Java - Amazon S3 bucket upload issue with braces “()” not uploading

Question

I am trying to upload files on Amazon s3 bucket in a very simple way, but it gives error if the file name consists of "(" or ")", i dont want remove or replace these braces as they are required for my case

Code:

AWSCredentials awsCredentials = new BasicAWSCredentials("accessKey", "secretKey");
        AmazonS3 s3 = new AmazonS3Client(awsCredentials);
        String fileName = "TEST_FILE_(NAME).pdf";
        String directorykey = "path/to/amazon/directory";
        File file =  new File(/* path_to_file + */ fileName);
        
        try {
            s3.putObject(bucketName, directorykey+"/"+fileName , file);
        } catch (AmazonServiceException e) {
            LOG.fatal("Failed to store file to bucket: " , e);
        } catch (AmazonClientException e) {
            LOG.fatal("Failed to store file to bucket: " , e);
        }

ERROR:

Answer 1

Name of the file TEST_FILE_(NAME).pdf won't be used here - this is path to a local file,

S3 isn't actually a filesystem, it's more like a big (hash table) associative array. The "Bucket" is the name of the hash table, and the "Key" is the key ( from here )

String fileName = "TEST_FILE_(NAME).pdf";
String directorykey = "path/to/amazon/directory";

// make sure, that the file exists in a location - provide a path to a file
File file =  new File(/* path_to_file + */ fileName);
try {
  s3.putObject(bucketName, directorykey + "/" + fileName , file);
} catch (AmazonServiceException e) {
  LOG.fatal("Failed to store file to bucket: " , e);
} catch (AmazonClientException e) {
  LOG.fatal("Failed to store file to bucket: " , e);
}
