How to View Absolute Full Path of Amazon S3 Objects?

Bucket Explorer provides facility to its users to view object list for selected bucket in these two formats -
• Folder View
• Show Full Path
By default the object listing is done in "Folder View" .

Folder View - It lists the object similar to local file system .

Show Full Path - This will list all the objects at root level instead of supernumerary hierarchy. As we do not have folder structure at Amazon, so "Show Full Path" will list the object with their full path without sustaining the folder structure.

Example : If user selects a bucket ' A ' that contains a folder A1 and some objects as a1, a2, a3 at root level and b1 ,b2 in folder A1 , then list of object according " Show full path " format will be-

  • A1/
  • A1/b1
  • A1/b2
  • a1
  • a2
  • a3

If A1 contains one sub folder A1.1 then object listing for b1 would be -

  • A1 / A1.1
  • A1 / A1.1 / b1

 

To list the object in 'Show Full Path' format - :

  1. Run Bucket Explorer as usual.
  2. Select any bucket from bucket listing.
  3. It lists the object in object table.
  4. By default the object listing is done in "Folder View" to change it to "Show Full Path" format, click the "Show Full Path" button at the top right corner of object table window.
  5. It displays the object list in full path format.
