Getting Data In

API json preview field

As seen in https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.3/RESTUM/RESTusing#Example_B:_JSON_response_format_...,
there is a field added to the json output that is called "preview". I've never seen it be anything other than "false". Does anyone know what this field is, and whether I can remove it from the output?
