When this happen just recheck the option that everything will work again * Works on local files (if you enable this in chrome://extensions) Features * Syntax highlighting * 26 built-in themes * Collapsible nodes * Clickable URLs (optional) * URL does not matter (the content is analysed to determine if its a JSON or not) * Inspect your json typing "json" in the console * Hot word `json-viewer` into omnibox (type `json-viewer` + TAB and paste your JSON into omnibox, hit ENTER and it will be highlighted) * Toggle button to view the raw/highlighted version * Works with numbers bigger than Number.MAX_VALUE * Option to show line numbers * Option to customize your theme * Option to customize the tab size * Option to configure a max JSON size to highlight * Option to collapse nodes from second level + Button to unfold all collapsed nodes * Option to include a header with timestamp + url * Option to allow the edition of the loaded JSON * Option to sort json by keys * Option for C-style braces and arrays * Scratch pad, a new area which you can type/paste JSON and format indefinitely using a button or key shortcut.
