CT Data Inspector: JSON & Diff for Commercetools

Extract raw JSON, compare side-by-side diffs, search payloads, and export data directly from commercetools Merchant Center.

Instantly inspect, search, compare, and export the exact raw JSON data for any resource in the commercetools Merchant Center. When developing, testing, or debugging commercetools applications, developers and technical consultants frequently need direct access to the underlying platform JSON data—including custom fields, internal IDs, variant attributes, references, and nested channel prices. Instead of constructing custom Postman queries, logging into the CLI, or switching between tabs, CT Data Inspector gives you immediate visibility into your active Merchant Center resources in a single click. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ ✨ KEY FEATURES ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ Instant 1-Click Resource Extraction: Automatically detects and pulls raw platform JSON for Products, Product Types, Orders, Carts, Customers, Categories, Payments, Discounts, Channels, and Custom Types directly from your active Merchant Center tab. Side-by-Side JSON Diff & Comparison: Pin resources across different products, environments, or tabs. Visually highlight additions, removals, and modifications side-by-side with color-coded diff tracking. Deep In-JSON Search & Pruning: Quickly locate deeply nested properties with two intelligent modes: Filter Mode: Prunes the JSON tree in real time to show only properties matching your query while preserving structural hierarchy. Show All Mode: Highlights matches across all lines with Enter / Shift+Enter jumper navigation. Export to Excel (.xlsx) & JSON: Export individual payloads or side-by-side comparison tables directly into formatted Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheets or copy/download formatted JSON with one click. Manual Search & Multi-Region Support: Inspect resources by ID across all supported global cloud regions. Modern Developer UI with Dark & Light Themes: Crisp tokenized syntax highlighting with line numbers, expandable/collapsible nodes, and a seamless toggle between Dark and White themes. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ 🔒 PRIVACY & SECURITY FIRST ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ 100% Client-Side: Runs entirely in your browser memory. Zero Data Collection: No tracking, no telemetry, no analytics beacons, and no external servers. Safe Authentication: Leverages your existing, authenticated Merchant Center session cookie (mcAccessToken) strictly to call the official CTP proxy API. Tokens are never logged, never stored, and never sent anywhere else. ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ 📖 HOW TO USE ═══════════════════════════════════════════════ Navigate to any resource in the commercetools Merchant Center (e.g., a product or order detail page). Click the CT Inspector extension icon in your Chrome toolbar. View the formatted raw JSON immediately! Pin items to compare differences or export data to Excel with one click.
