Schema for source citations returned by the Perplexity endpoint, listing URLs, titles, snippets, and publishers referenced throughout the generated answer.
This section documents the sources data returned by the Perplexity endpoint: the citations behind the answer, part of the Perplexity response so no separate API call is needed. They follow the common sources structure (position, url, label, and description) with no Perplexity-specific fields. For use cases, pricing context, and copy-paste examples, see the Perplexity citations API page on the product site.
