# Sources

> Schema for source citations returned by the Google AI Mode endpoint, listing URLs, titles, snippets, and publishers referenced in the generated answer.

This section documents the **sources** data returned by the [Google AI Mode endpoint](/api-reference/endpoint/monitor-aimode). Sources are part of the AI Mode response, so no separate API call is needed.

## Example request

```json theme={null}
{
  "prompt": "best laptops for programming",
  "country": "US"
}
```

This produces a response containing the `sources` array documented below.

## Overview

AI Mode sources follow the [common sources structure](/guides/making-requests/sync#sources-array-structure) (`position`, `url`, `label`, and `description`) with no AI-Mode-specific fields.
