Action to create files in Tasker

The file actions are awesome but I can't seem to figure out a way to create files from inside tasker itself, only write them. May be wrong and it's already possible. But if not, would be awesome to have a "Create file" action. Being able to input a title, select the location to place the file, and even select what kind of extension is used (.txt,.csv, Etc.). Would save time by not having to create a file ahead of time to use inside of tasker.

As mentioned, the Write File action will do this.

What is the problem with the Write file action? You can precise the location, the name with the extension, the content.

Did not realize the write action would achieve this. Thought the write action required a actual file to be present already to write to it. Still fairly new to using these actions. Thanks!!
