Manually triggered flow to create an automated Outlook move rule

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by
I would like to create a flow that follows this process:
 
1. A new email comes in with specific text in the subject.
2. I would manually trigger a flow that prompts me for a new folder name, and then creates a subfolder in the Inbox with that name.
3. A new Outlook rule or flow is created that would move all incoming emails with that folder name in the subject or body into this new folder.
4. That rule or flow then executes on the emails in the Inbox and automatically runs for all future incoming emails.
 
So far, I can accomplish steps 1 and 2. I'm sure I could create steps 3 and 4 but can't figure out how to link those steps together using the input from step 2. Is this even possible?
