Poem

A nibble of code, a hop of delight,
Folder paths optional, lighter than light.
Templates bloom where templates dwell,
Defaults guide the way so well.
Version bumps patter—tap, tap, tap—
A happy hare commits this patch. 🐇✨

Pre-merge checks and finishing touches

❌ Failed checks (2 warnings)

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Linked Issues Check	⚠️ Warning	The pull request implements the optional folderId change for the Google Drive create-file-from-template action as required but does not address the same change for the Google Docs create-document-from-template action specified by the linked issue, resulting in only partial fulfillment of the objectives.	Include the corresponding update to the Google Docs create-document-from-template action within this PR or clearly document its separation to ensure all linked issue requirements are met.
Description Check	⚠️ Warning	The pull request description does not follow the repository’s required template and lacks the WHY section detailing the rationale for making the folderId parameter optional, instead only noting the linked issue resolution and a follow-up plan.	Please update the description to include the WHY section per the template, summarizing the motivation for the change, the problem it solves, and how the library’s fallback behavior is leveraged.

✅ Passed checks (3 passed)

Check name	Status	Explanation
Title Check	✅ Passed	The pull request title clearly articulates the primary change to the create-file-from-template action by specifying that the folderId prop is being made optional and identifies the affected Google Drive component, making it concise and directly relevant to the changeset.
Out of Scope Changes Check	✅ Passed	All modifications in the pull request are directly related to making the folderId parameter optional and corresponding version bumps, and no unrelated or out-of-scope changes are present.

28-36: Consider updating the description to reflect the optional nature.

The optional: true flag correctly implements the PR objective. However, the description could be clearer about the behavior when folderId is not provided.

Consider updating the description to mention the fallback behavior:

     description:
-        "Select the folder of the newly created Google Doc and/or PDF, or use a custom expression to reference a folder ID from a previous step.",
+        "Optionally select the folder for the newly created Google Doc and/or PDF, or use a custom expression to reference a folder ID from a previous step. If not provided, the file will be created in the same location as the template.",
     optional: true,

61-114: No changes needed: fallback behavior for undefined destination verified. google-docs-mustaches v1.2.2 places generated files alongside the source template when no folderId is provided.
