| ### 17.2. Casing | |||
| - Acronyms SHOULD follow the casing conventions as though they were regular words (e.g. Url). | |||
| - All identifiers including namespaces, entityTypes, entitySets, properties, actions, functions and enumeration values SHOULD use lowerCamelCase. | |||
| - HTTP headers are the exception and SHOULD use standard HTTP convention of Capitalized-Hyphenated-Terms. | |||
| - Ideally, HTTP headers are sent over hte wire using lowercase letters a the HTTP/2 specification mandates this ([RFC](https://http2.github.io/http2-spec/#HttpHeaders)). For backwards compatibility, services should treat request headers in a case-insensitive fashion. New services should send response headers in all lowercase. For legacy services (which do not send lowercase response headers), the client should process the response headers in a case-insensitive fashion. If a client converts headers into a map/dictionary where the lanaguge does not support looking up keys in a case-insensitive way, the client library should lowercase the header keys when adding them to the map/dictionary. | |||
