Thanks Mark and Ahyoung. It turns out that the notebook json I was trying to import was too large, this is the error message: org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.api.MessageTooLargeException: Text message size [1173911] exceeds maximum size [1024000]. I had a large output embedded in the json file.
In terms of different browsers, I get mixed results. I tried with the URL Ahyoung provided below with chrome on MacBook Pro, got same error (unable to fetch url), then I downloaded the json file to local drive, imported as json file, succeed. Then I tried to import from URL again, it worked. Tried with firefox, import from URL failed with "Unable to fetch from URL” error, import as json worked. anyway, a more user friendly error message/status will help.
