Team,

I found out that if i create a host record either by Infoblox GUI or by API by providing name in capitals like below

curl -k -u admin:ffggggg -H 'content-type: application/json' -X POST "https://172.10.145.182/wapi/v2.7.3/record:host?_return_fields%2B=ipv4addrs,extattrs&_return_as_objec..." -d '{"name":"AIASVR1","configure_for_dns":false,"extattrs":{"IP Description":{"value":"appserver"},"Requested_By":{"value":"fid.c2 csa ipam"}},"ipv4addrs": [{"ipv4addr":"func:nextavailableip:10.10.10.0/24,AI-UAT","configure_for_dhcp": false}],"view": "default.AI_UAT"}'

the name field of the host record always shows in small like aiasvr1.

Is there any way I can ask the Infoblox tool to save the name in case sensitive form especially via API ??
