How do I make the GPT assistant not reference internal files in responses when using file_search?

I need my GPT Assistant to avoid referencing files when using file_search. Specifically, I want it to stop including citations or links (like the [1] in square brackets at the end of responses) to the internal documents. The issue is that these responses are being sent to clients, and they’re seeing references to our internal files.

How can I set up a prompt so that the Assistant does not include any file citations or indications that it’s pulling information from internal documents?

Hi, this is something where I’ve personally written techniques before on the forum that provides you multiple methods. It is disappointing that that knowledge is locked and lost behind a poor search, even if you did use precise keywords – and even if you were the author and were searching your own posts for the exact contents.

So the first question I personally have: Can ChatGPT with search actually answer?

Yes, I personally have made ChatGPT smarter.

The AI cannot write a decent or even plausible response for logit_bias, but you do not have control over that on Assistants anyway.
