Workflow E-mail Links
A SharePoint Workflows tutorial by Peter Kalmström
 When
you create a workflow that sends an e-mail notification,
you probably want to include some links in the e-mail. In
the demo below Peter Kalmström, CEO and Systems Designer
of kalmstrom.com Business Solutions, gives a few examples
on how to build common links.
Peter uses a Procedures document library with a workflow
in his example, but the links he shows can be used in SharePoint
lists too, with minor modifications.
For the demonstration Peter adds link after link to the
same e-mail, to show how the addition and testing is done.
Below are the links Peter shows. Red text in the link code
represents Lookup values selected from dropdowns under the
Data Source "Workflow Context" or "Current Item".

[Current Site URL][Current
