Folder Name Casing Mismatch Between Bruno UI and Filesystem #8158

I have checked the following:

  • I have searched existing issues and found nothing related to my issue.

This bug is:

  • making Bruno unusable for me
  • slowing me down but I'm able to continue working
  • annoying
  • this feature was working in a previous version but is broken in the current release.

Bruno version

3.4.2

Operating System

macOS Tahoe 26.4.1

Describe the bug

Hi Bruno Team,

I'd like to report a bug where Bruno displays a folder name with incorrect casing compared to the actual folder name on disk. This is especially problematic when constructing paths in GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow files.


Bug Summary
Bruno UI capitalizes the first letter of a folder name ("Prod"), while the actual folder on disk is all lowercase ("prod"). This mismatch causes confusion and potential path errors in automation scripts.


Environment

  • Bruno Version: 3.4.2
  • OS: macOS Tahoe 26.4.1
  • Hardware: MacBook Air 13-inch, M3, 2024

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a Bruno collection folder named "prod" (all lowercase) on disk.
  2. Open the collection in Bruno.
  3. Observe that the folder is displayed as "Prod" (capital P) in the Bruno sidebar.
  4. Check the actual folder name in macOS Finder — it shows "prod" (lowercase).

Expected Behavior
The folder name displayed in Bruno should exactly match the folder name on the filesystem, including casing (e.g., "prod" should appear as "prod", not "Prod").

Actual Behavior
Bruno auto-capitalizes the folder name in the sidebar UI ("prod" → "Prod"), causing a mismatch with the real directory name.


Impact
When referencing collection folder paths in GitHub Actions YAML workflow files (e.g., for Bruno CLI / Newman runs), the displayed name in Bruno misleads users into using the wrong casing in their path strings, which can cause CI/CD pipeline failures on case-sensitive filesystems (Linux runners).


Please let me know if you need any additional details or screenshots.

Thank you,
Vishwanath
