I'm trying to add some nodes using " Inline Enity Form → - Complex" inside a Paragraphs → field (which depends on Entity Reference Revisions → module).

I have a content type named Publication with a field called Related persons and institutions, which is a Paragraphs field containing reference to content type Person or Institution (and additionally a select field to define the role).

Relations work fine, but when creating a new Person or Institution inside Publication and afterwards saving the Publication, this error shows up and the Person/Institution node doesn't get created:

This entity (node: %AutoEntityLabel%) cannot be referenced.

By the way, I am using "Automatically generate the label and hide the label field" setting.

    I am having this problem with simple inline form. So I tried to set the content type to no use Auto Entity Label at all, set to Disabled on the configuration, still I get this error.

    This entity (node: %AutoEntityLabel%) cannot be referenced.

    Drupal 10.3.5
    Auto Entity Label 8.x-3.3

    Update:

    Updated to dev version
    Development version: 8.x-3.x-dev updated 17 Oct 2024 at 19:22 UTC
    No difference.

    Next, I gave all permission to my Role 'Applicant'
    It worked - now I just need to carefully undo 200+ permissions to find the magic key.
