Install and use the JSONVue Chrome extension

The JSONVue is a chrome extension.

It formats the output of the Rest API endpoints.

You are going to see:

The browser show Rest API data The browser show Rest API data

By default, the browser shows the Rest API data in a non-readable format.

E.g.

Below is the sample Rest API endpoint of my website:

https://maheshwaghmare.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/

By visiting this URL, You’ll see all the posts as:

Install and use the JSONVue Chrome extension 1
All Posts in JSON format

Here,

You may confuse about what these data look like.

It is not readable which makes no sense.

The JSONVue chrome extension solves this issue very well.
