Lakehouse case sesitive
I have two data warehouses in two different workspaces. Using a shortcut I use DW2 in DW1. The shortcut is created in a lakehouse. Things are working and I can access tables from DW2 in DW1. Both DWs are case INsinsetives but the lakehouse is case sinsetive so I lose case sinsetivity of DW2. Shortcut in Lakehouse changes the sinsetivity of source DW2. How Can I use DW2 in DW1 withoutout losing the case insensivity?

Lakehouse only supports camel case ( case insensitive ) because it uses python/scala behind the scene. This is the reason you would see such behavior. Leave it as it is. Cheers..

Thanks you Patel,
It seems I did not explain the issue properly. ILakehouse is case Sesitive and shortcut created in lakehouse makes the source DW case sesitive. I do not want that. My Source in WS2 is case Insensitive and I want to use in a DW in WS1 case INSENSITIVE

Hello vasalari,
Fabric Lakehouse not support case Insensitive.
Maybe you can adjust your logic a little and use a Fabric Warehouse. Fabric supports case Insensitive.
This is not possible in the standard Gui, but you can use the Fabric API to create the warehouse in Case Insensitive.
Maybe this will help you.
Here an Example:
URL : https://api.fabric.microsoft.com/v1/workspaces/#WORKSPACEID#/items
{ "type": "Warehouse", "displayName": "ciwarehouse", "description": "Thats a cool Warehouse with CI", "creationPayload": { "defaultCollation": "Latin1_General_100_CI_AS_KS_WS_SC_UTF8" } }Best regards

I understand lakehouse is case Sensitive and we only can create Shortcut in Lakehouse. My question is anybody found a solution for it or MS is working to create shoetcut from Warehouse. Fixing tens of thousand of codes and 100s of SSIS packages and taking care of all string comparison is not an easy task.
