How my users can create folder and attach a file/files from PowerApps . I was able to upload a single doc/docs to SP document library from PowerApps canvas app but I'm stuck not able to create a folder and push files to the folders . The requirement is literally to mimic the SP doc Library feature in canvas Apps. Display docs/folders with metadata and create/upload doc/folders with metadata. Was able to do all except the folder creation/upload and store the docs within the folder. Power automate/API call ?

 

If I'm a user , I name my folder 'Finance' then attach files A,B,C in 'finance folder from canvasapp.

Existing Library/Finance/File A ,B, C....    

 

Below link given me some idea but it's not clear how Users could create the folder name from the canvas app and push files to the folder . Users will be interacting with the canvas App not the backend SP doc library. thoughts please . Thank you

    @PowerExplorer ,

    You could create a flow with a PowerApps trigger that accepts Site, Library, and folder path as parameters.

    You can provide the path in your Create folder action.
