After a recent update (about a month ago), it seems that the Preview pane on the Network tab has quit rendering the response as a JSON object. Instead it outputs the response as a string. This was working as expected prior to the update.
We have been and still are sending the correct header type as suggested in this question - Chrome (43.0.2357.81) JSON tree in network preview panel
I've also found a few suggestions that this has been a problem in the past but alludes to the fact it was fixed? - Google Chrome - Dev Tools - Network Tab - Preview - JSON vs. Text
I've posted to Dev Tool's Twitter account as well as submitted an email/bug with no further input. Has anyone fixed this issue for version 45.0.2454.101 (64-bit) or the previous version?
Preview contains a preview of the resource, for example a rendered image or some source code. Response is similar to Preview and shows what was received from the server. Cookies (if any) shows cookies sent with the request. Timing contains information on how long a request actually took to download.
To view the response body to a request: Click the URL of the request, under the Name column of the Requests table. Click the Response tab.
It looks like this has been resolved as of Chrome Version 46.0.2490.71 (for Mac, haven't confirmed if this was an issue/solved for PC)
