Make new OneDrive folders easy to find
A new folder can signal a new project or process. Capture it in Airtable so its purpose and ownership do not get lost.

- 5Test by creating one real folder and review its Airtable entry.
Questions about this workflow
Will it copy the folder contents into Airtable?
No. This workflow creates an index record for the folder using available event details.
Can I include the folder's purpose?
If the event does not provide a purpose, ask Notis to leave it for a person to fill in or provide the purpose in your instruction.
