• Prefixes are supported to simulate a folder structure

• A single or multiple files can be Uploaded to a folder using a prefix

• It can be decided via an the Upload Write Options:

  • to overwrite an existing object (Replace existing Object)

  • to cancel the operations in case an object with a similar name exists (Do not overwrite existing Object)
