Posted on by swmchau

when setting the FTP "List files in folder" action with folder name, whenever the folder contains space, ftp will not retrieve any files/folder under the folder. Replacing space with %20 does not work. Any idea? Thanks

You could try escaping the space with a \ like:

folder\ with \spaces

or enclosing the directory name in double quotes
"folder with spaces"

Thanks! Tried both but didn't work. So far it only works when there is no space.

I'm gonna try it out, but before I do, what about:
folder\u0020with\u0020spaces

You're right, it simply does not work. I guess it should be logged as a bug.
