After banging away at this all afternoon, I finally got it to work - hooray! Your workflows were invaluable to my understanding of how the elements all work together, so no apologies necessary. Thanks so much, Stephen! IDK if there's anyone else who'd be interested in using the workflow I made (warning: it's very messy), but I'm happy to share if anyone wants.

Okay, that at least got me a new folder in the right location - hooray! Is there a way for it to prompt me for the folder name, or does it have to be the same name every time? And is there a way to then move the files to the new folder? I'm sure it will involve the universal action, but since the output of this is a folder and not the original files, I'm not sure how to tell it to look at the files again.

Hi folks, long time user, first time poster. I'm trying to figure out how to use the "make new folder" automation, but I'm stymied because I have no idea where the folder is created, and there's no way to input a name so I can search to find it. I'm clearly missing something. My goal is to create a workflow that will take a group of selected files, create a new folder in their current folder, and move them to the new folder. I'm already struggling to grok how to all the objects work together, so this automation being completely opaque is really not helping 😅 Can any of y'all help me figure this out?
