To add context - I just simply need to build the link to the folder. We have a task form that let’s users select a drop down of “folders” in a library to send over to the next task owner. We essentially want them to be able to point users to a folder link to open “large” documents that otherwise couldn’t be added to the task itself due to attachment size limitations. 

Tried this on a new list on a test site and still nothing. Not sure why.

Hi ​@brandiwoodson,

I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your solution.
Simple fix first.
Have you tried selecting one of the options in the Update type that allows folders to be updated?
The default ignores folders.

 

Omg. That worked, rookie mistake. Why did I not catch this??? lol

Is there a reason the information (item URL property specifically) is not available in the retrieve an item or query a list actions? Not sure why….

I recall now this always being an issue - only available to us through start event trigger. Doesn’t help us when building component workflows etc. We constantly have to have a process that stores and updates the item URL in a separate field in the library because of this. :(

Hi ​@brandiwoodson,

I hear what you are saying about the item URL. But once you have the Item ID, it won't be too hard to build your own URL like you have.

https://tenant.sharepoint.com/site/Lists/listName/DispForm.aspx?ID=1

An alternative would be to format a text column in modern view to display the current item URL.
just add your tenant details to the code below.

{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
  "elmType": "span",
  "txtContent": "= 'https://YourTenant.sharepoint.com/YourSite/Lists/YourList/DispForm.aspx?ID=' +  $ID]"
}
