12. Personal Communications:

Basic format to reference personal communications

Works that cannot be recovered by readers are cited in the text as personal communications.
Personal Communications include "emails, text messages, online chats or direct messages, personal interviews, telephone conversations, live speeches, unrecorded classroom lectures, memos, letters, messages from nonarchived discussion groups or online bulletin boards, and so on" (APA, Publication Manual, 2020, p. 260). As these sources do not provide recoverable data, Personal Communications are not included in the Reference List.
Cite Personal Communications in-text only.
In your in-text citation of a Personal Communication give the initials as well as the surname of the communicator, and provide as exact a date as possible.
Use your judgment in citing Personal Communications. Remember that what you cite should have scholarly relevance.
Some forms of Personal Communications are recoverable, and these should be referenced as Archival Materials, see the APA Style website for detailed information on how to reference archival materials.

Dawkins, personal communication, October 11, 2017).	You do not need to include an entry in the Reference List. This example is about referencing information from an interview that you have conducted. If you use published interviews conducted by other people cite them as appropriate, for example as a 'Speech audio recording' or 'Film'. See the 'Audiovisual Materials' page in this guide for examples. See the 'Archival Materials' section on the APA Style website for advice on referencing an interview held in an archive.
