I have an app that generates Json config files for another app. Currently I just curl the endpoint. What I’d like to do is to show them in the dashboard in a Monaco editor for further manual edit. Do we have a component for the dashboard that does that already?

Thx. Dashboard is Angular 1.0 isn’t it?

Strictly speaking, dashboard uses **AngularJS** which is completely different to Angular.

Keeping this difference in mind when searching the www will help you get the right info.
