How can citations and references be hidden from chatbot responses?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by RB-26050149-0 4
The Microsoft Copilot Studio agent is deployed on an external website.
Including references and citations in chatbot responses is useful during testing.
However, how can we prevent references and citation numbers from appearing in responses for external users when the Microsoft Copilot Studio agent is hosted on a public website?
 
I have only two files at the moment. Majority of questions are referenced in those document. I do not want them to include in every responses as references and citations.

    Hi,
    You can use the following solution by Henry Jammes from Microsoft on how to change the look and feel of citations (hide them as well): https://github.com/pnp/powerplatform-snippets/tree/main/copilot-studio/citations-topic
     
    Hope it helps!

    Thank you for sharing. I've tried and updated below Conversational boosting code but no changes in the responses. I am still getting reference and citation.
     
    Objective is to provide No references and Citations as response : 
     
    kind: AdaptiveDialog
    beginDialog:
      kind: OnUnknownIntent
      id: main
      priority: -1
      actions:
        - kind: SearchAndSummarizeContent
          id: kYEhCN
          variable: Topic.Answer
          userInput: =System.Activity.Text
          moderationLevel: Medium
          additionalInstructions:
          fileSearchDataSource:
            searchFilesMode:
              kind: SearchSpecificFiles
              files:
                - cre39_cb07QAAgent.component.S123.pdf_2xV
                - cre39_cb07QAAgent.component.S1343.xlsx_eED
     
          knowledgeSources:
            kind: SearchSpecificKnowledgeSources
     
          responseCaptureType: FullResponse
     
        - kind: ConditionGroup
          id: has-answer-conditions
          conditions:
            - id: has-answer
              condition: =!IsBlank(Topic.Answer)
              actions:
                - kind: EndDialog
