Sales is workspace-based: every workspace member sees that workspace's whole pipeline, each workspace's data is isolated, and roles (Owner/Admin/Member) control management, not visibility.
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, AI-drafted replies, and deliverability.
CRM Settings
Everything in the CRM Settings page — automation on/off, the sending mailbox and daily email cap, the Teams notification channel, and labels. Templates and campaigns now live on the Agents tab. Owner/Admin only.
Customers
A Customer is an established account in AB Sales — usually converted from a won lead. Customers carry multiple Contacts and Opportunities and can be archived without losing history.
Connecting AI Assistants via MCP
Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, or Antigravity to ActionBridge via MCP at https://mcp.actionbridge.io/mcp — the /mcp path is the step everyone misses. Per-client OAuth setup, what you get (tools, slash-command prompts, resources), licensing, and troubleshooting.
Becoming a Project Member in AB Projects
How you become a member of an AB Projects project: being in the linked Teams channel is the only requirement — the roster sync adds you as a Member automatically, and there is a checklist for names missing from the assignee or mention picker.
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.
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.
Language and Locale Settings
AB Projects is available in 11 languages, now all directly selectable from the Language and Region dropdown in Settings. How to change your language, what the setting changes, and why dates stay in ISO format.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
