In my knowledge sources, I reference links that are relevant. However, it is a known issue that these links get removed. I read online about a workaround that I have not been able to reproduce in order to still reference links: Copilot: An external link was removed to protect your privacy.. Has anyone successfully done this and can explain where this prompt was entered? Does anyone have an idea if Microsoft will address this issue, and if so, when? Other workarounds are also welcome.
Hi,
I have fully written out the links as plain text and tried rewriting the text in various ways to ensure that Copilot wouldn't recognize it as an external reference. I also organized the sources in an Excel sheet and uploaded it, but none of this seems to work. What exactly do you mean by adding links in FAQ entries? And how can I add links as environment variables or metadata?
Hi all, i've updated the prompt in the Copilot: An external link was removed to protect your privacy post to include insights from Andreas Sieber on LinkedIn. The prompt should be more persistent now.
