Force Chrome to show Json response formatted as tree structure

Question

I can make my app to "force" Chrome (v 39.0.2171.99 m) to show http response as Json (instead of XML).

How do I get the Json in a tree structure (instead of a string)?

Checking the Preview tab in dev tools doesn't work for me.

I could paste the Json string into JsonLint, but I want to know a more direct route, if there is one.

it always formatted me json strings so it was readable (I mean comprehensible) — Xavier Norbal, Jan 23 '15 at 14:43

I've been using this extension (It's called JSON Viewer and the source is available at github) for years, it works great.

I don't know who's the developer is but if he ever reads this: Thanks for taking the time to develop such a timesaving tool!

The extension link is broken and blog post throwing a server error. – Srdjan Donevski Nov 30 '16 at 11:40

@SrdjanDonevski thanks for the heads up, answer updated. The old version was removed due to a vulnerability but there's a fork online, fixed and totally secure. – Diogo Raminhos Nov 30 '16 at 16:16
