Not possible to retrieve data from device using API

[MarkTerlien]

Summary

The API requires a device name in lower case but device manufacturer provides device name in upper case. Using lower case device name in in API request does not return any data while upper case device name in API request results the following error:

                        "code": 3

            ]
      }
}

Is there a workaround?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Make an application in The Things Stack
2. Register a device in The Things Stack
3. Add API key in The Things Stack
4. Run following Python script:

# Import libraries
import requests 

# Aurorisatie
AUTORISATIE = '<your api key>'
APPLICATION = '<your application>'
DEVICE_ID = '<your device id>'

# HTTP headers
headers = {
    'Accept': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'bearer ' + AUTORISATIE,
    "User-Agent": "curl/7.61.0" 
}

# Opstellen URL
url = 'https://eu1.cloud.thethings.network/api/v3/as/applications/' + APPLICATION + '/devices/' + DEVICE_ID + '/packages/storage/uplink_message'

# Uitvoeren HTTP request
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print(response)

"field": "device_id"

The device identifier and device name are two different fields. The former is a unique value with strict requirements (as you see here) and the device name is a general text value.
I think the issue here is that you are using the name to query device where you need to use the device ID.
