Getting Started FAQs

Getting started takes just a few minutes:

1. Visit our contact page at abundly.ai/contact — tell us about yourself and your AI agent ideas
2. We'll reach out to get you onboarded personally and help you succeed
3. Start building — create agents from scratch or clone one from our Use Cases

For a complete walkthrough, see our Getting Started Guide.

There are two ways to pause an agent:

1. From Agent Management: Go to Agent Management → Agents tab, find your agent, and use the On/Off toggle in the Status column
2. From the agent itself: Go to Settings → Main Settings → Actions and toggle the agent off

While paused, the agent stops processing triggers, scheduled tasks, and incoming messages — but stays fully configured and ready to resume anytime.

For more details, see our Agent Management documentation.

Agent instructions define what your agent should do, how it should behave, and provide necessary context—think of them as a job description for your AI.

Quick tips for effective instructions:

• Be specific and direct—state exactly what the agent should do
• Include relevant context (company info, tone, constraints)
• Use examples to demonstrate expected behavior
• Start simple and iterate based on testing

Two ways to create instructions:

1. Click "Instructions" in the agent navbar for direct editing
2. Use conversational configuration by chatting with the agent
