#49538 new enhancement

Can't get a subset of `_embedded` using `_fields`

Description

I'd expect to be able to limit which values get returned in embedded fields, the same way that I can with standard fields. e.g.,

​https://wordpress.org/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/8384?_fields=slug,_embedded.author.name&_embed

That would make the response faster and smaller.

  • Milestone changed from 5.5 to 5.6

Punting to 5.6, this still needs more work.

Punting back to Future Release, this hasn't seen a lot of activity.
