Hi Eric,

thank you for your answer.

My problem is, if you get the design doc, you get one line of json (no 
linebreaks, etc…).
How to reformat to 
1. a doc with linebreaks to easily edit the file
2. reformat two one line (or isn’T it necessary for the upload)?

all with command line tools (or automatic after downloading/uploading)?

Regards, Ronny
