Create monthly sub folders

I've created a flow to create a new annual folder - once every 12 months.

I now need to get flow to create monthly sub folders inside the appropriate year folder.

So I can create folders at the root of the library - but is there a way to create a monthly folder - inside the year folder?

Thank you. Any help would be much appreciated.

@Victoria you can provide folder path <curent year>/month, that will create the folder inside year folder.

Ah I see. I tried that but forgot the backslash! Thank you.
But I would need to remember to change the folder destination in the flow, at the beginning of each year?

@Victoria you can use the expression that you have showed in your screenshot, so that you dont have to hard code the year

@Victoria As stated by @annajhaveri use another dynamic expression after your initial formatDateTime

Thank you. I changed first expression to
formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy')
and second
/ formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MMMM')
That seems to work. Thanks for your help.
