Don't worry yet. I have seen that before. There must be something corrupt in the json view. This json can the modified and "recover" the view. Share the json and recall what was the last change you did that lead to that error.

Hi Jespinmartin,

doesn't make sense, 151 KB for an empty file?  
try this, on the designer. Ctrl+Shift and right click on the view from the project property tree. select copy json and share.

When i copy the Json, it shows in the above picture. I can't able to paste it because the character is to large.

Are you trying to store a binary or a very large string on the view? Try to delete all the value of that item.  
When edited paste the json on an empty view with the same container type as the source view.

It looks like the JSON view got corrupted while designing. Try exporting the JSON, removing any large or broken data, and then importing it into a new view with the same type. If that doesn’t work, you might need to restore from a backup or reach out to support for help.

I also believe 8.1.44 has a fix for this to try to prevent this from happening in the future. You might want to upgrade if possible.
