Just to be clear — because it really wasn't to me — if you are constructing the GET request yourself the query parameter for the request mask is requestMask.includeField. The nested JSON is flattened to a keypath. So the complete connection list GET request would be something like:

https://content-people.googleapis.com/v1/people/me/connections?requestMask.includeField=person.names,person.addresses,person.email_addresses,person.organizations,person.phone_numbers
