" i wanted to use the condition system.response.citations

Hi,

You can do this with System.Response.Citations and by turning off the default response.

1. Use a Generative Answers node to query your knowledge
Add your knowledge node as usual and make sure Citations are enabled.

2. Capture the citations and stop the default answer

Right after the generative node, add two actions:

Set variable value (optional, for debugging)

Name: Global.Citations

Value: System.Response.Citations

Set variable value

Name: System.ContinueResponse

Value: false

This tells Copilot not to send its own summary.

3. Send your own “links-only” reply

Add a Send a message node with something like this in the message (Power Fx):

If(
IsEmpty(System.Response.Citations),
"I couldn’t find any links for that query.",
"Here are some links you can check:"
& Char(10)
& Char(10)
& Concat(
System.Response.Citations As c,
"- [" & c.Name & "](" & c.Url & ")" & Char(10)
)
)

That will output only a bullet list of clickable links pulled from the citations.
