AWS Transfer Family now supports downloading multiple files and folders in web apps
AWS Transfer Family now lets web app users download multiple files and folders at once. End users can select any combination of files and folders and download them together in a single action. The download is delivered as a zip archive that preserves the original folder structure when unzipped.
You can get started by selecting files and folders in a location and choosing Download from the action menu. Previously, end users could download only one file at a time, and folders could not be downloaded at all. The web app shows the files to be downloaded and real-time progress with a success or failed status for each one.
Multiple-file download is available in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Chromium-based browsers such as Microsoft Edge. It is not currently supported in Safari, where end users can still download files one at a time. This capability is available in all AWS Regions where Transfer Family Web Apps is offered.
