Accessing AWS S3 folder name in unicode using AWS command line util

Due to my ignorance, I named a folder on S3 in unicode a few years ago. I'm able to list objects without spaces easily, but I can't access any files/folders with spaces. I've tried delimiting the space with a \, but it didn't work.

Example folder path:

s3://my-folder/a-thing/إلى آخره

Command looks like:

aws s3 ls s3://my-folder/a-thing/إلى\ آخره

To escape the space, you need to add the delimiter before the space, not after. Additionally, the key of the object you are looking at ends in a / so you need to include that or add --recursive. So your particular command should look like this:

> aws s3 ls s3://folder-object/another/إلى \آخره/
2015-10-15 09:36:20          0 إلى آخره/
2015-10-15 09:37:40        152 إلى آخره/somefile.txt
