Your Personal Settings
Your personal AB Support settings — profile, language, timezone, and the opt-in ticket digest email — and how they differ from a desk's admin-only settings.

Reference for Microsoft store reviewers: what AB Support does, an end-to-end test path, and why each requested permission is needed.
AB Support Troubleshooting

The Web Chat Widget
The AB Support web chat widget — a chat bubble you embed with one script tag. How to add it, its options, how to brand it with your own launcher icon, and what visitors see.
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.

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.
Why AB Projects Requires Microsoft Graph Permissions
Every Microsoft Graph permission AB Projects requests, mapped to the feature it powers: Teams channel linking and roster sync, task cards and comment sync in channels, Outlook calendar scheduling, and Microsoft SSO. Most access is delegated (limited to what you can already do); the Entra ID consent screen is the authoritative list.
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.
Microsoft Teams App Doesn't Load
AB Projects tab blank or stuck in Teams? Most load failures are the Teams client or sign-in, not the app: check for the AADSTS50020 personal-account error, allow the consent popup, restart and update Teams, clear its cache, and make sure blz.actionbridge.io isn't blocked.
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.
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.
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.
Editing Your Profile and Icon
How to change your AB Projects display name, profile photo, language, and timezone in the Settings tab. Your profile starts as a copy of your Microsoft 365 identity, then is edited independently inside AB Projects.
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; dates are edited in the task detail panel (logged with a reason), not by dragging bars.
Daily Digest and AI Assistance
The AB Projects daily digest is sent to you, not written by you: up to 10 open tasks by due date, on the weekdays and time you set, by email and/or Teams — plus per-task deadline reminders and the AI assists you use during the day.
Notifications and Reminders
The three notification types in AB Projects: real-time Adaptive Card activity in the linked Teams channel (with per-project category toggles), a scheduled top-10 task digest by email or Teams chat, and one-shot per-task deadline reminders set with the task's bell.
Adaptive Cards and Task Previews
What the Adaptive Cards AB Projects posts to your Teams channel actually show — priority, dates, a change diff, progress, badges, counts, and the Open button — when they're posted, and why replying under a card writes straight to the task.
Commenting with Mentions in Channels
How task comments sync with the Microsoft Teams thread — comments always post to the channel; thread replies sync back to the task only when the reply @mentions AB Projects — and how the Mention in Teams notification picker controls who gets pinged.
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.
Managing Project Settings
A tour of the AB Projects project settings page: identity, members, Teams channel notification toggles, GitHub integration, task workflow options, the Teams link, ownership transfer, leaving, and the unlink-before-delete rule.
