Unable to scroll through results while testing an API endpoint on RapidAPI

I’m currently experiencing an issue while testing an endpoint, specifically with the Yahoo Finance API. When I try to view the results, I’m unable to scroll through them, and I’m only able to see the maximum amount that can fit in the display box. This may seem like a trivial question, but it significantly hinders my ability to interact with the API since I can’t see what data is available to me. In the attached image, you can observe that I’m limited to viewing just what fits on the screen, and the scrolling functionality seems to be disabled. This situation was not an issue when I first started working with the API. Could this be a problem with my setup, or should I consider switching to a different web browser?

Hi Claire,

It sounds frustrating not being able to scroll through the results. Here are a few things you can try to solve the issue:

  1. Clear Browser Cache: Sometimes a full cache can cause page display issues. Clear your cache and cookies to see if the problem resolves.
  2. Try a Different Browser: Testing with another browser could help identify if this is a browser-specific issue. Browsers like Chrome or Firefox often handle dynamic content efficiently.
  3. Check Browser Extensions: Some extensions may interfere with page rendering. Try disabling extensions to see if it resolves the issue.
  4. Inspect or Use Developer Tools: Use your browser's developer tools to inspect the API response directly. You can see the entire data, bypassing the need for scrolling.
  5. Reconfigure the Layout: If possible, adjust the layout dimensions within RapidAPI settings, making the result box larger.

If none of these fixes the issue, it might be an update or bug on the RapidAPI platform. Checking their forums for similar issues can also be helpful. Let me know if you need further assistance!

Hey Claire,

Quick fix you might want to try: use the developer tools in your browser (right-click → Inspect) to check the API response directly. This way, you can view all the data without scrolling constraints. Just go to the 'Network' tab and filter by XHR to see the JSON results from your API calls.

If the issue persists, definitely test in another browser to rule out browser-specific glitches.

Good luck!
