Questions about this workflow
What if there is no matching folder?
The action finds a folder; it does not create one. You can create a separate workflow for folder creation if missing folders should be handled.
Can a parent folder narrow the lookup?
Yes. Provide the parent folder when you want to find a company folder within a particular location.
