Using Flow to create a folder in box and pass the URL into CRM

Using Flow to create a folder in box and pass the URL into CRM

Hello, 

I have set up a Zoho Flow so that when a field is set in Zoho CRM, it creates a new folder in Box titled with the records ID and Name. However, I am struggling to figure out how to pass the URL for the newly created Box folder back into a field in my CRM record. Is there a way to do this? 

Additionally, I’d love to be able to find a way to take the user directly to the newly created folder in Box without them having to wait for the URL to be passed back into CRM and having to click it. 

Edit: I feel like I'm so close!   I created a field in the CRM module for "Folder ID" so that I can pass the Folder ID from the newly created folder in box back to this field.  I then intend to use a custom action button to invoke a URL where I can insert the folder ID at the end of the URL to bring my user directly into that folder.   BUT, I cannot seem to set up my FLOW correctly as I cannot see to get the Folder ID to pass back into the CRM module field I created. 

Edit 2: Success!   For some reason in my Flow it wouldn't return the folder ID when I fetched it, but I was able to move up a level and return it from the "Create folder" step.  I must not have needed the "fetch" step.
