Rollable table tokens question

So, is there a way for the token table to roll out a formatted token, or is it just the art like when you pull from the character sheet instead of the side bar? I have looked around for answers, but I don't really know what to ask when I search.

If you just press the "token" button (next to "roll") in the table Collections tab it will create a multi-sided token on the VTT. However, editing token properties will have to be done manually each time. There are api scripts that can handle this sort of thing but would require a Pro account. EDIT - sorry, need coffee this morning. Setting up the token will have to be done each time the rollable table is edited (images added/removed), and the default token will have to be reset.

The tokens you create with rollable tables are empty tokens. You need to then link them to a character, and set up the propeties. Once you have dont that you can save the token as a character's default token and summon it back whenever you need it. Does that answer your question?

I want the table to produce the token onto the map, but i want those tokens to be individual creatures, not just a randomized picture for the same creature. I would also like the produced token to have the same size and token actions that pulling the token from the side bar would. To elaborate, i want to build a random creature table that will pump out creature tokens. but its pointless if the tokens produced arent formatted to link to the creature page it was meant for. at that point i might as well just pull them out manually.

Unfortunately you need a Pro subscript and an API script for that kind of table interaction in roll20.
ok, thank you for your help!
