How do I give myself a potion or tipped arrow with an effect?

Question

In Java Edition, I can give myself a potion with effect with an NBT tag:
give @s potion 1 0 {Potion:"minecraft:regeneration"}

However, I cannot do this in Bedrock Edition, as there is no access to NBT tags from commands.

Bedrock Edition uses data values to store the potion effect used by a potion or Tipped Arrow. To give a potion of tipped arrow with the specified effect, you use the command:

/give <player> potion <data value>

where the data value is looked up from this table:

Tipped arrows use a similar syntax:

/give <player> arrow <data value>

(note: it's just arrow, not tipped_arrow, unlike in Java Edition, and the data values are off by one)

In fact, there is no need for an NBT here to give a potion.
You just need the data value for the item:
/give @a potion 1 7

Here is a table of data values for the potions.
