Hello Prefect, I try to use the SMB block, when I try to

get_directory

I got

Copy code

Exception has occurred: TypeError
object of type 'PosixPath' has no len()

Do you know how to use SMB block ? I also get this issue https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/6971 when I try to

put_directory

Thanks 🙂

Hey @Guillaume G!! Are you able to provide a minimal example of the code that is throwing that error? Also here is some documentation on the SMB block: https://docs.prefect.io/concepts/filesystems/?h=smb#smb https://docs.prefect.io/api-ref/prefect/filesystems/?h=#prefect.filesystems.SMB https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/27ae06a0ed2fb0601aaafcb9f88d1de2fdca0655/src/prefect/filesystems.py#L679

Hi, thank you for you answer, I use this code in my flow and the SMB block :

smb_block = SMB.load("datalake")

smb_block.get_directory("/test")

site-packages/fsspec/utils.py", line 379, in other_paths

assert len(paths) == len(path2)

TypeError: object of type 'PosixPath' has no len()

hmmm interesting. Would you mind adding that context to the existing Git issue that you linked above? This seems related but we will have our team look into it
