IDK what happend but my agent doesn't cite the sources correctly it used to do it before.

It used to reference my sources correclty like this :  

After the weekend it doesnt show the resources used correclty 
it shows it just as text.

I use sharepoint as knowledge sources and teams application as platform to host the agent/chatbot.
 
In the Copilot studio test chat it will show correctly.


I use generative orchestration and a topic which triggers on ai generated response to add a adpative card to let the user review the generated response.


Any help i greatly appreciated.

    Solution found: use the OnPlanComplete topic trigger to collect feedback after the AI response

    Topic: Capture AI Response
    Trigger: OnGeneratedResponse

    Nodes:
    – Set variable value Global.isAIGeneratedResponse = true
    – Set variable value Global.FormattedText = System.Response.FormattedText
    – Set variable value Global.Citations = System.Response.Citations (optional, I’m tracking which sources receive positive and negative feedback)
    Don’t cancel the response (so don’t set System.ContinueResponse to false)

    Topic: “Plan complete – ask for feedback”
    Trigger: OnPlanComplete
    Add condition to the trigger: Global.isAIGeneratedResponse = true

    Nodes:
    – Send message (or Ask with adaptive card): send an Adaptive Card to request feedback. Pass Global.FormattedText (and optionally Global.Citations) into the card data.
    – Set variable value Global.isAIGeneratedResponse = false

    Indeed, ContinueResponse = false and then sending System.Response.FormattedText

    I’ve implemented a quick workaround until we find a better solution:

    If(
IsEmpty(System.Response.Citations),
System.Response.FormattedText,
System.Response.FormattedText
& Char(10) & Char(10)
& “**Sources:**” & Char(10)
& Concat(
System.Response.Citations As c,
“1. [” & c.Name & “](” & c.Url & “)” & Char(10)
)
)

    I am having the same problem. Are you setting the variable ContinueResponse = false and then using System.Response.FormattedText
    in the message node in addition to your adaptive card?
