How to query a nested field in wordpress api using _fields param

I believe what you want to use is _fields= not _filter=

https://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?_embed&_fields=_links

I don’t believe you can make fields only show _embedded thought. Best I was able to do was to make it show _links which then also shows _embedded.

Hope this helps.
