Error details:The execution of template action 'Apply_to_each_2' failed: the result of the evaluation of 'foreach' expression '@items('Apply_to_each')?['POCName']' is of type 'String'. The result must be a valid array.
 
Kindly suggest how to loop through POCname value and create a folder in document library

    You can use a split function to convert your text field value (multiple lines) to an valid array. You can use split on the line feed character, aka %0A:

    Below is an example
     
    split(item()['POCName'], decodeUriComponent('%0A'))
     
    Test result
