documentation on wordpress.org.
But let’s have a look at this particular example:
https://demo.wp-api.org/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?per_page=5&tags=3
The 5
in there is the number of posts you want returned. The 3
is the id of the tag you want to limit the posts too.
If you want to limit to a category use categories
instead.
