I pushed the "backup" feature in my bookmarks and it stored them in file format JSON. Yet When I asked to Import them back. I only see that bookmarks of HTML are accessible. 

      What am I to do?

You need to restore a JSON backup:

  • Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Restore > Choose File
