Confusing requirements and output get_admin_list using the SDK - Guidance requested | Product Discussions

Hello all, I'm trying to gather a list of users (role agnostic) and include only a specific set of fields in my output, filtered by a last_login_on timeframe. When I attempt to do this through the API via requests.get(url) via a python script (aka without invoking the SDK) it works just fine with no extra required fields in the output. However, when using the SDK API Class, I am required to include 'role,username,password,email' otherwise I receive an error. To make matters more confusing, when I add the required fields, the output then doesn't include just those specified fields, it includes all fields and ignores what I'm asking for. This leads me to two questions: Am I missing something regarding the SDK's logic or use? ... paraphrased... Why can't I only request the fields I care about like with the regular requests.get API calls? What benefit is there to requiring field for a "get"? Thanks for your responses in advance, Frank https://www.logicmonitor.com/support-files/rest-api-developers-guide/sdks/docs/#api-LM-getAdminList doc (for reference and websearchability) From the above link -
