 Now let's jump in and create our Power Automate workflow in the platform
 
 1. Log in to Power Automate:
-
   - Navigate to [Power Automate](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/products/power-automate) and log in with your Microsoft 365 credentials
-
 2. Create a new flow:
-
   - On the left-hand sidebar, click on *"Create"*.
   - You’ll be presented with several options. Select *"Automated cloud flow"* since we’re triggering the workflow when a new email arrives
-
 3. Name your flow and choose a trigger:
-
   - In the dialog box that appears, give your flow a name, such as "Move CSV Attachments to OneDrive"
   - Under Choose your flow's trigger, search for the trigger titled *"When a new email arrives (V3)"*
   - Click *"Create"* to proceed
-
 4. Set email filter conditions (optional):
-
   - Once the trigger is added, you can narrow down the emails that trigger this flow:
   - In the trigger step, you can add filters such as *Inbox*, *From* address, *Subject* line, specific *Folder*, or *Has Attachments* to refine the emails that the workflow will act upon
   - For instance, you might specify a *Subject Filter* containing "SA360 export" to only trigger on emails that have "SA360 export" in the subject line
-
 5. Initialize "timestamp" variable:
-
   - Click *"New Step"* and search for *"Initialize variable"*
   - Create a variable named "timestamp"
   - Set the *"Type"* to *"String"*, and under *"Value"*, use the *"Expression"* option (lightning bolt icon) to generate a dynamic timestamp:
   - Use the expression `utcNow()` to capture the current date and time
   - This ensures the timestamp is generated once and can be reused consistently throughout the workflow.
-
 6. Add an *"Apply to each"* loop:
-
   - After initializing the variables, click *"New Step"* and search for *"Apply to each"*
   - Select *"Apply to each"*, and in the *"Select an output" *field, select *"Attachments"* from the dynamic content pane (this will loop over all attachments in the incoming email)
-
 7. Create a timestamped folder in OneDrive:
-
   - Inside the *"Apply to each"* loop, click *"New Step"* and search for *"Create new folder 2"*.
   - Select the OneDrive associated with your target SharePoint Site
   - Set the folder name to the `timestamp` variable, ensuring it persists throughout the flow for all attachments
   - (optional) Specify a subfolder in *"Folder Path"* to nest it `somewhere/else/{timestamp}`
-
 8. Move email attachments to the new folder:
-
   - After creating the folder, click *"Add an Action"* and search for *"Create file 2"*
   - Point it to the folder you just created in OneDrive
   - For the file name, select *"Attachment Name"* from the dynamic content, and for the file content, choose *"Attachment Content"*
   - This will save each attachment into the newly created timestamped folder
-
 9. Save the flow:
-
   - Once you’ve completed these steps, click "Save"
   - Test the flow by sending an email with attachments. The attachments will now be moved into a single folder based on the static timestamp from when the flow was triggered
