Column formatting not showing when view shown in a List Web Part (Modern Page and List)
For the record, here is a test list with the first column rendered using my code and the second column rendered using the built-in color formatter.
And here is the same list embedded in a modern site page...
I've tried every suggestion in this thread and cannot get the List Web Part to display conditional formatting on a modern page. Like others, it works beautifully in the list view, just not on a modern page (where it would be most useful).
It's unfortunate. This is highly requested by our user base. I was preparing to introduce this feature to the power-users in our company, but I don't feel comfortable showing them a feature that feels only half-finished.
UPDATE: Column formatting is now working in our tenant. Thanks for fixing this!

Matt Hobbs This is very confusing. I have two modern communication sites. They are very simple sites. I applied the same exact (copied and pasted) JSON formatting to a view. It looks great when looking at the library.
I display the library with a Document Library Web Part, usingthe formatted view. On one site it works perfectly. On the other site it refuses to render. Colors and hovering behavior are the most affected. I see a lot of gray. Depending on the browser, hover may or may not work.
But why is this inconsistent between my two sites?
I would appreciate any insight to this.
