Overview

An answer the user can verify is worth far more than a confident one. Carry identifiers through retrieval so every claim can point back to a source.

In this lesson you will:

  • Instruct the model to answer only from context
  • Thread source ids through to the rendered answer
  • Make citations clickable back to the original

Pro Tip

Use caching and revalidation wisely to ensure your app stays fast and data remains fresh without unnecessary requests.
