OData and case sensitivity

I've been messing with the OData and realized that URIs are case sensitive. .../Northwind.svc/Products != .../Northwind.svc/products Is this done on purpose? is there a way to make it case insensitive?

Is OData case sensitive?

OData API filter value which you are selecting for $FILTER parameter is always case sensitive.

What is $select in OData?

The $select option specifies a subset of properties to include in the response body. For example, to get only the name and price of each product, use the following query: Console Copy. GET http://localhost/odata/Products?$select=Price,Name.

What are some of the things that an OData service contains?

A URL used by an OData service has at most three significant parts: the service root URL, resource path and query options.

The recommended solution is to either use the supported OData functions toupper or tolower to work out the case sensitivity issues (when using a filter$ command) and get the full result set.

I wrote a brief post explaining this a bit further in detail:
