Azure Apim schema validation is case sensitive

Question

I am currently using validate-content to validate the request body against api spec. when I set action="prevent" and allow-additional-properties="false", it is returns error when I pass property name with a different case in the request body. What can I do to ignore the case?

<validate-content unspecified-content-type-action="detect" max-size="102400" size-exceeded-action="prevent" errors-variable-name="requestBodyValidation"> <content type="application/json" validate-as="json" action="prevent" allow-additional-properties="false" /> </validate-content>

Vikram Sudhini Thanks for posting your question in Microsoft Q&A. The current implementation in Azure API Management does compare the property name in case sensitive way, and unfortunately, there is no config to change this behavior. Interestingly, I found Add support for comparing property names case-insensitively during validation PR merged with this ask in Newtonsoft.Json.Schema - .NET implementation.

If you are interested in this feature in APIM, I suggest you submitting it via https://aka.ms/apimwish and others with similar interests can upvote it too. This will help our product team prioritize the features and I will also pass your feedback internally.

I hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions.
