During the creation of a SG Project the name was set in UPPER case: `TEST`  
This was an error so it was then edited to lower case: `test`  
Now I visualize it correctly in SG

The issue is that in the `before_app_launch` I define the context like so:

```python
project_path=tk.project_path
tk.context_from_path(project_path)

```

and I get `TEST` in upper case, instead.

In the Python Console I get the same result if defining my context from the `project_path` while if I use `context.project['name']` command I do get the lower case name `test`

Am I defining the `context` incorrectly? Why these difference?

Adding to this … here the issue again:

Any Idea?

I’ve even tried to set the Project Name through API

`shotgun.update("Project", 188, {"name": "test"})`

And still the issue persists.  
Is there any cached data I should “flush”?

Another strange thing is that this seems to be related **only** to the Primary config! 🤯

Have a look at the `tank_name` property, which corresponds to the name used for directories, etc.

Not sure what you mean …

`tank_name` is a field of my `project` entity and I don’t see how it can affect the `name` field which, as you can see from the [prior grabs](https://community.shotgridsoftware.com/t/project-name-case-cached/17195/4), differs in case if I query it with the `shotgun.find` command or the `context_from_path` command
