This template generates an external link from a persistent identifier for a metadata entry within the Japan Center for Asian Historical Records (JACAR), a part of the National Archives of Japan.

Usage

Standard usage as a citation is: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>"Title" (in 日本語). Japan Center for Asian Historical Records. Ref. ID.</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>Editor (ed.). "Title" (in 日本語). Japan Center for Asian Historical Records. Ref. ID. {{cite web}}: |editor= has generic name (help)</syntaxhighlight>

To generate only the URL: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>https://www.jacar.archives.go.jp/aj/meta/MetSearch.cgi?IS_KEY_S1=ID&SUM_KIND=SimpleSummary&IS_KIND=detail&IS_SCH=META&IS_STYLE=eng&IS_START=1&IS_EXTSCH=&DEF_XSL=default&IS_SORT_KND=ASC&IS_SORT_FLD=&IS_TAG_S1=InD&IS_LYD_DIV=&LIST_VIEW=&ON_LYD=on</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>https://www.jacar.archives.go.jp/aj/meta/MetSearch.cgi?IS_KEY_S1=ID&SUM_KIND=SimpleSummary&IS_KIND=detail&IS_SCH=META&IS_STYLE=eng&IS_START=1&IS_EXTSCH=&DEF_XSL=default&IS_SORT_KND=ASC&IS_SORT_FLD=&IS_TAG_S1=InD&IS_LYD_DIV=&LIST_VIEW=&ON_LYD=on</syntaxhighlight>

For compatibility with the Japanese version of this template, <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>Title (in Japanese)</syntaxhighlight> generates a less verbose link.

The ID is the key for the item found in the URL https://www.jacar.archives.go.jp/aj/meta/MetSearch.cgi?IS_KEY_S1=ID&SUM_KIND=SimpleSummary&IS_KIND=detail&IS_SCH=META&IS_STYLE=...
