Hello, I'm new to the Abaqus CAE software and am looking for some advice on inputting this geometry as a 3D solid or shell into Abaqus.

The part I'm trying to model is a swage nozzle. I've attached an example of this swage fitting. Any tips?

Abaqus/CAE has very good geometry modeling tools but they are not as powerful as in CAD software. Especially advanced surface modeling may require the use of an external modeler and import to Abaqus. However, in this case you can try using tools available in CAE, i.e. Create Shell: Sweep or Create Solid: Sweep.
