You might want to implement this in your BaseController. This is one of the possible solutions:

class BaseController extends Controller {

    protected $fields;

    public function __construct(){

        if (Input::has('fields')) {
            $this->fields = Input::get('fields');
        }
    }
}

After that $fields could be accessed in every route which is BaseController child:

class AccountApiController extends \BaseController {

    public function index()
    {
        dd($this->fields);
    }
}
