Ideal behavior would act like SSMS and allow case-insensitive references to column names since some have all caps, some have CamelCase and some are lowercase. It can be difficult to remember which is used in a particular source system table, especially when columns in a single table can have multiple cases applied. SQL Endpoint requires exact case matching which causes headache and confusion for end users.

RE: Allow Case-Insensitive references to column names in SQL Endpoint

Kaila, I agree and have upvoted your idea. For clarity, your example is Pascal Case where the first letter is capitalized. Camel case looks like this: camelCase.
