What does the Power BI Theme JSON Validator check?
It checks valid JSON syntax plus a focused set of common theme properties, including the theme name and typical color fields. It is designed to catch frequent mistakes quickly in the browser.
Does this replace validation against the complete Power BI theme schema?
No. This is a quick pre-import validator, not a complete implementation of every Power BI theme schema rule. Power BI Desktop remains the final authority on whether a theme imports and behaves as expected.
