WordPress JSON API returns normal site page in html. How do I get it to give me JSON?

I’m likely doing it wrong, but when I form my requests for a WordPress installation at http://www.example.com/ like this:

http://www.example.com/index.php?rest_route=/my/rest/route/here

I end up getting proper responses back.

I had a heck of a time figuring this out and ended up grokking a URL formatted like that in the HTML returned to me. I was expecting to make requests as http://www.example.com/wp_json/wp/v2/my/rest/route/here , but I only got HTML responses.
