Workflow to create a file in a new or existing folder

Hello, I am having an issue creating a file when a new row is added to a sheet. I want to use the file creation to also create a custom folder.  When I set up the automation, everything seems to run smoothly.  The audit log says that the file (from a template) and folder are created exactly how I want, but the folder does not appear within Drive.

I have tried many workarounds, but with no luck.  The only success I have had with folder creation is saving user photos to Drive. This works perfectly. 

Any ideas why I am having problems with the workflow?

I have solved the issue.  Long story but I had started building the app with my gmail before transferring the app to my work email.  Work authenticates through microsoft and somehow i ended up with two appsheet accounts with the same email. one the authenticated thru google and the other thru microsoft. after figuring this out and transferring everything over to the google account, the doc creation worked.  frustrating but solved! thanks for your willingness to help
