      • getFields

        List<JsonPointer> getFields()
        Description copied from interface: Request
        Returns the list of fields which should be included with each JSON resource returned by this request. The returned list may be modified if permitted by this query request. An empty list indicates that all fields should be included.

        NOTE: field filtering alters the structure of a JSON resource and MUST only be performed once while processing a request. It is therefore the responsibility of front-end implementations (e.g. HTTP listeners, Servlets, etc) to perform field filtering. Request handler and resource provider implementations SHOULD NOT filter fields, but MAY choose to optimise their processing in order to return a resource containing only the fields targeted by the field filters.

        Specified by:
        getFields in interface Request
        Returns:
        The list of fields which should be included with each JSON resource returned by this request (never null).
