Sorry, not "_return_fields" but "$select". For example: /mgmt/tm/ltm/node?ver=11.5.0&$select=session,name { "kind": "tm:ltm:node:nodecollectionstate", "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/node?$select=session%2Cname&expandSubcollections=true&ver=11.5.0", "items": [ { "name": "node1", "session": "monitor-enabled" }]}
