Find guides, tips, and answers to get the most out of AB. Browse by topic or search for what you need.
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.
Who Can See Your Tickets and Customers
Who has access to an AB Support desk's tickets and customers — desk membership is the rule, how you join depends on whether the desk is channel-linked or standalone, and one desk (or another AB product) can never see another's data.
Installing AB Support
How to install AB Support from the Microsoft Teams store and create your first support desk — from the Home tab in seconds, or as a channel tab — then work that same desk in Teams, Outlook or a browser. Your customers never install anything.
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 — this desk's own knowledge base, another workspace's wiki, or public help content — and cites them. What you put in those sources is what your customers get told.
Support Desks: Your AB Support Workspace
A desk is your AB Support workspace — its own tickets, customers and settings, independent of AB Projects and AB Sales. The two ways to create one, how to choose, and how to open it from Teams, Outlook or the web.
How a Support Ticket Works
How an AB Support ticket works: the AI answers first, then hands off to a human; plus the Needs us / Waiting on customer / Finished status categories, internal notes, the activity timeline, resolve reasons, and undelivered replies.
AB Support: Overview
AB Support is AI-assisted customer service your team works from Microsoft Teams, Outlook 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
