Create new folder on Share Point

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by mbefmdc 13

I'm trying to build a flow that creates a folder on SharePoint every 1st day of the month and I would like to name the folder as the month it was created. For example:

 

I have the folder "Faturas" and whant to create inside that folder another one called 09 on September 1st, and the same on October (a folder called 10).

How could I proceed?

    Hi @mbefmdc ,

     

    You can use the below.  There might be an easier way though lol.

     

    if(equals(length(string(int(formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MM')))),1),concat('0',int(formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MM'))),int(formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MM')))

    Actually I found out that if a certain folder path I used on flow doesn't exists, it is created. Anyway, I'm really grateful for the help.
