To get this, you press C-u enter on the candidate you select, and that
should give you a new helm selection for citation type. This is
currently only possible in the helm backend. I am not sure if it can be
done with ivy yet.

I think C-u C-c ] will give a list of labels to make a ref link to.
Maybe you don't have any labels, so it looks empty.
