Fetching a missing Folder, now creates it

Fetching a missing Folder, now creates it

Hello,

I'm using Zoho Flow to fetch a folder within a Team Folder. If the folder is missing (folder ID is null), I trigger a Create Folder.

Now in 2025, when I fetch a missing folder, a folder is created right away with the "name + full date" and a Folder ID.

Can the automatic Folder creation be disabled in the settings? (and where ?)

How do I know now, that the folder has been created right now while fetching it ? I don't see a parameter in the returned JSON, that it has just been created. I need to update my flow to take this automatic creation into account.

Thank you for your help.
