Quick summary
ChatGPT can generate citations in multiple citation formats when prompted correctly. This guide walks you through how to request a source, specify a format, and incorporate the result directly into your work.
Steps
- Ask ChatGPT for a source by typing a prompt that requests a reference or citation for your topic.
- Request a specific citation format — such as APA, MLA, or Chicago — so ChatGPT returns the reference in the structure you need.
- Include the citation in your work by copying the output and inserting it into your document or reference list.
