Constituent API Side-Loading

Hello,

We'd like to use side-loading to grab constituent data along with it's relations/relationships data in one API call. This doesn't seem possible but perhaps I'm missing something. I've searched the community for keyword sideloading/side-loading and haven't found any reference to this.

If it's not clear what I'm referring by ‘side-loading’ here's an example from Zendesk's api documentation.

keywords: sideloading, side-loading, ‘side loading’, side, loading

    Hello, this feature (similar to GraphQL requests or OData's “expand” concept) is not currently supported (unless explicitly listed in the endpoint reference). So in order to get constituent relationship details, you'll need to make separate requests.

    If you're willing, we'd like to capture this feedback in our idea bank to help with future planning.

    I'll leave this open for awhile. If anyone else has come across this and has an interesting workaround I would love to see some examples.
