how to get last modified filename using boto3 from s3

I want to get the last modified file from an Amazon S3 directory. I tried to only print that file's date only now, but I am getting the error:

TypeError: 'datetime.datetime' object is not iterable

import boto3
s3 = boto3.resource('s3',aws_access_key_id='demo', aws_secret_access_key='demo')

my_bucket = s3.Bucket('demo')

for file in my_bucket.objects.all():
    # print(file.key)
    print(max(file.last_modified))

you will get last modified filename and folder names using boto3 from s3

reference for function tools and reduce - link

from functools import reduce
import boto3
# replace with your access key and secret key

#s3 = boto3.resource('s3', aws_access_key_id='demo', aws_secret_access_key='demo')

import boto3
s3_client = boto3.client('s3', aws_access_key_id='demo', aws_secret_access_key='demo')
response = s3_client.list_objects_v2(Bucket='bucket_name', Prefix='subfolder name')
#Replace with your bucket name and subfolder name
all = response['Contents']        
latest = max(all, key=lambda x: x['LastModified'])
print(latest)
#print(latest.values())
list(reduce(lambda x, y: x + y, latest.items()))
a = list(reduce(lambda x, y: x + y, latest.items()))
print(a[1])

output

# if you have one sub folder, you will get output in this below format
subfolder/filename.format
# if you having more than one sub folders, you will get output in this below format
subfolder1/subfolder2/filename.format

you need to get last modified folders and filed name based on your bucket name

Then refer this below changes

#instead of this code
response = s3_client.list_objects_v2(Bucket='bucket_name', Prefix='subfolder name')
#remove prefix and subfolder name
response = s3_client.list_objects_v2(Bucket='bucket_name') 
#Replace with you bucket name

There you have a simple snippet. In short you have to iterate over files to find the last modified date in all files. Then you have print files with this date (might be more than one).

from datetime import datetime

import boto3

s3 = boto3.resource('s3',aws_access_key_id='demo', aws_secret_access_key='demo')

my_bucket = s3.Bucket('demo')

last_modified_date = datetime(1939, 9, 1).replace(tzinfo=None)
for file in my_bucket.objects.all():
    file_date = file.last_modified.replace(tzinfo=None)
    if last_modified_date < file_date:
        last_modified_date = file_date

print(last_modified_date)

# you can have more than one file with this date, so you must iterate again
for file in my_bucket.objects.all():
    if file.last_modified.replace(tzinfo=None) == last_modified_date:
        print(file.key)
        print(last_modified_date)
