I have a SharePoint online library that utilizes several lookup columns. The other day we started receiving errors in the modern view when trying to view the properties. The error we are getting is "Sorry, properties can not be displayed, having error: Error during serialization or deserialization using the JSON JavaScriptSerializer. The length of the string exceeds the value set on the maxJsonLength property.."
If I look at the library in classic view everything appears to be operating correctly, modern just seems to be the issue. Any ideas on where I should be looking to find the source of the problem?
I looked at the developer tools in Chrome (F12) and noticed there were a few 400 errors getting returned for the /GetList(@listUrl)/RenderListDataAsStream...... Not sure if that has anything to do with the problem or if it is just a symptom of the cause.

@Brian Meeuwenberg I ran into this one today. Did You ever find a solution?
I also found this post on GitHub

This is what I received from support:
I believe one of our lookup lists caused the number of characters returned to cause the issue. We needed to reduce our lookup list, and the error went away.
