When File is created in OneDrive move to another folder in OneDrive based on a portion file name

Hi Community,

 

I am relatively new to Power Automate, and I am looking for some assistance. I have already made a flow to copy attachments files from my Outlook to a "drop" folder, but I am trying to make another automated or scheduled flow to sort files by a portion of the filename (ex. "Store Name - Report 1.xlxs") which matches the folder name ("Store Name").  There are multiple files in the "drop" folder for the each store that need to be moved to the folder.  I know that if a flow can be made, I can replicate it for the various stores I have.

 

I have been reviewing the forums, articles, and video tutorials, and can't seem to figure it out. I think the I have figured out the trigger "When a file is created", then "Create file" in a different folder, then "Delete file" original file in the triggered folder. But I just cannot make it work.

 

I really appreciate your assistance!
