APA referencing style (7th edition) in overleaf

Question

Please how do I get APA referencing Style (7th edition) in overleaf and to change the the bibliography name to References. The below codes are not giving the results

\documentclass[12pt]{report}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[natbib=true,backend=biber,sorting=nyt,style=apa]{biblatex}
\renewcommand*{\bibfont}{\fontsize{10}{12}\selectfont}
\printbibliography{}
\renewcommand\bibname{References}

You're right, your code does not give any results because it is not compilable and therefore no propper MWE. Concerning your problem of renaming: Try to first rename your bibliography and then print it. — Οὖτις, Mar 14 '23 at 10:23

With the biblatex package, you can use the title=... key to change the title of your references:

\documentclass[12pt]{report}
\usepackage[natbib=true,backend=biber,sorting=nyt,style=apa]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
\begin{document}
\cite{knuth:ct}
\printbibliography[title={References}]
\end{document}
