Debugging

A vast majority of getting a Setster Studio embed up and running is configuring a JSON settings file to meet the specs required by the app for proper parsing. There are a handful of common mistakes to avoid, but the two most common include issues with your settings file.

  • Invalid JSON
  • An incorrectly structured Schema that doesn't match the schema definition required by the app

Validate Schema​

If you're running into other errors but have a valid JSON file, you'll need to check that the JSON you provided matches what the app requires by testing it against the schema. You can do so by pasting the JSON schema and settings JSON file into an online JSON schema validator. The validator will then point to what lines in your settings file contain issues that don't match the JSON schema formatting.

Schema Validator​

Paste your settings.json content into the codeblock below and hit the 'Test JSON' button to validate your settings file and determine if there are any issues with your settings configurations.

Enter your Settings JSON

Validate JSON​

If you run into an issue getting your embed to work correctly, first check that your JSON doesn't contain misformatted content. Run your JSON file through a JSON validator online to ensure you're not missing parenthesis, closing brackets, or end quotes. Most code editors will catch these issues, but the code sandboxes are not as effective at catching them.
