We recommend you consider the following best practices when dealing with folders and/or files:

•Use alphabetic lowercase and/or numeric characters (a-z; 0-9)

•Underscore, period and/or dash characters are allowed

•Always start the entity's name with an alphabetic character

•Make sure that the files you want to upload only have up to 50 MB in size and 128 characters in length
