Hi,

I am using this function to copy links from the agenda to the clipboard:

(defun my-copy-org-url ()
      (interactive)
      (let* ((link-info (assoc :link (org-context)))
...

org-context is ancient. It relies on org-links being fontified using
'org-link face and would fail for any non-standard link with :face link
parameter. Moreover, the return value will be different depending on
org-link-descriptive setting.

We should probably deprecate this function and encourage using
org-element-context. So, I recommend rewriting your code with
org-element-context.

  (defun my-copy-org-url ()
    (interactive)
    (let* ((raw-link (plist-get (nth 1 (org-element-context)) :raw-link)))
      (if (not raw-link)
          (error "Point not in an org link.")
        (kill-new raw-link)
        (message "Org link URL copied to clipboard."))))

Regards,
Harald

Thank you, that helped me updating the function, which works fine with org-element-context:
