Copying folder and contents into folder Hazel is watching

I have a rule, that executes when any new folders are created within the Parent Folder.

I would like to copy into any new folder, a folder template I have created (Folders, subfolders & files).

Ive searched the forums but I can only find examples of copying the watched folders to other locations & not the reverse (copying files into the folder).

Can anyone help?

Thank you so much.

There is no built-in action for that. You will need to use an AppleScript or shellscript to do something like that. Or maybe there's some way to do it with Shortcuts or Automator.
