Episerver Forms drag n drop not working

Hello,

I have installed Episerver Forms 4.0.0 to a site running Episerver CMS version 9.12.2.

I can´t get the drag n drop functionality to work, i.e when you have the form elements in the right handed area and drag them into the Forms ElementsArea. I get this error:

Could not save property, and it has been reverted. Please try again. ContentReference: Input string was not in a correct format.

Stacktrace from log:

I cannot find a solution for this, anyone one else with the same problem?

Update:

When I looked at the ajax request being made I found the contentLink attribute was missing from the dragndrop element.

{  
      "contentGroup":"",
      "name":"RangeElementBlock",
      "roleIdentities":[  

      ],
      "typeIdentifier":"episerver.forms.implementation.elements.rangeelementblock",
      "attributes":{  
         "data-contentgroup":""
      }
   },
