Just a quick suggestion - may be it would be better to store everything in lower case as long as case is ignored in the UI? I've spent few hours trying to figure out, why foreign keys ingestion is not working, and it appeared that I ingested columns in the original (upper) case and foreign key information was in lower case. As long as everything in the UI was in the lower case, that was not obvious at all 😅

many databases have case sensitive names. This will cause issues

Then I'd say they should not be converted to lower case in the UI

that I agree with.

@handsome-belgium-11927 This is definitely not an ideal experience.... I agree in the UI we should reflect the natural casing of fields so that this is more obvious
Thanks for the great feedback here. Definitely want to avoid others facing this challenge
