You can use dot notation to reference a nested data field of the response payload.
Then the data payload is going to just get these data fields.
{
  "status": "success",
  "data": {
    "url": "https://news.ycombinator.com/",
    "title": "Hacker News"
  }
}
This parameter has been designed to make API payload tiny as possible, improving response bandwidth timing.
