Hi @gniqizeuy, thanks for the report. This is indeed a bug. We shouldn’t alter the displayed data. For what it’s worth, you can always use the “Raw” body view mode to see the response body as provided by the server:

---

Background: JSON doesn’t really support int64. We currently use JSON.stringify() under the hood to prettify the body, which means we parse the data, and JS alters the unsafe integer value.

Number.isSafeInteger(68164106661659011)  // → false

A simple test: add the following to the request body JSON editor and invoke “Prettify”:

{
  "foo": 68164106661659011
}

We need to prevent this alteration. Ideally, we’d also warn the user when unsafe integers appear in the request/response JSON.
