Hi all,

I want to be able to read in S3 logs from multiple folders within my bucket. For example, my prefix will be something like `prefix => "logs/2000/*/*.log"`. I heard that this feature is implemented in file inputs, but I have not had success when using it for S3. How can I do this/is this feature available for the S3 input?

Thanks!
