Note: modifier idOnly is referred only to first layer of the results. For all other layers (e.g. nested results) only ids are returned in some cases, due to possible loops. Example: for community containing collections,  on second level the response contains only ids for some elements where multiple loops may be created (community->has_collection->has_community....). Other data is modified according to idOnly flag.
