ChatGPT project management, connected to your real tasks

Connect ChatGPT to AB Projects over MCP and it stops giving you advice about your projects and starts doing the work — finding, creating, updating and completing real tasks that your team sees in Microsoft Teams.

What ChatGPT can do in your projects

These map to the tools AB Projects exposes over MCP — not to a general-purpose browsing plugin.

Work with tasks

Look up your tasks, search across projects, read a specific task, create new ones, update fields such as dates and assignees, complete them, and add comments.

Understand projects

List the projects you belong to, see who is on them, read the available options and check the schedule — so answers reflect your actual workspace.

Read and write documents

Browse the project wiki, open and search articles, draft new ones, update existing pages and comment on them — so decisions live beside the tasks.

Connect ChatGPT in three steps

1

Have AB Projects in Microsoft Teams

Add AB Projects from Microsoft AppSource and sign in with your Microsoft 365 account. The free plan covers up to 10 users.

2

Add the connector in ChatGPT

The simplest route is to install the AB Projects app in ChatGPT — nothing to paste. To connect manually instead, go to Settings → Connectors, add a custom connector, and use the AB Projects MCP endpoint with OAuth (Microsoft 365) as the authentication method:

https://mcp.actionbridge.io/mcp

Sign in once, then just ask

On the first tool call your browser opens to sign in with Microsoft 365. After that, ask ChatGPT for your tasks and it will work directly against your projects. Step-by-step details are in Connecting AI assistants via MCP.

Prompts worth trying

Each of these maps to something the integration can genuinely do.

“What are my open tasks in AB Projects, and which ones are overdue?”
“Create a task in the Website Redesign project: draft the launch checklist, due Friday, and assign it to me.”
“Search my tasks for anything mentioning “invoice” and summarise the status.”
“Mark task ab123 as complete and add a comment explaining what shipped.”
“Who is on the Q3 Migration project, and what does the schedule look like?”
“Read the onboarding document in our project wiki and turn the gaps into tasks.”
“Write a short spec in the project wiki from this conversation, then add a comment linking it to the API work.”
“Give me a stand-up summary of what changed across my projects this week.”

Your identity, your permissions, a full record

Microsoft 365 OAuth

No API keys to create or rotate. You sign in with the Microsoft 365 account you already use.

Same access as you

The assistant gets exactly the permissions you have in the web app — it cannot reach projects you cannot.

Every action logged

Each AI action is recorded along with the reason the assistant gave for it.

Visible in Teams

Every change posts an Adaptive Card to the project channel, so work done in ChatGPT is not invisible.

Frequently asked questions

Can ChatGPT actually create and update my tasks?

Yes. AB Projects runs an MCP server, so once ChatGPT is connected it can find tasks, create them, update them, complete them and add comments — as well as read and write project documents. It acts as you, with your permissions, rather than returning text you have to copy somewhere.

Do I need an API key?

No. The connection uses Microsoft 365 OAuth. The first time ChatGPT calls a tool, your browser opens and you sign in with your Microsoft 365 account — there is no API key to create, paste or rotate.

What can my team see when ChatGPT changes something?

Every AI action is logged together with the reason the assistant gave, and an Adaptive Card is posted to the project channel in Microsoft Teams for every change. Work done in ChatGPT stays visible to the team where they already are.

Can ChatGPT see projects I do not have access to?

No. The integration uses your Microsoft 365 identity and gives the assistant exactly the same permissions you have in the AB Projects web app — nothing more.

Does this work with other AI tools as well?

Yes. MCP is an open standard, so the same AB Projects server works with Claude, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot and other MCP clients. You are not locked into one assistant.
