Signature

(org-timestamp-inactive &optional ARG)

Documentation

Insert an inactive time stamp.

An inactive time stamp is enclosed in square brackets instead of angle brackets. It is inactive in the sense that it does not trigger agenda entries. So these are more for recording a certain time/date.

If the user specifies a time like HH:MM or if this command is called with at least one prefix argument, the time stamp contains the date and the time. Otherwise, only the date is included.

When called with two universal prefix arguments, insert an inactive time stamp with the current time without prompting the user.
