How to access images with special characters in the name from an S3 bucket?

If the image filenames in the S3 bucket have special characters, ImageKit, in some cases, might be unable to fetch such images and return a 404 error.

For example, let’s assume there is a key, image%2Bexample.jpg, in your S3 bucket & the request is made using image+example.jpg in the URL. In this case, ImageKit tries to fetch the image+example.jpg object from the S3 bucket, resulting in a 404 error as this object does not exist.

You can refer to our docs for solutions to overcome this issue.
