Hi!!!
My visa has expired. I have my H1 valid till year end and I got my AP.
I might travel in March. Can I use my AP for re-entry or do I need to revalidate my visa?

Any body had gone through similar situation? Any input is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

No need to revalidate

If you have AP you no longer require your H-1B. Keep in mind that if you have non-citizen dependents your re-entry on AP requires them to have a filed I-485 to maintain valid status, and they will require AP to re-enter the country.

You will also need an EAD to continue to work.
