Create folders and sub-folders in document library with Power Automate flow

[Naligurtan]

Hello All,

I was wondering if there is anyway to create a Power Apps flow that does the followings:

1-) Create a folder 

2-) Create multiple sub-folder in the folder that is created in step-1

Like this one:

In the video above, users have to go to Power Apps portal and run the flow from there.

My requirement is:

I need the create folders flow button to be in the SharePoint document library so that users don't have to go to the  Power Apps portal to run the flow.

@Naligurtan You can create a power automate flow as shown in video to create folders and subfolders. Then you have below two options to create a button in SharePoint online document library:

1. Using JSON formatting: You can create a button in library using JSON to run a power automate flow. Check this: Create a button to launch a Flow - note that this button will be added against each file/item in your library
2. Using SPFx list view command set: Create a HTTP triggered power automate flow and run it using button create via SPFx list view command set.

Use these links for more information:

1. Execute Power Automate Workflow from SPFx 
2. Build your first ListView Command Set extension

How can I create folder using words extracted (compose-split) from email subject?

@Wibisono1340 Which action are you using for creating the folder? Did you already extracted the name for folder or you need help with it as well?

If you have already extracted the name for folder, use Create folder action in the Power automate flow and pass the extracted name for folder using dynamic content in the flow.

@ganeshsanap I used outlook email as receiver as the trigger, then I extracted words from subject to create folder name. Split subject text is for splitting subject words, extracted subject 1-3 are for each word that is extracted

@Wibisono1340 However, it took longer time to do it.
