Describe the bug
The exporttags command with --output-file-format json produces a JSON file containing only the appVersion field. The actual tags are completely missing from the output. The text format works correctly.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Run
appinspector exporttags --output-file-format json --output-file-path .\tags.json
- Open
tags.json
- Observe the file contains only:
{
"appVersion": "Microsoft Application Inspector 1.9.55+0b8c96ee0b"
}
- No tags are present in the output
Expected behavior
The JSON output should contain all exported tags in a structured format, equivalent to the text format output which correctly lists all tags.
Screenshots
Operating Environment (please complete the following information):
- Application Inspector Version: 1.9.55 (latest on NuGet as of Feb 2026)
- OS: Windows
- Browser: N/A
- Browser Version: N/A
Additional context
Using --output-file-format text works correctly as a workaround and outputs all tags:
appinspector exporttags --output-file-format text --output-file-path .\tags.txt
Installed via dotnet tool install -g Microsoft.CST.ApplicationInspector.CLI.
