System Software NIAuth username restrictions

Just curious as I didn't find it documented in the help.
Are there any restrictions on username or passwords for niauth?

 

We had tried creating a username of "Manager" and realized after a day of debugging the username actually saves as "manager". Is this an intended restriction? The web configuration and management client will login successfully with "Manager". And you cannot create a second username of "manager". When we were trying to login with "Manager" using our javascript library it was failing. I haven't tried a system configuration session within LabVIEW.


I realized after that every previous username we've created is lowercase only but I don't recall landing on this issue before.

 

We are using system config 17.5 with labview 2016 sp1. We are using the niauth.js that someone had uploaded a few years back from this forum.

 

Example shows username as lowercase only

For those curious, this is the original post I found the JS from.
