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.
AB Sales Troubleshooting
Answers to the most common AB Sales questions — an empty Contacts tab, missing workspaces, email that won't send, sample data, and sign-in issues.
Labels: Tagging and Segmenting Leads
Labels are colored tags you attach to leads to segment your pipeline by temperature, size, or industry. Every workspace ships with a default set, the AI can auto-apply them, and you can filter and group by label.
My Pipeline and the Workspace Dashboard
AB Sales has two overview screens — My Pipeline (your personal cross-workspace cockpit in the Home tab) and the per-workspace Dashboard. What each shows.
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.
Sales Workspaces: Channel-Linked vs Standalone
A workspace is one self-contained CRM. AB Sales has two kinds — channel-linked (shared with a Teams channel) and standalone (yours in the personal app). How to create and switch between them.
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.
How the AB Sales Funnel Works
How a lead moves through the AB Sales funnel — Lead → Contact → Opportunity → Customer — what advances each stage, and why AI research enriches a lead without moving it.
Agents: CRM Automation
The Agent is the automation engine that finds missing websites, extracts contact emails from company pages, and sends a first-touch template email — on a 5-minute timer, with strict verification and daily caps. This article covers each stage, how to pause, and how to opt out a single lead.
CRM Settings
Everything in the CRM Settings page — automation on/off, the sending mailbox and daily email cap, the Teams notification channel, email templates, and labels. Owner/Admin only.

MCP Tools Reference
Reference for the ActionBridge MCP tools that let AI assistants work with both AB Projects (tasks, documents) and AB Sales (leads, contacts, opportunities, customers) — every change recorded and posted to the linked Teams channel.
Becoming a Project Member in AB Projects
In AB Projects, project membership follows the connected Microsoft Teams channel. You're added automatically when the roster syncs — you don't have to visit the tab first to be a member, be assigned, or be mentioned.
Teams Channel and Project Linking in AB Projects
Learn how AB Projects links each Microsoft Teams channel one-to-one with a project, and how membership follows the channel automatically — opening the tab syncs the whole roster, so members don't each need to visit to be added, assigned, or mentioned.
Why AB Projects Requires Microsoft Graph Permissions
The Microsoft Graph API permissions AB Projects uses and why — covering Teams channel linking and roster sync, posting task activity and syncing thread replies, Outlook calendar scheduling, and Microsoft SSO. The Entra app registration / consent screen is the authoritative list.
Microsoft Teams App Doesn't Load
AB Projects tab not loading in Microsoft Teams? Work through reloading, updating/restarting the Teams client, Microsoft SSO and admin consent, clearing Teams cache, unblocking blz.actionbridge.io on the network, and checking app install/consent.
I Can't See My Tasks
Tasks not showing in AB Projects? Work through project selection, the filter panel (completed/omitted hidden by default and remembered), the List/Gantt/Kanban views (Gantt needs dates), Teams-channel membership sync, and reloading.
Who Can See What?
Visibility in AB Projects is membership-based: every project member sees all of the project's tasks, comments, subtasks, and history. Roles (Owner/Admin/Member) control management, not visibility — there is no private-task or read-only tier. Confidentiality is done via separate channels.
Confidentiality and Enterprise Agreements
How confidentiality works in AB Projects: access is scoped by Teams channel membership and Microsoft identity, with a full audit trail. There is no per-task privacy flag, NDA workflow, watermarking, or access expiration; NDAs and private terms are handled via Enterprise agreements.
SSO and Microsoft Login
AB Projects uses Microsoft SSO (Microsoft Entra ID) for password-free sign-in with your Microsoft 365 account. No separate password and no per-user license to assign; project access follows your Teams-channel membership.
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.
Integration with Microsoft Teams and Adaptive Cards
How AB Projects integrates with Microsoft Teams: one-to-one channel tab, Adaptive Cards posted for every comment and task change with a two-way thread, the chip-picker mention model that fires Teams @mentions, and Microsoft SSO with channel-driven membership (no license gate).
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.
Installing the AB Projects Teams App
Learn how to install the AB Projects app in Microsoft Teams as a personal app or a channel tab. Includes the channel setup flow (create or link a project, project types), the included bot, and Microsoft SSO sign-in.
Managing Project Settings
Learn how to manage AB Projects project settings: name, description, icon, perma name, estimate unit, task workflow (statuses, types, environments), GitHub integration, the Microsoft Teams link, and ownership, leaving, and deletion.
Role-Based Access Control
Learn how roles work in AB Projects. Every member is an Owner, Admin, or Member; new members join as Member by default. Admin and Owner control members, the Teams link, and workflow configuration, all scoped per project.
Adding or Removing Members
Learn how members are added to and removed from an AB Projects project. Membership follows the connected Microsoft Teams channel: people auto-join when they open the tab, Owners/Admins can invite from the channel roster, and roles are Owner, Admin, and Member.
Understanding Projects and Teams
How projects and Microsoft Teams fit together in AB Projects: a project is a scoped workspace linked to one Teams channel, its members auto-synced from that channel, with Owner/Admin/Member roles. Users belong to many projects and switch via the Projects tab.
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.
Inviting Team Members via Microsoft Teams
AB Projects onboards your whole team through Microsoft Teams automatically: once the AB Projects tab is connected to a channel, every channel member is added to the project and kept in sync — no one-by-one email invites. Admins can also manually invite specific channel members.
