I am ultimately trying to automate some transformations on a weekly S3 file that is stored in gzip format. However, when I configured the Amazon S3 Download tool to download the it returns the following error message, and there is no option for a gzip file format.

This error does not present when I utilize the Input Data tool to read the file from my local machine, because of the gzip format option. Does anyone know a way to read a gzip file with the Amazon S3 Download Tool?

check the box that says "Treat Read Errors as Warnings"

If I check that box, the file does get read in but it looks like everything stays as encrypted.

I resolved the issue, by utilizing a python script to de-crypt the meta data of the file.

Could you share your script for decryption?
