Tip: Titles should be sentence case in APA. Journal titles are Title Case. Use DOI links where possible. This tool formats common cases; always confirm with APA 7 rules.
How to use this APA generator
- Select your source type (web, journal, book, magazine/newspaper, video, thesis).
- Fill in the fields; the citation updates live as you type.
- Use Copy (Text), HTML, Markdown, or LaTeX depending on where you’ll paste.
- Share a prefilled citation by copying the page URL — it encodes the form state.
APA 7 quick rules this tool follows
- Authors: Lastname, F. M., with an ampersand before the final author.
- Year in parentheses; include month and day when available.
- Titles in sentence case. Journal and book titles are italicized and Title Case.
- Prefer DOI links (https://doi.org/...) when available; otherwise use a stable URL.
