Upgrade StorageBibliography not updating when switching from "First Name Last Name" to "Last Name, First name"
Hi
When I add a citation (APA 6th) with an author's name in Zotero organized with the first name followed by the last name e.g. Alex Peterson, this entry is placed under A in the bibliography.
If I change the order of the name in Zotero to Peterson, Alex and refresh the document, the bibliography changes the order of the names to "Peterson, Alex" but the reference is still listed as if the name started wit an A.
Only when I delete the citation and make a new one, the bibliography reflects the change and now list e.g. Peterson, Alex under P.
Shouldn't the sorting change with the change in the name order?
Regards, Christian

I have reproduced the same thing in a couple of test documents.
Refresh does not change the sorting, but switching to Chicago and back did.
I have copied an example of the initial case below:

Created a document with four references, one of which has first author "Bayer, Tobias" (Last, First). "Bayer" is the topmost last name of all four references, so as expected, that citation is listed first in the bibliography.
When I insert the bibliography, the author name reflects how I have it in Zotero, i.e. "Bayer, Tobias" or "Tobias Bayer". However, the position is maintained, i.e. it is always the first entry in my bibliography.
Thus, the name of the first author in the bibliography follows how I have it setup in Zotero, and is unaffected by what the style wants it to be.
Single fiel entry is mainly for institutions like United Nations
The problem is, that if by some mistake a personal name nevertheless ends up as a single field entry, and I correct it in Zotero, this change is not reflected in the position of the reference in the bibliography in my document, cf. the example of gurdas above.
@adomasven @fbennett Is this a bug in citeproc-js or in the recent changes to the integration code?
(As a note, adding a new item to the document does not cause the bibliography to correct the sorting. The new item is added in the correct place, but the changed-item remains in the original, now incorrect, position.)
