When querying semi-structured data in Snowflake, the behavior towards case sensitivity is distinct between column names and the names of elements within the semi-structured data. Column names follow the general SQL norm of being case-insensitive, meaning you can reference them in any case without affecting the query. However, element names within JSON, XML, or other semi-structured data are case-sensitive. This distinction is crucial for accurate data retrieval and manipulation in Snowflake, especially when working with JSON objects where the case of keys can significantly alter the outcome of queries.
