Query parameters

fieldsstring

A comma separated list of fields to include in the response. Every value in the list should either consist of a top-level property name (excluding the items envelope for endpoints returning lists) or refer to a property of a top-level property of type object, in the following form: "toplevelpropertyname.subpropertyname". When this query parameter is omitted, default resource representations are returned (excluding fields marked as optional). The same applies to nested objects when just specifying the top-level property name, without explicitly listing sub-property names. When specifying the fields query parameter, only the specified fields are returned. The id property is always returned.
