<h3 id="summary-problem-motivation">Problem/Motivation</h3>
<p>My goal is to create a new content node (X) for each new media document (Y) that is created. </p>
<p>I've successfully added four actions to the event that's triggered when (Y) is uploaded. </p>
<p>(1) Create new content of type Doc (this will be X above)<br>
(2) Fill text field of (X) with token: media:name<br>
(3) Fill Media Document field of Doc with (Y)<br>
(4) Publish (X). </p>
<p>Of these four actions, three work fine: 1,2 and 4. </p>
<p>But I've tried these tokens to fill in the media document field of (X) with (Y):<br>
[media:original]<br>
[media:field_media_document]</p>
<p>I don't get an error in the logs. I just get the created published content with the text field filled with the correct file name. But the media document field is empty. </p>
<p>Any suggestions? </p>
<p>Sorry to bother you. This is quite a nice module. </p>
<p>TIA. </p>
