Google AI Overview citation pills schema - cloro

This section documents the citation pills data in the Google AI Overview: the inline pills (for example [Chase Bank +3]) that Google shows next to the AI Overview text. result.aioverview.citationPills has one entry per cited source and is present only when Google shows pills.

Citation pill structure

Citation pills have the same structure as AI Mode citation pills, with one difference: position indexes result.aioverview.sources and is present on every entry. A chip can also hold URLs that are not in sources. Those go in related links, not in citationPills.
