Hi @Mateounited,

I can think of 2 options here:

1. You can use external service (like Integromat) to convert the proposed item name to lowercase/uppercase for example, and use the result as a unique item name. Then, before creating each new item, you do the same conversion and check the uniqueness.

2. You can try to use “Contains” instead of “Is equal”: it is not case sensitive (just discovered this - surprise for me). Please see here: [Case insensitive comparison?](https://forum.adalo.com/t/case-insensitive-comparison/2928)

Best regards, Victor.
