Create a blank folder at a scheduled time
I would like an empty folder to be created every morning at 5 am on my Sharepoint online site. I have been working in flows and it only seems that there is only the capability to create a file at a scheduled time. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I might go about doing this??
Thanks!

Hi BryceKauffman , you've raised the same question in several different posts recently. Have you tried the solution I gave you at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/SharePoint/How-do-you-Create-Blank-Folders-Automaticlly-using-Flows/m-p/729575/highlight/true#M31603 which has been creating a blank folder for me every day at 5am without fail since I posted the solution?

BryceKauffman This option looks like a good workaround. Create a file, build the folder path dynamically, then delete the file.
