Looking at the source (org-capture.el), it appears org-capture doesn't allow you to make a permalink for "Link to the currently clocked task", or %K in your template.

`org-capture-fill-template` looks like this:

...
	 (v-K (if (marker-buffer org-clock-marker)
		  (org-link-make-string
		   (format "%s::*%s"
			   (buffer-file-name (marker-buffer org-clock-marker))
			   v-k)
		   v-k)
		""))
... 

So i guess it's hardcoded to just make a bracket link.

I guess i can hack something, but can you guys make a nice change to the source so that i can have a permalink to my clocked in task? Or is there something i'm missing and i can actually do it already?

Thank you

Nate

Rereading my message, i realized it might not be clear what i mean here.

I use (org-id-link-to-org-use-id t) because i like to be able to still follow links after i archive stuff. I want that behavior here so i want the link to an `id:<UUID>` link instead of a `file:/path/to/file` link.

Would a patch for this be welcome? Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? I was thinking it should just respect current value of `org-id-link-to-org-use-id` but maybe there should be something more specific?

Thanks!

Sounds useful to me. Ideally, it would be even better to remove
hard-coded replacements in org-capture-fill-template and use some kind
of (?char . #'fill-function) alist to allow more flexibility.

Best,
