The Environment variables list the PLATFORM variable:

PLATFORM - platform name set on Build tab of project settings (or through platform parameter in appveyor.yml);

Feodor confirmed in https://github.com/appveyor/ci/issues/1278#issuecomment-274881664 comment that

environment variables have been always case-insensitive.

But, is the platform parameter in appveyor.yml case-insensitive too?

In appveyor.yml matrix, which one is correct, upper-case?

    - PLATFORM: x64

or lower-case

    - platform: x64

or does not matter, because both variable & parameter are case-insensitive?

   It doesn't matter. Both lower- and upper-case should work.

   Fedor, thanks. So, both are case-insensitive. The explicit use of upper and lower case in the docs suggests the case may be relevant.
