Make your first request
requireFieldsarrayOptional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `isAd`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a post that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge. On a paginated walk it applies to the first page only; later pages stay with the source that page chose, at the price it was quoted.
