It doesn't work for me. I get the "No CMP API found on this webpage" message on all kind of websites (iabeurope.eu, google.com, onetrust.com...). I've also tried in incognito and same result.

Very very useful extension for anyone dealing with GDPR / Consent management.

In the latest version 2.2.6, we have resolved two key issues: 1. Previously, at the initial CMP state (where CMP is displayed but no user action has been taken), our validator detected the presence of a CMP API but failed to populate any results from TCF API calls. With this update, the CMP validator will correctly populate the summary and API sections with values retrieved from TCF APIs. 2. Since version 2.2.4 (released on December 7, 2023), our CMP validator attempted to load a file from https://vendor-list.consensu.org/v3/archives/vendor-list-vundefined.json in cases where there were errors loading basic CMP data, resulting in a 403 Forbidden error. This issue has been rectified."
