You can enable case-insensitivity by using regexes in paths.

Given the following path:

/(?i)demo/api/getdata

The proxy would match the rule to these requests:

/demo/api/getdata
/DEMO/Api/getdata

You can view an example of this at work here.

I have raised a documentation concern and potentially a flag for ease-of-use regarding this here, as even with an example it can be confusing to others how this would affect sub-paths as well, since those too would be case-insensitive.
