Hi There,

Is that any way to support the uppercase name of the indexing document,  
It seems that it only supports the lowercase name of the document.  
e.g. we would like to support {'orderID': 100001}, it only support {'orderid': 100001} now.  
Because our existing name of JSON for both Frond and Back End are all camel style. There would be a lot of places need to change.

Is that any good suggestion?

Hello,

Only lowercase field names are supported at this time. We don't have plans to change this, but I'm happy to take this as a note for the team if it's important to you.

That would be a nice feature can support camel style (not only lowercase) field names documents. Since the field name of documents half and half % maybe lowercase or camel style. Thanks.
