Insomnia: Preview Mode: Visual Preview / Source Code outputting [] instead of JSON response
Describe the bug
I am testing my Rest APIs that sends back a JSON response. "Visual Preview" and "Source Code" shows [] as the response, white the "Raw Data" option shows the proper JSON response. If i hit the same API using Postman, the formatting shows properly. I am sharing the screencast of both Insomnia and Postman, may be this will help you get an idea of what is this happening. Also, attaching the header information so that you may know why is this happening.
Expected behavior
JSON response should show in a formatted manner.

Not sure where to look for the mimetype, but as per the header screenshot above, the response content type is application/json
