Rule to create a Node from a Webform Submission

Question

Using Rules with Webform Rules enabled, how would I make a new node after a webform submission and use the submitted values as field values in the node?

In short, how do I turn webform submissions into nodes using Rules.

I've set up the Rule like this:

Where do I go from here? I can't seem to find a way to move webform submission values into the node's fields.

Please note: I have read "Using webform rules to create node after webform submission" and "How to create a node with submissions of a webform?". Unfortunately, neither address my question.

Answer 1

Below is something I learned about using webform data in Rules, which may help you to get this to work ... (assuming this question is about D7).

You have access to all labels and all values of any field of a webform, ie:

• [data:MachineFieldName-title] contains the Label of a field with machine name MachineFieldName.
• [data:MachineFieldName-value] contains the Value of a field with machine name MachineFieldName

So try to use similar tokens.

For way more details on this, and a prototype rule about this, refer to the answer to "How to create a node from a Webform using rules?":

• the 1st attempt relates to using "Entity has field" (which doesn't work for Webform).
• the 2nd attempt explains what to do in case of Webform.

Note: if your target field is a multi value field, using "Set a data value" is completely wrong. Instead you need to use an action like "Add item to a list". Refer to my answer to "How to set multiple values to an unlimited Term Refence field with Rules" for way more details about "Add item to a list".
