Item link bug in email action

[Amal Vellappillil]

Test case 1:
– Editing a record
– Rule to send an email
– Email contains display link to the current record. I used [[item:link_disp]] inside the body of the email to auto generate the link.
– When I received the email, it had PageType=6 (this is wrong. it should have been PageType=4)

I checked the following as well
– View item link: [[item:link_disp]] – resulting PageType=6
– Edit item link: [[item:link_edit]] – resulting PageType=6
– Current form: [[item:link]] – resulting PageType=6

Test case 2:
– Adding new item
– Rule to send an email
– Email contains display link to newly created record
– I was not able to use .../Sites/YourSite/Lists/YourList/DispForm.aspx?ID=123 pattern (i used _DFFSID for actual id)
– I was not able to use .../Sites/YourSite/_layouts/15/SPListForm.aspx?PageType=4&List=[GUID OF YOUR LIST]&ID=[ITEM ID] (I used _DFFSID for actual id)
– I tried using [[item:link_disp]]. It had a 0 for the id when it auto generated the link. Also the link had PageType=8 (this should have been PageType=4)

I did get a working link by constructing the link with the following pattern .../Sites/YourSite/Lists/YourList/Allitems.aspx?DFFSForm=disp&DFFSID=123
Can you provide a recommended guideline on what to use to generate links from rules in new form?
