tried a few different iterations but all seem to do the same

Nico Neumann · Answer

I can reproduce it ```from prefect filesystems import S3 block = S3 bucket path= my bucket example dir block save example block overwrite=True block2 = S3 load example block block2 get directory ```

Nico Neumann · Answer

I think S3 is using prefect + s3fs not sure why it crashes prefect aws offers S3Bucket which works for me ```from prefect aws credentials import AwsCredentials from prefect aws s3 import S3Bucket aws credentials = AwsCredentials region= YOUR REGION block = S3Bucket bucket name= my bucket basepath= example dir aws credentials=aws credentials block save example block overwrite=True block2 = S3Bucket load example block block2 get directory ```

Stephen Herron · Answer
