#6090 [BUG] FlyteFile from a remote path should be read correctly in a task Issue created by Future-Outlier Describe the bug right now, this can't work. from flytekit import task, workflow from flytekit.types.file import FlyteFile @task def create_ff() -> FlyteFile: full_s3_path = "s3://my-s3-bucket/test.json" ff = FlyteFile(full_s3_path) with open(ff, "r") as f: content = f.read() print(content) print(type(content)) return ff Expected behavior This should work.
