   Hi Swapnil,

   Thanks for the post.

   We currently have a work around for the issue you are currently facing which may be of use.

   It is possible to include ToLower() in the where clause when quering the endpoint. ie. ?Name.ToLower()=="{name}’

   See the following commultiy thread for more information: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60265042/can-xero-contacts-be-filtered-by-name-case-insensitive

   That would definitely improve usability, especially for applications that rely on quick contact lookups. I recently came across while researching how organised public data can simplify searches https://dallascountyassessor.org Making the API case insensitive would reduce unnecessary errors and create a more consistent experience for everyone using it.
