If you want an APA formatted citation to be inserted into the buffer itself, then no, there isn’t a Citar function that will do that. Citar expects that you will export or convert the buffer into a formatted document (for example, a pdf). So it inserts citations in a format that can be read by various exporters/converters, like org-mode, latex, and pandoc, and then formatted in the desired style. I’m sure it’s possible to write a function that would do what you have in mind, though, presuming I’ve correctly understood your question. Have I?
