Grant Document Tree Access nor working

Android 6 (Marshmallow).

When trying to write a file the alert appears that "grant document tree access" is necessary to perform this action next time without asking. Then the usual file manager is displayed where I selected external SD card.

But tasker does not seem to be able to write to the file. The alert reappears instantly. If I select <back> I get an error message

15.12.01/FileUtil haveAccess: test : 
content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/tree/1234-5678%3A wr: false ww: 
true ir: true iw: true 
15.12.01/FileUtil haveAccess: fullPath: /storage/1234-5678 
15.12.01/FileUtil nrda: need request: /TaskerTest. txt: true 
15.12.01/E start proxy ProxyTransparent, wait, time limit 20s 
15.12.01/E add wait type Proxy Group time 20 
15.12.01/E add wait type Proxy Group done 
15.12.01/E set proxy: true (startProxy) 
15.12.01/E add wait task 
15.12.03/E Error: 1

/storage/1234-5678 is external SD card. If I provide the full path to a file on internal storage it works (as expected).

What's wrong?

Can you please export your task's description (not xml) so I can take a look? Long-click the task in Tasker->export description Thanks in advance

Sorry, replied to the wrong comment. You'll find my reply above your question.

The action is "Write File"

File has been "savedata.log".

After changing that to "/storage/emulated/0/Tasker/savedata.log" it works.
Seems that tasker has no clue where to write files without path information.

That leads me to the suggestion to add a standard path somewhere in the configuration and use it if nothing else has been provided.
