Jipy Extension

Jipy allows you to format JSON on any page. Unlike other formatters, Jipy does not rely on the whole page being returned as JSON. Jipy works by letting you choose the portion that you want to format. This allows you to format any embeded JSON.

How to Use
==========
1. Highlight JSON payload (if the highlight is not a valid JSON, Jipy tries its best to infer the payload)
2. Choose one of the following way to format
- Click { } button on top right corner
- Use hotkey (Alt+F)
- Right Click to bring up context menu
3. Enjoy ;-)

David Accola (ID: 000000b98124df66) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/14/2022 This is perfect, and super useful! (If you're trying it out on a tab you had open before you added the extension to Chrome, reload that tab.)
