Data Transfer to Cloud bucket creates unwanted folders

I'm using data transfer to load files referenced in a tsv file on my own server.  The destination is a folder within a bucket.  I would expect it to put the retrieved file directly in that folder, but instead it creates a new folders underneath my bucket destination folder.

 

Example:

TSV file contains:

https://www.mydomain.com/dir1/dir2/filename.doc

Destination:

MyBucket

Folder:

MyFolder

 

After running the data transfer, it creates under "My Folder" a sub folder called "www.mydomain.com" and under that "dir1" and under that "dir2".  

 

So instead of accessing my file at:

bucket.storage.googleapis.com/dir1/dir2/filename.doc

The URL ends up being:

bucket.storage.googleapis.com/dir1/dir2/www.rustyzipper.com/dir1/dir2/filename.doc

 

I've looked through the docs & I can't find anything that explains this behavior or how to fix it.

 

Help!?

 

Thanks!


Rob
