But the feature request for allowing data-uri is under security review now and if it gets accepted will be out soon. @rforb The visualizer uses nested web-view internally and as such do not provide any security u…

I second this. I’m trying to display a Base64-encoded image from the response but the CSP is stopping me from doing so. Would love to see this being added soon.
