## Include relations from specific fields

If the content type footballTeam had more than one `relation field`, e.g. for its trainers or a city, we would query the relations only for the field `players`.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JavaScript" %}

```javascript
// Define query
var query = {
  "includes": {
    "*.fields.players": 1
  }
};

// Stringify and URI Encode the Object
query = encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(query));

// Submit the query
window.fetch(`https://api.cmft.io/v1/<repo>/footballTeams?query=${query}`, {
  method: 'get',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': '<apiKey>'
  }
})
  .then(function (response) { return response.json() })
  .then(function (data) {
    console.log(data)
  })
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="CURL" %}

```bash
curl -g 'https://api.cmft.io/v1/<repo>/footballTeams?includes[*.fields.players]=1' \

## Including Assets in Documents

There is a easy way to have assets shipped within a field of a document, if you don't want to collect it from includes.&#x20;

You can do this for collections or single documents. In the following example we'll fetch a collection of football players and want to have their pictures included within the document. This makes iterating the list, e.g. for a list template, much more comfortable.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JavaScript" %}

```javascript
// Define query
var query = {
  "embedAssets": true
};

// Stringify and URI Encode the Object
query = encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(query));

// Submit the query
window.fetch(`https://api.cmft.io/v1/<repo>/footballPlayers?query=${query}`, {
  method: 'get',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': '<apiKey>'
  }
})
  .then(function (response) { return response.json() })
  .then(function (data) {
    console.log(data)
  })
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="CURL" %}

```bash
curl -g 'https://api.cmft.io/v1/<repo>/footballPlayers?embedAssets=true \
  -H 'Authorization: <apiKey>'
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="URL" %}

```http
https://api.cmft.io/v1/<repo>/footballPlayers?key=<apiKey>&embedAssets=true

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.comfortable.io/apis/rest-api/examples/includes.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
