I have a lengthy block of JSON I would like to paste into the body. I see that I can import a file or paste it into the Text area. Is it possible to then convert this pasted text into JSON so I can use the nice JSON editor? When I paste it into the Text area and then switch the JSON it overwrites the body (with a warning).
I guess the ultimate question here is, how can I get a pre-built piece of JSON into the JSON editor in Paw?
A sample of the text I would paste is:
{
"type": "user",
"id": "530370b477ad7120001d",
"user_id": "25",
"email": "[email protected]",
"name": "Hoban Washburne",
"remote_created_at": 1392731331,
"updated_at": 1392734388,
"session_count": 0,
"last_seen_ip" : "1.2.3.4",
"unsubscribed_from_emails": false,
"last_request_at": 1397574667,
"remote_created_at": 1392734387,
"created_at": 1392734388,
"updated_at": 1398269574,
"session_count": 179,
"user_agent_data": "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9",
"custom_attributes": {
"paid_subscriber" : true,
"monthly_spend": 155.5,
"team_mates": 1
}
Paw normally converts Text bodies that contains JSON into a JSON object. The reason why it doesn't work here is because your JSON is missing its last
}(invalid syntax). Otherwise, it should work fine.
