SharePoint Online - Create a folder - Add check if it does exists

The action is used to create a folder, only if the folder does not already exist.

If the folder already exists, the workflow fails.

Ideas:

- If the folder already exists, do not fail.

- Add a parameter to indicate what to do if the folder already exists. Fail or Continue?

- Create a new action to check if a folder exists.

Context: I am working with accounting staff, and they want subfolders organized by year and month. The first workflow of the month must create the subfolder. I do not want the other workflows of the month to fail because the subfolder for the already exists.
