Here's a model that does this by creating a conveyor and source and connecting them - the token has a pointer to the entry transfer after it is run. CreateConveyorEntryPointinPF.fsm.

In the concise 'node' syntax, + evaluates the pointer value of the path and ~ finds the ownerobject of that resulting node.

Hi! You can try creating a pointer label in the conveyor called entry (for the entry transfer) and then you can do the reference like "current.entry.as(Object).inObjects[1]"

You can check it in the attached model.

I hope it helps!
