Logic App Boolean Expression True not true

I have a Logic App expression that evaluates the condition correctly, but outputs True instead of true.

A subsequent POST HTTP action fails as the JSON payload that contains this value cannot parse True and requires true.

Key-value pair containing the expression:

"apiTicket": @{equals(body('Get_Ticket_Details')?['takenby'], 'Integration Agent')}

Runtime output:

"apiTicket": True

Error:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "InvalidRequestContent",
    "message": "The request content is not valid and could not be deserialized: 'Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: T. Path 'params.apiTicket', line 15, position 17.'."
  }
}

Microsoft reference guide states the equals function should return true or false, not True or False

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/logic-apps/workflow-definition-language-functions-reference#equals

I understand how to work around this error, but does anyone know why this function works like this?

Logic App equals() function gives True and False as the answer and not as true or false.

To overcome this you can simply you tolower() function as below:

Here, I have taken manually as True for apiTicket. You can use it dynamic value:

Change it to:

"apiTicket": tolower(equals(body('Get_Ticket_Details')?['takenby'], 'Integration Agent'))

Output:
